"I've used Wesson Energy for a few years now as a member of the Connecticut Energy Cooperative. The prices are great and the service is responsive and professional.
In September, I noticed that the gauge on my heating oil tank showed that I was a quarter of a tank low. A few days later I received a notice of delivery from Wesson billing me for approximately 175 gallons of oil (about half a tank). I called to ask why, if I was only a quarter of a tank down, I would have needed so much oil.
Wesson sent out a technician to look at the problem. As it turned out, the gauge was wrong (they acquire a later of silt over time that weighs down the floater). Apparently l had looked at the gauge just after the delivery and the tank wasn't registering as full. 
Throughout the course of several phone calls to resolve this problem, representatives for Wesson were courteous and professional. 
P.S. Wesson definitely fixed the problem; the old gauge remained on the tank so I was able to compare the readings on the new and old gauges. The old gauge consistently registers a quarter-tank lower.

"Computer did the "gotta send info to Microsoft" but when tried to reboot it ran through automatic repair without success. I did all the alternative without any success. He came and picked up the hard drive on Tuesday and returned it on Saturday. Fortunately he was able to "restore" without any data loss. Very happy with outcome."

"We had a Burnham boiler that developed a crack (apparently they are notorious for doing so). It was spewing water all over our basement every time it turned on. Mike came over promptly and assessed the situation, giving us several options. We could have gone with a less expensive boiler, but chose a higher efficiency one as well as a new hot water tank (since ours was about 14 years old) and new connections. The installation took all day and into the evening with Mike and his partner working virtually non-stop. He also vacuumed up five gallons of water from our basement. We felt Mike was very professional as well as pleasant and honest to deal with. The new furnace has been in for a few days and is very quiet. He has estimated a savings of about $900 a year in oil costs with the new system.

"Overall, I wasn't happy with the entire experience. It said, in small print, up to X number of square feet or cubic feet or however they do it and then, there might be extra service charge for this and this and this. My big problem was that it ended up costing me pretty much double what the original coupon had cost. I wasn't happy because I checked around with some of my local providers. This guy was out of Springfield, Massachusetts. I got a couple of quotes from local providers. Of course, it was too late by then. I had already put up the initial $5000 to Angie's List. His price ended up being close to $2000 more. I could have just had a local guy come in and do the job. So, I wasn't happy about that. It took a long time for both myself and him to connect. Some of it was my fault and some of it was his fault. He was hard to get hold of and often, very hard to get him to respond to me. He was going through some personal issues with his family, which I understood and I was fine with. So he ended up doing the job probably far after the coupon even expired. So he was accommodating about that and I appreciated that about him. He actually is a nice guy to talk to. But he ended up putting the wrong color roof on and I wasn't happy. I had gone away for the few days that he was doing the roof, which I realize now wasn't very smart. But because I work out of my home, I couldn't work and have somebody banging on my roof. So I ended up leaving to go somewhere else to be able to do my work during the period of time he wandered on my roof. So it wasn't until I got back home and discovered the color of the roof, which I wasn't happy about. I didn't end up calling and complaining to him about it because it didn't seem reasonable to me to make him comeback and change the roof. So I was just not happy. It ended up costing far far more and when I talked to him about that, he told me that Angie's List sets the price and not him and so I should complain to Angie's List. I don't know the truth of it. I really don't understand how the whole process works. They did one other thing I wasn't happy with. I have a back attic storage area. It was part of the roof that was done. This had not been an issue before they did my roof. The nails that they used were much longer and more pointed than whoever had put up my initial roof. So I came into my storage area about a month after they did this roof and found that there were wood chips all over my possessions back there. With these pointing nails there, I had to be really careful because I couldn't poke myself in the head, trying to get to my things. They hadn't told me about it and they hadn't warned me about it. I would have appreciated if he had said, "If you have anything, cover them up because there will be wood chips from us banging nails into your roof. So there was just a bunch of stuff like that. The workmen were professional enough. They were polite enough. They didn't leave a huge mess around my house. It looked like they had tried pretty hard to clean it up pretty well. Angie's List offers what they say is a great deal and then, it doesn't turn out to be a deal at all. By the time, you're in the middle of this deal and you've already put up so much money, you can't walk away from the deal. So, it was not a happy experience for me. I've been really questioning whether I want to continue to be an Angie's List member because I haven't felt good about a lot of things that I've done."

Boiler Repair questions, answered by experts

DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and technical expertise required. Hire licensed professionals.

The best time to buy home heating oil is in the summer when the demand is lowest, as the prices are usually lower. However, waiting until the summer to buy is often unavoidable unless you install a separate storage tank. If you have the space for a second tank, you can expect to pay between $1,000 and $4,000 for the oil tank replacement or installation, depending on the capacity and location. You could quickly recuperate these costs, though, by stocking up on heating oil in the summer and avoiding deliveries in the winter when prices are highest.

Attempting DIY fixes can be dangerous. Regular boiler maintenance can help prevent overheating, so schedule professional servicing as a preventive measure. In an emergency, telling occupants to leave the house is a good idea. Then, you can turn off the boiler and the gas or fuel supply. Let it cool naturally, and check the thermostat's settings. Ensure there are no obstructions around the boiler for proper ventilation. Monitor the pressure gauge; if it's too high, bleed the radiators if necessary. During this time, bringing in professionals for troubleshooting is also smart.

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.

An expansion tank must always be installed on the supply side, which is the side where the boiler sends water out to heat the systems. That placement allows the water to push against the air and condense properly as it is heated, then circulated through the system. Professional installers can recommend the best place on the supply side for an expansion tank.
