"I am writing this review as they are installing a new HVAC system in our home.  Our home burned down and the air handler needed to be replaced.  Galbreath is my contractor's preferred HVAC system subcontractor.
We had a new HVAC system installed by a different provider 6 months before the fire.  We received Galbreath's estimate, and they recommended that we resize the system because we are upgrading the house insulation to spray foam and the house needed less capacity.  Since I was surprised that I was going to have to come out of pocket for HVAC, I asked the company that previously installed a new HVAC system.  To make a long story short, the previous company behaved badly.  In contrast, Galbreath worked with us very patiently to get Georgia Power rebates and other benefits to reduce the cost.  
We've run into some minor problems during the installation which were not Galbreath's fault.  First, I misunderstood the kind of ducting they were using.  I learned after doing my homework that their choice of ducting was absolutely right and I was wrong.  Second, due to the new configuration of our home (we took the ceilings up to the roofline which drastically reduced the space for the HVAC air handler and blocked most of the wall to the great room of the house with an alcove to display art work on one side of the wall and a loft in a bedroom on the other side), it has been very difficult to install ducts into the great room. Galbreath has been very patient in working through the issue and my contractor has determined an perfect way to get the job done.
I'm extremely impressed with the owner of this company.  He has been responsive, flexible, and really worked with us.  If that is any indication of the quality of their work, we are going to have a great system.  I greatly appreciate the fact that he did not bad mouth anyone, which seems rather common in this industry and in this market, and  instead sold us on his expertise, responsiveness, pricing, and expertise.  
I will update if the system performs poorly, but I highly doubt that will the case.  Mr. Galbreath, thank you.

"After a year's maintenance agreement with a very poorly performing company, I was focused on hiring the most professional company to replace our heat pump. I interviewed four firms and Comfort Air was the most professional during the proposal process. After we signed a contract, they were superb in communication, installation and follow-up. I feel that I got an excellent heat pump unit (Lennox, 15 SEER, qualifies for tax credit) and have started a relationship with a superb company."

"Jim is local.  It went great. Jim Ferrell is a professional of the highest caliber. Responded quickly, took care of my problems, and advised me as to better means of protection than I had. He came back a second time to uninstall software that I purchased that did not provide adequate protections and installed free software that would do the job.  He did the work through remote connection, but is available on site if necessary.
For those people needing help on getting red of malware, viruses , etc. on your computer,  Jim is local, better than all thse remote out of state location providers, is a mature, highly trained professional in this area.
If you go to local computer stores you get very young people that can do a basic job, but are no where near the professional level of Jim.
I highly recommend Jim to anyone that needs these type services.

"After giving us an estimate in Dec 2014 and constantly following up with us they earned our business. They installed 8 piers and 3 beams under our home and what a difference! Just walking across the floors feels so sturdy. Now that this has been completed we can begin working on our kitchen remodel. Thanks Again!

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

Costs range from $3,000 to $7,500, depending on system size and efficiency.

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.

While you’ll pay more upfront for a brand-new HVAC unit, you can save money in the long run. Here’s how to save on your new HVAC system:

  • When purchasing a high-efficiency system, your energy bills will be lower in the future.

  • You may be eligible for special offers from your local energy company.

  • Depending on the system, you may be eligible for HVAC rebates and tax credits.

  • Choose to replace your air conditioning unit and furnace simultaneously to save on labor and installation costs. 

Some high-quality steam boilers come with 10-year warranties, but a well-installed, properly maintained model can last at least 20 to 25 years. Learning how to clean a boiler, getting an annual professional service, and keeping up with maintenance and repairs on your heating system are all important for getting the most out of your model. 

No, boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different primary functions. Boilers are used for central heating systems, providing hot water or steam to heat your home. In contrast, a water heater's purpose is to supply hot water for daily household use, such as for faucets and showers. A water heater alone cannot supply the warm water or steam needed for a central heating system.

While they are not interchangeable, it is common to have both a boiler and a water heater. In fact, a conventional boiler often works best when a water heater system is already in place. The two systems can be combined to provide both heating and hot water, either by pairing a boiler with an indirect water heater or by installing a premade combination boiler-water heater unit. For home heating, some homeowners may also opt for a furnace instead of a boiler.
