They Toyota takes synthetic oil so it's more expensive. At first I thought they were ripping me off, but I called around and oil changes with synthetic oil are more expensive. They were right in the middle of the mark on price. I was in and out in about forty minutes. The waiting area is...

The man was on time for the appointment. He wanted to rebuild my garage door and gave me an estimate for $800. I asked if he would just oil everything and he did. He knew what he was doing and did a good job with the work I paid him for.

They are the only Ford dealer here in town, so that is where I go. When I go in for an oil change, they might say if there is something that has to be done and they do it. I would rate them highly.

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

Yes, geothermal heat pumps are worth the money. You can save about 70% on heating costs in the winter and around 50% on cooling costs in the summer with a geothermal heat pump compared to a traditional HVAC system. Over time, your savings on monthly utilities will pay for the cost of the geothermal heat pump installation. If you have an incredibly small yard, however, you may not have enough space for this type of system.

You need to service an HVAC system about twice per year, with a service including an inspection and basic maintenance. It’s best to schedule maintenance in the spring (after the furnace has been running and before the AC kicks on) and in the fall (after the AC worked hard all summer and before winter’s first chill arrives).

Regular HVAC services will keep the system working as efficiently as possible, saving you money on utilities and larger repairs. HVAC maintenance costs around $250 per visit, while bigger repairs from forgotten upkeep could cost thousands.

Yes, many providers offer organic or eco-friendly treatments. Confirm availability with your contractor.

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.

An evaporator or swamp cooler is a common alternative for small spaces. These coolers blow moist air into a space to help cool it down. They are more affordable than misters and use much less water. However, coolers will not have the same cooling effect as misters, cannot help plants survive the heat, and only reach a small area.
