"Just had the initial diagnostic visit. I was given terrible news (I'll probably end up getting a new furnace $$$), but the technician Ricky was wonderful. He was extremely polite, professional, and friendly. He did a very thorough inspection and then gave me a very thorough explanation of the problems. This included photos he took on the spot of some internal parts (oil leakage, heavy dust & dirt, stress markings).... at no point did I feel like I couldn't trust what he was telling or showing me. He answered every question I had. He went into the "attic" of my Eichler to check the ductwork (via a 14" hole in the closet ceiling, into space so shallow and tight I have no idea how the ductwork was ever even installed), and came out with photos to show me. The company was easy to work with when I had to change appointments, sent me email and text confirmations of everything, and gave me a day-before reminder of the appointment. I had an 8a- 11a window and received a text at 7:50a letting me know the technician was on his way, with a photo of him included. Perfect, perfect, perfect. The visit was $89 but reduced to $39 because I signed up for the MVP membership: $107 for a year which gets me all kinds of free services plus discounts on everything else. It even includes services on my water heater which they did not install! Additionally, they have some really good guarantees, MVP or not. Before leaving he called the office, explained all he'd found, and handed me the phone to set up an appointment with a "comfort specialist". Ariel (on the phone) was also extremely polite, professional, and friendly. These people are trained right! Or they're hiring very well. So, I will be meeting with someone to discuss repairs vs. replacement options. No repair work has been done yet (although Ricky did do a temporary fix that is allowing me to get some heat), so I can't fully review the company. But thus far I'm 100% pleased. This is probably the best experience I've ever had with any kind of repair technician. I've never used them before and have also never written a review before. The experience was just that good. I'll write another when I've finished with them just to give a full review, but so far perfect!"

"When it became clear that my existing HVAC system needed to be replaced, I initallycontacted thecompany that was the original maintenance contractor.  They made a proposal for system replacement, but, would not give me a paper contract explaining the complete work to be provided.  Indeed, said contractor proceeded to try to sell me additional items I did not want or need.
I subsequently called Diamond for an estimate.  Bob came to the house and thoroughly explained various options and provided
written contracts for the alternate proposals.  The straight talk approach was really appreciated (especially after the snake oil salesman from the prior vendor).  After a day's review, I authorized Diamond to proceed with the installation.
The Diamond staff showed up on time and finished the installation by the end of the second day.  They were extremely professional and patiently explained what was happening at each stage of the project.  Behing the professional staff, Bob an Elaine Weatherford remained in contact to make sure that I was happy with the work.
My only concern after the project was completed was the interaction between the new system and the smart vent system.  Bob and his staff made sure the my concerns were resolved.
I unconditionally recommend Diamond HVAC sysems to anyone who wants to depend on dealing with honest, no nonsense, business professionals.

"These guys are awesome. I called to have a reception area toilet repaired in our medical clinic and Ken was there in no time. He not only got the issue sorted out (clogged toilet that couldn't be fixed with plunger) but he also replaced a valve so that it will not keep happening! This has happened multiple times with this toilet and our previous plumber never mentioned a possible valve issue. We will be using them for all of our future plumbing needs. Thank you Ken!"

Boiler Repair questions, answered by experts

There are many signs and symptoms to look out for that can indicate that your HVAC system needs repair, including the following:

  • Your indoor air is uncomfortably hot or cold.

  • Your energy bills suddenly increase without explanation.

  • Your AC is blowing warm air or not blowing air at all.

  • You notice leaks around your HVAC equipment.

  • Your equipment makes unusual noises during operation.

  • You notice strange odors coming from your equipment.

  • You notice that the humidity in your home is higher than normal.

  • The thermostat no longer seems to match the actual temperature.

The average lifespan of a boiler is typically between 15 and 20 years, though some may last for as little as 10 years while others can reach 30. A boiler's longevity is influenced by several factors, including the quality of the unit, proper installation, and consistent professional maintenance.

The material also plays a significant role. Older boilers made from durable cast iron can last for over 20 years, with some functioning for up to 50 years. However, it's important to consider their lower efficiency, which can lead to higher utility bills. Modern boilers, often made from steel alloys, are designed to withstand high pressure and temperatures and have an average lifespan of about 20 years.

To maximize your boiler's lifespan, ensure it is installed correctly, have it professionally maintained each year, and address any necessary repairs immediately.

Once you know where your bleed valves are and how to use them, bleeding out heaters is a quick process. Expect it to take around 10 to 20 minutes, possibly longer if you have a lot of heaters or are still learning how they work. If you have a central bleed valve on your boiler, the process still takes the same amount of time. Make sure you have any keys necessary to turn the bleed valves on. Without bleed valves, the process should take around three hours.

If you hear your radiator clanking even when it’s turned off, it’s typically because there’s trapped water or air in the system, causing a pressure buildup. When you hear significant clanking, popping, crackling, or banging in a radiator that’s turned off, you’ll want to bleed the pipes or call in an HVAC specialist to deal with the problem (and prevent it from happening in the future).

Unless they are connected to the same system, boilers and water heaters will both need their own expansion tanks. The only case they wouldn’t have separate expansion tanks is if the boiler is pulling double duty and managing a heating system while also supplying hot water for a home. In which case, you may not need a hot water heater.
