In some cases we can help you right now! If not, we will schedule an appointment that fits your schedule. If you receive our answering service, please leave us a message. We will call you back as soon as possible. Domestic Based Support. Our company is based right here in the United States and all of our technicians speak clear, fluent English. Safe Interaction. By using our online support center, no one has to come out to your home to fix your computer. That means no strangers in your home and you don’t even have to get dressed, if you don’t want to. Extremely Affordable & Convenient. Unhooking your computer, dragging it out to the car, then driving to the store and dragging in there and waiting for weeks to get it back and then pay hundreds of dollars for such fantastic service. That’s the typical experience for most users. Most Issues are software based. In our experience. 85% of user’s problems are either software or operating system problems due to bugs, worms, virus’, Trojans, malware, grayware or spyware related. As long as your computer turns on and has an internet connection, we can probably solve your issue.

Brian and Sons, Inc. is a family owned and operated full service Heating, Air Conditioning, Duct Cleaning and Aerosealing contractor. We are a Factory Authorized Bryant furnace & air conditioner dealer. Moreover, as a comfort 24/7 dealer, we can offer 10 year parts and labor warranty on your home equipment. At Brian and Sons, we are continuing to move forward and strive on the promise of always providing first-rate service and professionalism to our customers. Our devoted staff is continuously staying up to date on the new, and ever-changing, HVAC industry so that we will always provide the best service we can. Honesty and quality work by people who care. We care about you and the services we provide with no high pitched sales. We service our customers and stand behind the services we provide. Additionally, we can offer a 2 year warranty on the change out of OEM parts. Additional address - 2284 Cornell Ave Montgomery IL 60538. The cost is determined on a job by job basis. Lastly, we offer 0%, no credit check, financing, fixed and leasing programs, and funding for commercial sites!

"I would steer clear. 1. Pay with check discount is not guaranteed. We had a service done in mid-February, and were mistakenly charged the full amount, even though we were told we would receive a 3% discount. We were then told they would mail a check. No luck. Debbie has my Zelle QR code and info and still refuses to refund the overcharge. She would rather argue than honor her discount. 2. Does not stand behind their "100% Money-Back Satisfaction Guarantee on Service." We had an error code on our furnace. Tech came out and diagnosed as a bad inducer. We believed him and purchased a new one. They installed it right away and also did an inspection. Total was about $1100. Steep, but not bad since the tech said that should get us a few more years on an 18 y.o. furnace. The inspection went well and we were happy. Next day the error code was back. Different tech came out and diagnosed as a control board issues. $900 to fix. Ouch. He was at the house for a long time to do the diag. After asking for detailed information, Debbie refused to give any insights and lied to us about not being charged any mark up on the inducer. At this point I was definitely not satisfied! The more questions I asked to get to the truth, the more Debbie blamed us for the age of our furnace. I asked for a refund of the service and told her she could come get the part once we received the refund. This was because we STILL had not gotten the check discount she promised us! The part was charged at $600+ so the remaining amount for the service is $475 which includes the inspection that failed to find the control board issue. That and the check discount comes to $500. on a nearly $1100 bill. But Debbie would rather blame us for asking questions and not being grateful for the time they spent NOT FIXING THE ISSUE! Debbie lied to me when she said she would give the refund and come get the inducer. She has gone back on her word and refuses to make it right according to her own posted "promise." Debbie can send the refund amount through Zelle or bring a check when she picks up the inducer to resolve this issue. The BBB has now directed me to the IL Attorney General."

CAT Contracting, Inc. is a national restoration company which operates two divisions. The residential catastrophe division facilitates the sales and restoration processes for homeowners after catastrophic storm events. The Commercial Division services large low slope membrane systems including but not limited to TPO, EPDM, Spray Foam, PVC, Metal and Hydro-Stop

"The original project manager was good. He installed the roof, had a few hiccups, but I was satisfied until 1 1/2 years later when I got 4 leaks. Additionally, some aluminium was supposed to be installed and it still hasn't been installed. I have been calling since March 2019 and still no one has come out to fix the leaks. I only have a couple of months left until warranty expires which I'm figuring they are waiting for. I've called & asked the owner Matt to call me, b ut 5 days later and still no call. A roofer is only as good as his repairs. My advise is don't use Cat. They have no one within 50 miles to repair my roof. I'm very disappointed as I first thought they had done a good job. I had seen reviews where the owner was very responsive, but not to me."

Generator Install questions, answered by experts

Generators run on a variety of fuel types, ranging from natural gas to solar power. Keep in mind that fuel costs varying by type:

  • Natural gas: $2,000–$21,000 per year 

  • Liquid propane: $2,000–$21,000 per year

  • Diesel: $3,000–$20,000 per year

  • Gasoline: $500–$3,000 per year

  • Solar generator: $2,000–$25,000 per unit

  • Battery backup: $10,000–$25,000 per unit

Many services include assembling the unit and securing it in the window. Confirm with your provider.

Setting up utilities on a vacant property usually takes at least a few months, or between 6 weeks to 16 weeks. This process requires working with the local planning and zoning department, hiring a building contractor or engineer to design the utility layout, securing permits, laying the lines, and connecting the utilities.

If you’re wondering whether gas generators produce carbon monoxide, know that natural gas generators do not produce carbon monoxide if they are functioning properly, as natural gas burns cleanly. However, if the generator malfunctions and the gas does not burn completely, there is potential for carbon dioxide to be produced. To prevent malfunctions, it's crucial to perform regular maintenance, including running the generator weekly and scheduling professional inspections every 6 to 12 months. Also, be sure to test your carbon monoxide detectors regularly to ensure they function in the rare case of the generator producing carbon monoxide.

Homeowners can often access federal tax credits, such as the Investment Tax Credit (ITC), which covers a percentage of installation costs. Many states and utilities offer additional rebates, grants, or performance-based incentives. These programs can significantly lower your upfront investment. Check the Database of State Incentives for Renewables and Efficiency (DSIRE) or contact your local energy office for current offers.
