ce. I have a week to think about it. I was very satisfied
Description of Work: Service person cleaned my furnace and explained problems that may come up in the not to distant future as furnace is 29 years old approx. and has not been maintained. He said that although it may still continue to run fine for many years it did have an issue that I should address sooner rather than later. I had him take care of the problem for $125.00 and was given an offer for yearly maintenance and 24 hours service for a very reasonable price. Living in New England why would you not buy a very reasonable service contract. No pressure by the way. I will definitely use this service.

I called last week before I purchased the deal to find if they serviced my area. The girl who answered didn't seem very well informed. She had to ask around before telling me they did service my area. I purchased the deal and set up my appointment for Thursday. They called me on Monday to let me know that they did not service my area and so could not complete the deal. They had left me a voicemail on Monday so they called me back again the next day to let me know they would not be coming out. They were apologetic about it. They had good reviews on Angie's List so I would use them if they were to service my area. I called Angie's List to get a refund on the deal.
Description of Work: I bought a Big Deal from them for $89 for Furnace, Boiler or Heat Pump Tune-Up!

Very satisfied with the entire experience. Got me moneys worth. Wouldn't hesitate to have them come in again.
Description of Work: Technician came and replaced the thermo coupling that was causing my pilot light to turn off. I did some research before hand and knew that this was probably the problem. I asked about all the different switches and gauges on the boiler and the technician gave me lots of pointers about how to run the furnace. I feel like i got enough information to save my self a service call or 2 if some of the more obvious things go wrong.

Initially I was just having a tune up done on my heat pump as Sila was advertising on Angie's list. I had noticed my HVAC was making a rattling noise that seemed to be getting worse. During the inspection it turned out the shaft and the fan blade were warped which was causing the noise. The tech explained this and took a video with his phone to show me exactly what the problem was since it was hard to see any other way. I have a non standard heat pump, and it took a week to order the replacement parts due to the suppliers being closed for New Years, but everything is working great now and their were no unexpected expenses from the original quote given after the heat pump inspection. The price seemed a bit high, but I have no idea how much the replacement parts cost, and to have the problem taken care of quickly and professionally seemed worth it. They were always on time - and worked with me to get my appliance insurance company's outside authorization taken care of. I am happy with the work done, and how professional they were in resolving my HVAC issue. I will definitely use this vendor again!
Description of Work: An initial inspection followed up by a complete removal of the heat pump to replace the Fan & motor that had gone bad.

Highly recommend this vendor. The did the original server back in Mar 12. And I also purchased the same service, to be performed next week. Back in March, they came in on time and did the work and checkup quick and provide detail report. And event we didn't have a service contract with them, on a recent incident, where the furnance becoming so lond and shutdown itself, we call they emergency number and they are kind enough to answer my wife's call and patiently provide instruction how to reset the system. I am not considering just sign up a service contract with them to maintain our HVAC. Highly recommended! jeremy

.They are really good. I would definately recommend them.
Description of Work: Purchased a three year service plan for my furnace. I previously hired Sila to install a new water heater and was impressed by their professionalism. I had them come to service my furnace and ended up deciding to go for a three year service plan so I have no worries.

Description of Work: I purchased a maintenance plan with them and they came and got my furnace ready for the winter. It is an annual plan and they come twice a year to check heating and AC and anytime there are any problems. I also purchased a cover from my AC unit.

They came in and were very thorough and explained what they were doing and answered a lot of questions we had. They also ended up giving us a very fair estimate on three or four other jobs. We haven't hired them for those other jobs, but we would consider having them do it. I thought they were very professional.

Pretty much explained in the last paragraph.
Description of Work: I had three heating units to be cleaned and serviced. Bobby came out, on time, was very informative and pleasant. He cleaned all three and gave me advice about what was needed to maintain the units. One is very old and will need to be replaced. I will definitely get a quote from this company.

