"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."
"The service was completed and I am completely satisfied.
Things they did: The dryer vent hose was not secure as the dryer vent tape had dried out. so they picked up a replacement dryer vent hose and clamps, Vacuum cleaned out the dryer vent pipe. Vacuum cleaned out the dryer filter
Things I did: Put the washer and dryer on felt sliders to make it easier to move the water and dryer on the tile floor. Replaced the dryer vent louvers with new ones. The old ones get brittle after 5 or 10 years in the weather.
Things I still need to do: put on a new set of Washer hoses."
A common HVAC rule is that for every 500 to 600 square feet of living space, you need 1 ton of heating or cooling capacity. Now that you know this common rule, you also need to know that it isn’t very accurate, and a dedicated pro wouldn’t use it for your home. If you talk to a pro who won’t or can’t perform a proper Manual J calculation, consider hiring someone more thorough.
The average cost to replace or install a new HVAC system is around $7,500. However, the price can range from $5,000 to $12,500, depending on factors like the size of your home, the type and brand of the unit, and your specific heating and cooling needs. If you only need to replace certain components, the cost will be lower; for example, a new AC unit can cost between $2,200 and $5,500, while a new furnace costs $3,200 to $6,000. If additional work like new ductwork is required, the total cost could be as high as $22,000. It's best to contact a local HVAC company for an accurate quote.
Boiler installations and replacements costbetween $3,600 to $8,400. Expect to pay around $5,900 on average for a new boiler, including installation. Adding new radiators or heaters to the boiler may include separate costs if you are also upgrading those components, so the final price may be higher. To decrease costs, you can look for local energy rebates for using a boiler and wait until installers are offering discounts for a first-time installation.
The radiators closest in proximity to the boiler heating system will heat up first. Radiators in rooms farther away from the boiler will take longer to heat up and may be the coolest rooms in the house. The radiator unit itself should heat up evenly; otherwise, there may be trapped air inside it.
Yes, most municipalities require a permit for propane boiler installation to ensure safety and code compliance. Permit fees vary by location and are often included in your installer’s quote, as they’ll handle the permitting process. Ensure that you always check local regulations before starting your project to avoid fines or delays.
