"I discussed the scope of work and the type of device with Kerry Adkins via email and phone.  He also sent me links to the Eaton site to read the manufacturer's info on the device.  Getting a better understanding of the capabilities of this type of system helped me greatly in deciding whether or not to do the work.
Once I decided to have the device installed, I set up the date/time.  Jimmie Jenkins, who has been at our house several times, arrived on time.  We discussed the device and his installation work before he began and Jimmie got started.  He finished within an hour or so and also pointed out some limitations in my grounding system.  It did not need to be done to install this equipment, but Jimmie explained the steps needed to improve the system and gave me a quote in case I choose to have that work done later.
Good job by Jimmie and Adkins.

"Very pleased...I was called in advance of my service window to advise the tech was on his way. He arrived within 10 minutes and I showed him the thermostat and the unit to be serviced. He went right to work and checked the unit in the crawl space. Then he checked the condenser to ensure there were no cooling leaks and cleaned the unit. The tech was very polite and extremely professional. I had used Ethridge last year when I had an issue and was pleased, That is why I chose them again. Daniel did a great job!"

"They began wok in January but its not done yet. We already have a radon detector and we have a radon problem and he brought in instruments to do the measurements to confirm my issue. We went ahead to have a barrier installed and fans and all that. January weather isn't good for any service industry. After he installed everything I went down to take a look and the quality of work was not what I expected. So I asked him to mitigate it. The reading on the meter was correct but it showed that the work he did wasn't helping. After that we had a weekly monitoring and then the readings weren't improving fast enough. So it went into February and then March and in April we've had continuous visits. Every time he came back he made some adjustments and we saw a little bit of improvement but it's still not quite where it should be. So it was not what I expected. I'm just about to call it quits."

"Jim did a great job. He quickly assessed the problem and then took our unit with him to work on it more. When he got back to us, the fix would have cost more than it was worth. He gave us options for a new or refurbished PC. We felt the refurbished was a good deal and chose that. He came back and set that up and we are very happy with it. He then took a look at my laptop and again took it along. He tuned it up and installed a speed upgrade we wanted. Of course, we paid extra for the new unit and upgrades, but we thought the price was very fair. Jim seemed very knowledgeable and responsive. We will definitely call him again if we need any computer services."

"One Call Roofing was great. On the initial estimate, they were a little higher than the other two estimates but the other two  estimates did not include installing the ridge vent. The other two companies were going to replace the turbines (both worked fine). There was no pressure to accept their estimate and no "fancy" talk. Phillip explained what would be done and how it would be done.
The crew was on time and completed the roofing in one day (it was almost dark when they finished). They worked solid all day except for a brief break for lunch and a brief rain shower for which they put tarps on the roof until the rain stopped. Very good crew!
They returned the next morning to clean up and run the magnet over the front/back yard to pick stray nails. They did a very good job of cleaning the area - I've found a few pieces of small pieces of shingles in the grass but I would expect that with any company.
One thing I really liked was the installation of a waterproof membrane under the roof valley and around the heat vents.
One more important fact:  I received a $500 discount for being a member of Angie's List. This was applied AFTER they gave me the estimate.

Install Boiler FAQs, answered by experts

Hydronic and standard electric baseboard heaters differ in how they operate, their cost, and their performance. Standard convection heaters use electric coils to heat the air directly, while hydronic heaters warm a contained liquid like water or oil, which then radiates heat into the room.

In terms of cost and efficiency, hydronic heaters usually have a higher upfront price but are more energy-efficient and cheaper to run over time. This is because the heated liquid retains warmth, allowing the heater to continue providing heat for a while after the thermostat turns it off. In contrast, electric heaters provide heat more quickly but are less efficient.

Ultimately, the better choice depends on your priorities. If you need a room to heat up fast and have a lower initial budget, an electric heater might be suitable. If long-term energy savings are more important and you don't mind a slower heat-up time, a hydronic heater is likely the better option.

A common HVAC rule is that for every 500 to 600 square feet of living space, you need 1 ton of heating or cooling capacity. Now that you know this common rule, you also need to know that it isn’t very accurate, and a dedicated pro wouldn’t use it for your home. If you talk to a pro who won’t or can’t perform a proper Manual J calculation, consider hiring someone more thorough.

The cost of heating oil fluctuates rapidly based on supply and demand, but the average price is between $4.00 and $4.50 per gallon, which means filling a standard 275-gallon tank would cost between $1,100 and $1,240. Much like automotive gasoline, the price of home heating oil changes constantly, so the only way to get an accurate and current price per gallon is to contact a heating oil delivery company. Some companies also offer contracts with a set price that should be an average cost over the contract term.

Steam boilers require flushing at least every six to 12 months to keep them operating effectively for as long as possible. Depending on your water quality and frequency of use, you might need to do this more frequently. The flushing process helps to remove problematic buildup of sediments. While a boiler contractor near you can perform a thorough annual flush, learning how to drain the system yourself means you can do this monthly if you experience speedy mineral accumulation because of hard water. 

You should get anywhere from three to five quotes for HVAC replacement to get an idea of the average cost of a new unit. Although this quote-collecting process can be time consuming, it allows you to compare what work is required, what type of unit you should install, and how much you should expect to pay for the service.
