Outstanding service. Our old water heater gave out and was leaking on the floor. He put in the new one that we had provided. We have used him in the past. He's very busy, so it can take some time to get into his work schedule, but he always does a thorough, professional job.

Unlike the furnace install, the hot water heater installation was a mess. First, the salesman didn't notice that the new heater couldn't be placed in the same location as the old one because it couldn't vent there. Other companies had noticed the problem during their estimates. This caused...

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

Leaks, poor airflow, reduced efficiency, and loop blockages are common problems requiring service.

A geothermal heat pump system will take about 10 years to pay for itself, and it has a life span of anywhere from about 25 to 50 years. Installing a geothermal heat pump will cost about $14,250 upfront, but it can reduce your energy bills by around 65% when compared to a conventional HVAC system.

While it's generally safe to stay in a home with a coolant leak if your home is properly ventilated, it's important to have a professional come out to assess the situation right away. You should evacuate your home if you notice any powerful fumes. Additionally, you should leave your home if you are experiencing headaches or dizziness.
