We have several rentals and when our renters call with no heat it doesn't matter if we are on vacation. Nazario is prompt, friendly, and takes the worry out of things. I've recommended him several times and always get a good response. I highly, highly recommend.

They vacuumed out the heater and replaced the coupler. He did look over the heating system and made some recommendations. He will have someone follow up with me in a week to discuss them. I appreciate good service and that's exactly what I got. Right now I have heat, and that's a good sign.

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

Leaks, poor airflow, reduced efficiency, and loop blockages are common problems requiring service.

Your HVAC manufacturer will give you instructions on how often you should service your system. Have your unit professionally serviced at least once a year when in doubt.

Heat pump systems are different because they provide heating and cooling solutions for your home. In this case, you should have it serviced at least twice a year.

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.

HVAC systems usually last between 10 and 30 years, with most having a lifespan of around 20 years. Factors that impact a unit’s life expectancy include which brand you choose, how often you use it, and how well you maintain it. To make sure yours lasts as long as possible, make sure to keep it clean and schedule an annual service with an HVAC technician.

The most obvious downside is the high upfront cost of buying and installing one of these systems. Additionally, sometimes the system can take a longer time to heat than alternatives like a boiler. Also, if something goes wrong with the geothermal pump, repairs are often significantly more expensive than repairing traditional, above-ground heat pumps.
