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...

They were able to get to my job quickly and performed the replacement quickly. My only complaints are lack of cleanup and I would've liked an overview of the new heater. Items that were moved to provide access to the heater were not put back, which wouldn't be a big deal except I've had back...

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

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

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

It’s a better use of energy (and your money) NOT to run an ERV system all the time. Most experts recommend that you cycle your ERV system on and off throughout the year. However, the recommended advice could change based on your climate, the number of people in your home, the size and style of your home, and your heating and cooling system. Contact a local pro for more specific advice.

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, 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.
