He did a great job. As he was looking at the heat pump, I asked him if he thought I should purchase a new heat pump. He told me if my wife and I were his mom and dad, he said he would not recommend it until the unit had to be replaced. That was very helpful because our budget is not very good...

I called Ron to help me with a leaking water heater. Unfortunately he is not licensed to practice in Shelby County and that is where I live. However..he told me how much a new water heater should cost, labor and all and what kind to ask for. I sure wish he could have come here.

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

Geothermal systems provide energy efficiency, lower utility bills, and long-term sustainability with minimal environmental impact.

Regular inspections, loop flushing, and checking heat exchangers help extend system lifespan.

There are three main types of heat pumps. An air-source heat pump system is the most common and has two parts—an indoor air handler unit and an outdoor heat pump unit. A ductless heat pump system functions similarly to an air-source heat pump system but doesn’t need ductwork to distribute the air. A geothermal heat pump system pulls heat from the ground to help heat your home.

DIY maintenance like filter cleaning is possible, but professional servicing ensures proper pressure, refrigerant levels, and loop performance.

You can expect a geothermal system to last for years. According to the Department of Energy, the underground infrastructure for the heat pumps lasts about 25 to 50 years, which includes the pipes buried in the soil. The actual heat pump itself has a life span of around 25 years.