Excellent customer service. I wanted a humidifier put on the heating system in the attic, and Sila checked it out but explained the downside to having it including potential freezing of the pipes. I appreciated their knowledge and not selling me something that would not really be practical

I have a 2 family home which is 3 floors then the basement. All the boilers are in the basement. I live on the first floor, then my tenant lives on the second and third floor. One of the radiators on the third floor wasn't getting hot at all, not even the piping to the unit. My husband is somewhat handy so he tried doing the work himself however he couldn't fix it. So we called Sila, they were able to get out the next morning. Peter was very puntual and very professional. He even put on those clothes coverings over his shoes so he didn't mark up my hardwood floors. After going from the basement to the third floor a few times, Peter figured out what it was. Fortunately it wasn't a extensive repair (well not yet anyway) and fixed it in 40 minutes or so.

Furnace/boiler service was professional and, when the job was complete, he reviewed for us the work he had done. We were impressed and asked about central air conditioning. Steve visited us in December, explained the work involved installing their central air conditioning system in our home now heated by forced hot water (no duct work in place). His presentation was excellent, the price in the mid to high range, but when we checked references in town all were very pleased and one said, "Having them install their central air system was one of the best decisions we ever made."

I contacted Sila the end of December and was given an appointment for 1-7-13 as this really was not an emergency. I have been having a problem with my heat not working as effeciently as it should. Craig and Bobby showed up 15 minutes early and began working immediately. They asked about the problem that I was having etc. I had indicated that I had my compressor replaced in the summer (by another Angie's List vendor) and they went to check it out. Within the first 10 minutes they determined that the compressor was not replaced correctly and that was creating my heating problem. They replaced a part that should have been replaced in the summer and gave me a detailed listing of the changes that needed to be made. The heat was back up and running within 35 minutes of their visit. They took the time to try to educate me as to what the problem was and the steps that I needed to take to correct it. They were very patient with me and their work was clean and efficient. I wished that I has used Sila when I had problems last summer. I will use them again!!!!
Description of Work: Checked heating/AC unit for overall efficiency. Replaced bad capacitor. Provided me with a detailed report of the problems of an improper installation of compressor (from a different Angie's list vendor).

Description of Work: used this company because of a special offer with Groupon for an inspection. Ended up costing me $560 for work that I did not realize I needed. Apparently I had something wrong with my a/c but I had no way of confirming that I actually needed the repair.

All went well. Sila installed our air conditioning system several years ago, has been servicing that annually, and also serviced our boiler last year. I purchased an Angie's List Big Deal for this service and was able to schedule the service within about 10 days. Two technicians arrived on time (one of them had been here last year - he seemed to be the more experienced & did all the talking, the other didn't say much). I explained some concern I had about the water heater venting properly and they said they would check it out. They explained everything what they were going to do and answered all the questions I had thoroughly. They seemed to be very knowledgeable about what they were doing and we've had no trouble with the boiler in the 1 1/2 heating seasons since they've been servicing the boiler.

They were prompt and candid about the state of our air conditioning unit. It's an older unit, and the gentleman stated that if anything goes on the unit - not to bother trying to fix it as the system is too old and too small for the home (which makes sense because you have to run it constantly, luckily in Boston you don't need it that much).

The entire experience went off without any problems. They inspected the heating system; recommended a part be replaced and completed the cleaning and inspection in less than an hour.
Description of Work: Sila completed a cleaning and inspection of the heating system. It was covered by the Service Plan so there was no actual charge beyond the cost of the Service Plan. I have used this service for the past two years and am completely satisfied. The technicians are polite, well informed and very competent. They were running late due to traffic congestion, so they called ahead to inform me that they would be a little late arriving.

Arrived on time, completed work quickly. No problems. This was a special deal from Angie's List. Other estimates I got for this work started out about 3 to 4 times higher. This did not take much time, perhaps a half hour to hour at the most. Would not have wanted to pay more.
