"Our brand new system was not heating properly. Gary (FIVE STAR EMPLOYEE) came and fixed a problem. It was not straight forward and he had to do a bit of research, but he made it work better than it ever had!. He came back the next day and changed the filter and rec-hecked the system. We were warm and snug after his dedicated service! Thanks for the GREAT experience."

"On estimate
Rich was prompt, friendly and professional. He was straight with me and honest. 

Another HVAC company told me I had to install pumps to each unit (I have 3) to help the flow of water (a total of $600). Rich explained to me that all that was needed were some "T" pvc for venting ($0.39 each) that he had on hand. Since it was a quick task, he put them in for free.

He gave me a price that was $1,200 LESS than another estimate.

On the work
He called the day before letting me know the weather looked bad on the day of the install - depending on the weather, he might have to do it the following day. I really appreciated that notice given I have tenants. It was very professional.

When the weather was better, he showed up- as promised - and he kept in communication with me.

A few hours after he left it wasn't cooling the apt. We chatted by text even though it was late. He came out the next day without complaint and fixed the problem. All the while keeping me informed.

Overall
Although the install was a bit bumpy, he never complained, was considerate, easy to work with and treated me very well.

He has earned a customer for life.

Boiler Repair questions, answered by experts

Most propane boilers last 15 to 20 years with regular maintenance and proper care. The lifespan depends on the quality of the unit, proper installation, and the level of maintenance. Investing in annual service can maximize longevity and efficiency. Routine inspections and timely repairs prevent early breakdown, ensuring your boiler heats your home for years to come.

Over time, a radiator can leak if turned off due to the built-up air pressure, which can cause water or coolant to leak. If your radiator leaks when it’s off, turn your whole system off and bleed the radiator, then turn it back on. If it’s still leaking, you might want to have an HVAC professional look at the issue.

Safety concerns with propane boilers include proper venting to prevent carbon monoxide buildup, secure gas line connections, and regular inspection of safety controls. Professional boiler installation and annual maintenance are essential to minimize risks. Having a carbon monoxide detector installed in your home is essential for early detection of any leaks or ventilation issues.

The average cost for HVAC repairs is approximately $350. However, prices can range from as low as $100 to as high as $3,000 or more, depending on the type of repair and the extent of the damage. For example, a relatively inexpensive capacitor replacement may cost $100 to $500, while a major compressor repair can range from $750 to $2,000. Other common repairs and their typical costs include:

  • Blower motor repair: $200–$500

  • Circuit board repairs: $100–$600

  • Evaporator or condenser coil repair: $400–$1,500

  • Heat exchanger repair: $100–$200

  • Thermostat repair: $175

Yes, it is generally safe and effective to turn off radiators in unused rooms to save money on heating costs. This practice is especially beneficial with older heating systems. However, you should avoid cranking up the thermostats on the remaining radiators to compensate, as this can lead to higher heating bills and increased wear and tear on your system. While some HVAC specialists argue that modern, efficient boilers are designed to heat the entire home and work best when all radiators are on, turning off radiators in unused spaces still reduces the total amount of hot water your system needs to produce.
