Try your freinds, neighbors, coworkers and relatives (in that order). They will be the best to tell you. I know that it's not high tech, but it's the most accurate and trustworthy way.
I read the rules and dont think I am breaking any, but feel free to close, etc if this post does.
Does anyone know a good resource for finding recommened HVAC techs/companies? Maybe like a rating or review site?
Specifically I am looking for a knowledgeable haetpump tech in North NJ, but don't really want to take my chances with the yellow pages, etc.
Thanks in advance.

Thats what i figured. Just thought there might be something out there, or even a tech from my area on here.
The only ppl I know with heatpumps are the ones in my condo complex, and so far its been: "Yeah I know this guy, is a friend of a friend and he works on these things on the side." type of thing.
I havent been impressed with the attempts to contact any of these guys.
Do us and yourself a favor and dont hire ANYONE on the side. you give up alot more than you save. (This coming from a guy who used to do some side work).
exactly why I didnt/wont. I want a professional, thats the reason for the post. not looking for some "guy".
ive been reading here for a while now and from reading the posts i can imagine lots of places from diff shops not being up to par.
One option is to see if your utility has any affiliates that provide home products and services.
<<flame suit on>>
Look for a factory authorised company in whatever brand you have.......even the best companys out there might have a bozo on the payroll,so if you're not satisfied you can call the manufacturor for a recommended company also. JMO
If everything was always done "by the book"....the book would never change.
NATE
Here's one place, see if there is any NATE trained heat pump techs in your area.
Thanks, mathwei and everyone. One the NATE site it turns out one of the outfits right in my town is listed. I guess maybe Ill give them a call and check them out.
Did you try clocking on "find a contractor" at the top of the page?
Try DeSesa out of Bloomfield. They do a lot of heatpump work.
