"I called Moore Heating to come out and give us an estimate to replace our nearly 30 year old boiler and 18 year old hot water heater.  Tom came out on a Saturday and spent over two hours discussing options.  I was impressed with his knowledge and ability to explain how the different types of systems would perform in our situation.  I told him I would be getting two more estimates and would let him know if they were competitive. 

I got the other estimates and decided to go with a 95% efficient sealed combustion boiler and an indirect fired hot water heater from Moore Heating. 

The day of the installation, Tom and Jerry, the lead installer showed up on time and began working.  The outside temperature at the time was -10 degrees and by the end of the day we had heat and hot water.  Jerry came out the following day to finish the job and when I came home to inspect the work, I was completely impressed with the quality of his work.  All pipes were plumb, horizontal  and vertical.  Very clean install!  Extreme pride in his workmanship was obvious and I let him know that was the first thing I noticed.

Since the install there have been no problems and Tom's follow up throughout the process has been superb.

I had a gas fireplace insert installed by Moore Heating about ten years ago and it turned out that Jerry had done the install back then.  Have never had a problem in ten years.

Great job Moore Heating!

"We have Frontpoint at two houses. We had been looking for ways to cut our monthly expenses (Frontpoint is approx. $100 per month total), so I called them to find out what I could do. They informed me that I was under contract for another year, and that I cannot get out of the contract without an early termination fee that is equal to the cost of the service. I'm a little disappointed, because the upfront cost of the system was very expensive ($1,000+) for each house, so it seems odd that I would get sucked into this contract. Nevertheless, I forgot that I signed up for this with them. My calendar is marked for the day that my service ends, and I will be switching to a company that charges about half of what they do. They have OK customer service and are very responsive, but the wireless system had some issues with reception in my house due to a fireplace, and then they didn't want to work with me to get that resolved. They're OK, but I can't really recommend them."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on stove type, venting complexity, and additional features like hearth pads or decorative finishes.

Like any other household appliance, electric fireplaces can wear out after about 10 to 20 years. With more frequent use, the parts will wear out quicker, and you may get just 7 to 10 years out of a well-loved electric fireplace. Fortunately, electric fireplaces come with a lower upfront installation cost compared to alternatives like gas, so you can install a replacement for less.

Chimney crowns may be stone, concrete, or metal but most crowns are made of concrete. It’s not recommended to build chimney crowns with mortar (which is different from concrete) due to it’s weaker composition (especially when exposed to the outside elements). Most chimney crowns are custom made to fit your home’s specific chimney.

The answer can vary widely based on a home's age and design. As with any type of remodeling project, assume that every structure is load-bearing until confirming otherwise with a structural engineer. Almost all modern homes have chimneys that are fully independent from the rest of the home's framing. As a result, they don't bear any load beyond their own weight. However, many historic homes built prior to the 1900s contain load-bearing chimneys that tie into the surrounding roof and floor joists. If possible, use a home's blueprints or look for chimney connections that indicate load-bearing qualities to get your answer.

Replacing older chimneys or fireplaces, like wood-burning stoves, with something more eco-friendly can actually increase the value of your home. Some homeowners opt to remove chimneys as they pursue LEED certification, which may also increase the value of your home. But in general, many potential buyers actually look for operational fireplaces in homes, so removing a chimney and fireplace could decrease your home’s value by up to $5,000.
