"Ken came out originally to do some duct cleaning but noticed that a lot of our supply and returns weren’t sealed properly with mastic (he showed us the areas that needed work). He came back out and sealed all the ducts, installed an air purifier and cleaned and sanitized all the ductwork. He was polite, knowledgeable, professional and hard working. Definitely recommend his services."

"5+ STAR SERVICE!!! Our A/C went out at 10pm and I made one phone call to Service Star they diagnosed the issue over the phone and told me what I needed to do in order to have our unit run efficiently overnight. Our coil was leaking and unit was frozen. Since our unit was 10 years old we opted to replace the entire unit including exterior and interior with new WiFi digital thermostat. They walked us through the most energy efficient option for our home. They came out early today and installed the new unit! Talk about SERVICE! WOW! The unit was installed in under 4 hours and my house began cooling instantly. WHAT a difference this unit makes and we are super impressed with how quite it is. We are THRILLED! THANK YOU SERVICE STAR!"
"My initial contact with Jon and Chris on May 26th was to see if my existing unit 16 year old A/C could be repaired. Jon and Chris were knowledgeable and pleasant as well as professional. They were able to share with me the many issues I already knew were occurring with my current unit. We discussed cost and options to pay and sealed the deal. I am pleased that a 5 year maintenance plan for checkup's twice a year is included. The next week Cesar and Gerardo arrived with the new unit. It took at least 8 hours to install so it was an all day event. Cesar was very personable and worked hard at installing the handler in my very small space. Gerardo installed the outside unit and the new thermostat. The unit works very well so far, cools very well and is amazingly quiet. I was impressed with all four of the men who represented Amtek. I would also like to mention that about a week after the unit was installed I was solicited by the same company to purchase a new unit. Perhaps leads could be better scrubbed. "
"We particularly appreciated the team’s reliability, craftsmanship, and ability to address questions or adjustments promptly throughout the process, the finished result exceeded our expectations and has significantly improved both the appearance and functionality of our space; I would confidently recommend them to anyone seeking a dependable, skilled, and professional construction and remodeling company."
"Tech came and said that I did not need a complete air duct service. Angie's List refunded my cost with no questions asked. The tech did a great job cleaning out my dryer vent. Nice job Angie's and Accurate Care Services!!"
You can replace baseboard heaters with many other types of HVAC systems, including forced-air furnaces, hydronic heating, and heat pumps. Each one has its advantages and disadvantages, so the best choice for you will depend on your budget, preferences, and the design of your house. If you aren’t sure which option is right for you, ask an HVAC pro for guidance.
If you have a closed-system boiler that requires an expansion tank, you cannot safely operate it without one, as this risks extensive damage or even explosions. You must find a way to make room for the installation. Options include repositioning the boiler, rerouting the boiler piping to a more open area, or performing minor remodeling to create the necessary space. If you are unsure whether your boiler needs an expansion tank or how to best accommodate one, it's recommended to have a local heating service professional assess the situation. They can confirm the requirement and suggest the most practical solution.
Hydronic and standard electric baseboard heaters differ in how they operate, their cost, and their performance. Standard convection heaters use electric coils to heat the air directly, while hydronic heaters warm a contained liquid like water or oil, which then radiates heat into the room.
In terms of cost and efficiency, hydronic heaters usually have a higher upfront price but are more energy-efficient and cheaper to run over time. This is because the heated liquid retains warmth, allowing the heater to continue providing heat for a while after the thermostat turns it off. In contrast, electric heaters provide heat more quickly but are less efficient.
Ultimately, the better choice depends on your priorities. If you need a room to heat up fast and have a lower initial budget, an electric heater might be suitable. If long-term energy savings are more important and you don't mind a slower heat-up time, a hydronic heater is likely the better option.
No, there isn’t always water in radiators. In a one-pipe system, water is constantly circulating from the boiler to the radiators and back. In a two-pipe system, water travels through two separate channels: one that goes to your radiators and one that returns back to the boiler so it can heat up again.
Oil boilers provide reliable heating, efficiency, and long-term cost savings compared to electric options.
