"Very happy and satisfied with the service and products provided. Absolutely top quality appliance diagnosis and repair. Very timely, responsive, professional and great value. Wish I had known about this company earlier this is definitely the only company I will be going to for appliance repair from this time forward. Need to get word and publicity out about this company â they are relatively new in area and need everyone to know they are out there and do a really excellent job. This is only company in area that I could find (and I checked a lot of companies) that does dryer vent duct cleaning anymore and after cleaning vent duct they follow-up by making sure dryer works correctly which was fortunate in my case cause blocked dryer vent duct was only part of my dryer challenges â so glad they did a thorough job as I am confident now my 20 + year old dryer will last me for many more years. Very good on all appliances."

Fireplaces questions, answered by experts

Well-seasoned hardwoods like oak, maple, hickory, and ash are the cleanest woods to burn in a fireplace. When properly dried, these woods have low moisture content, allowing them to burn hotter and produce less smoke, which minimizes creosote buildup. Ensure the wood is seasoned for at least six months for optimal burning.

No, not all chimneys need a damper. However, most chimneys do, especially in newer homes. Most gas-burning fireplaces cannot function safely without a damper. Only some older wood-burning fireplaces can function safely without one. A chimney without a damper is essentially just an open hole in the roof of your home.

DIY is not recommended due to safety and venting requirements. Professional installation ensures proper operation and compliance with codes.

Pellet stoves are much more energy efficient than traditional fireplaces, and the pellets they burn create fewer emissions, leaving indoor and outdoor air cleaner. Plus, the biomass pellets are made from recycled materials, making them even more eco-friendly. You can also adjust the temperature of a pellet stove and go about most of your day without needing to tend to it.

Yes, there are regulations on using wood stoves, particularly concerning emissions and installation standards. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) sets emission limits for wood stoves to ensure they burn cleaner and more efficiently. Additionally, local building codes may have specific requirements for installation and venting, so it's essential to check with local authorities before installing or upgrading your stove.
