"The first guy came, but did not have the parts he needed, even though I specified in my email what types of plumbing I had. We had to reschedule for another day. The second guy came and was very professional and knowledgeable. He installed the system fairly quickly and explained how to operate the system. He also showed me where my furnace was installed incorrectly. I had the original furnace installer come out and fix the problem, that was pointed out to me by this company. Very good customer service. I have not used the humidifier yet, but I am happy so far. "
"They got the old sump pump removed and installed the new one. They even disposed of the old stuff which I greatly appreciated. They were wonderful and would call on Greenwell Plumbing again."
"This is a great company and I am glad they are around. Extremely professional, detail oriented, hard working and honest. I needed to replace my ancient HVAC system and I was fortunate to have had this company help me with that. I ended up with a couple of bids for the same brand and model and Comfort Zone gave me an honest price which was thousands less than a competitor (Again, same brand and model number). Equally important is that they know what they are doing and they do the job right unlike many of the less knowledgeable competitors. Honest, knowledgable, hard working, great to deal with! They have earned my business for sure."
"The changing of the compressor went well. However, had a leak in the furnace in the house. That was an additional leak which was $817! I also had a new thermostat installed to cut energy costs. The only problem was when prices quoted it would change with the person you talked to. When I paid my bill the company attempted to pad the bill by an additional $250 dollars. I told them it was either 817 or 876 dollars. I pad the additional cost. I will use them but only under my supervision and make sure they do the work requested. Caveat Emptor!"
"Zach, Josh, and Cole came out and installed new heat pump for me in the middle of this snow storm. Very clean, informative and punctual. Will recommend to everyone. Thanks from veteran."
"I would recommend this company to anyone who wants a reliable, hardworking, precise young man to do your work. He called and showed up when he said he would. He got the job done efficiently and in a timely manner. He made sure my system was up and running correctly after reconnecting the unit. I am superbly happy with his workmanship. Highly recommend. Thank you Curtis."
"It was reported that my fireplace had a build up that needed to be cleaned. I was given two different prices for two different procedures; both were very pricey. I called a second professional and was told that there was no build-up at all and the fireplace was in great shape."
The best way to compare HVAC quotes is getting a few detailed quotes from local companies with good reputations. Then, go over the quotes line by line. Protect yourself by insisting on in-person estimates that include equipment manufacturer names, model numbers, SEER ratings, amounts and numbers of materials, details of warranties on equipment and labor, and other specifics.
Knowing the exact equipment and materials is the only way that you can fairly compare quotes. Quotes that are much lower than others can be a sign that the company isn’t providing the best quality service or materials.
Generally, an oil furnace is considered safer than a gas furnace for several reasons. While both types of furnaces can produce carbon monoxide, a leak in an oil furnace is easier to detect due to the smell. Oil furnaces also don't connect to a gas pipeline, which reduces the chance of a fuel leak. Most importantly, heating oil is not combustible, whereas natural gas is highly flammable. This means there is a much lower risk of combustion or explosion with an oil furnace. However, an oil furnace can still pose a fire hazard if it tips over.
Yes. In many cases, switching from an old furnace to a high-efficiency boiler can help you save money over time. You can also save money by switching from an electric boiler to a gas boiler, which costs much less compared to the energy bills an electric boil can create. Boilers are often (but not always) more efficient than furnaces, too. Then there are discounts, rebates, and incentives that can help you save on the initial costs.
If your boiler is 20 years old, it’s time to get a new one. Although it may seem to be working fine, it’s likely eating up more fuel than it should. Also, compared to a brand-new boiler, one that’s 20 years old is probably not working as well. When you get your new unit, you’ll notice that your home is heating more quickly, and the heat is consistent throughout all the rooms.
Always consult your manual for specific pressure numbers. Many expansion tanks come pre-pressurized at a specific PSI range, anywhere from 12 to 40 PSI, designed for a range of home boilers. You should not have to pressurize an expansion tank yourself, only the boiler system. If your system has a tank that needs to be manually pressurized, this is generally a job for professionals and their tools.
