A friend gave me the name of Dry Air Systems, and specifically recommended that I speak with Richard Wilson--one of the company's experts and chief estimators. I contacted Richard and over a period of about 6 months we noodled around with what would be the best, most cost effective solution for our situation. Richard could not have been more patient. No matter how many times we called him with a new idea, he was always willing to explore the option. Since cost was a consideration, and we wanted to save as much as we could using what we had, Richard evaluated our existing set-up first. Because the original ducting was so bad, we could not use it. It simply didn't make sense to add a new furnace with an air conditioning component to a convoluted patchwork of ducts. Plus, we didn't really want to stick with oil. It's an obsolete alternative with very low efficiency. Propane was a much more efficient option, but we would have had to replace the deducting and add a larger propane tank to make a gas system viable. UGH! Then Richard suggested a ductless system with a heat pump. He gave us two options--Lennox that offered 100% interest free financing or Mitsubishi which had no financing but a rebate and better motor and warranty. We went with the Mitsubishi and could not be happier. Everything was just as Richard had predicted. The crew of four from Dry Systems was one of the most professional I have ever had in my home. Led by Jamie Caldwell, they were careful, immaculate, knowledgeable, and extremely thoughtful about selecting locations and best options for wiring, ducting, vents and the compressor itself. Overall an outstanding experience. BTW, we had 2 other bids, and Dry Systems was about 20% less than their nearest competitor. A win win for us!

I took my car to Honda of Downtown LA for an oil change. Without looking at the car, the service manager said and quot;We have to talk about your car, have a seat. I know you only drive a few miles a week, but your car is five and a half years old. It's imperative you replace all the fluids immediately before you do further damage to your vehicle. You know how milk gets lumpy and sour when you keep it in the fridge too long? Well, that's happened to your fluids.and quot;
I asked, and quot;How much?and quot; His adding machine went clack, clack, clack. and quot;Four hundred and ninety-six dollarsand quot;.
I said and quot;I'll get a second opinionand quot;.
I took my car to Affordable Care of Hollywood. Stacey Stevens said he'd check the fluids and replace or replenish them as necessary. He checked and said my car is in good condition, all it needed was new oil and filter, plus topping off other fluids. The price was less than a tenth what Honda of Downtown asked for.

Our home was built in the 1930's and the heating system was original to the house. It was not only very inefficient and expensive to run, but the heat it provided was barely worth the effort. This year we made the conscious decision to insulate and upgrade to a split system that provided both...

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts
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.
For most systems, an annual HVAC system service is more than enough. Some homeowners prefer a twice-a-year visit to ensure the system is ready for the upcoming summer and winter seasons. If you need to call an HVAC pro more often than this, it may be time to check if your system is getting old enough for a replacement.
Yes, many providers offer organic or eco-friendly treatments. Confirm availability with your contractor.
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.
Service costs range from $200 to $1,500, depending on maintenance needs, system age, and labor.
