"Very satisfied with responsiveness, punctuality and professionalism! Danny was able to squeeze us into Blue Star's full schedule at a time that worked for us and called before the visit for clarification about the problem, and after the visit about how things went. John called before arrival to let us know about exact timing, and was very thorough in investigating the problem and then explaining the situation. After consultation, he was able to repair our system. John also discussed what to look out for in case there are problems in the future. We have had our AC unit serviced regularly by other companies, but we will never use those other companies again. Blue Star is superior in every way! Cannot recommend highly enough. Thank you, Danny and John!!"

"Just had an emergency visit to replace capacitor in one of my two HVAC units. Was able to schedule my favorite tech Kevin through the excellent front desk staff. Called in early morning and same day repair work - and Kevin fixed the problem even though the house electricity suddenly cut off halfway through the visit due to the remnants of Hurricane Debby coming through. Our family been with Holtzople since 2008 with the installation and maintenance of two TRANE heat pump units. We have always been extremely happy with Holtzople. Their expertise and knowledge of HVAC operations is superb. But most importantly, from the HVAC techs and Kevin to the front office staff, the people at Holtzople are kind, helpful and genuinely interested in taking care of us. This shows in our semiannual service plan visits as well as the rare emergency needs that pop up like the situation discussed above. And we have been very happy with our TRANE HVAC units. We will have Holtzople as our HVAC company forever. We highly recommend them to all our local friends and neighbors in central Maryland. Simply a great company with great people. 👍"

"I can’t say enough excellent things about Lance, the service technician who came out! We just purchased our first home so imagine our surprise when barely a month in the large grand chandelier fell from the ceiling in the early morning. I was going to replace it myself but remembered our home inspection pointed out some instances of aluminum wiring in the house so I thought I should have an electrician confirm the outlet was properly done before I go mucking around in the ceiling. Although it cost me an emergency dispatch fee, they had someone in my house first thing the very next morning. Lance was prompt and just so amazing - very kind and careful with keeping our house clean, taking care of the floors and finishings and really went above and beyond to help a very frazzled young family try figure out the mess they just purchased. While he was at our house we opted to have him also see if he could remove two outlets in the dining room from a dimmer switch so they can be always on. He explained the pricing up front and I knew what the job would cost as a final number before he began any work. For the first job, I was very impressed with how thorough and complete he was in taking care of not just the replacement chandelier, but even with safely disposing of the now broken old chandelier for us! He even offered to help move some boxes for the Salvation Army pick-up we had scheduled - I was just blown away by how kind and helpful he was! For the second job, I was so very pleased that he took the time to really figure out what was wrong. He ended up spending almost three hours discovering several issues - including things like faulty attempts at mitigating aluminum wire connection points in several outlets that we received confirmation prior to settling on the home had been fixed. He was able to come up with creative solutions to safely leverage what was already available to solve our problem and the best part is he really took the time to not only do it right, but to explain everything as he went and really helped me learn more about my house and how I can discover and resolve similar problems in the future. Being someone who is always trying to learn I really appreciated his willingness to answer my questions and share his depth of knowledge and experience! In the end, even though the job was a lot longer than either of us thought it would be, and even though the original cause for the emergency dispatch was already resolved, Lance made sure he stayed until we had a solution in place and we still only paid the initial quoted price! Yes, the price did seem a bit high compared to what I’ve seen on other provider’s quoted rates. However, the work really is just that good - absolutely worth it AND charging by the job instead of the hour takes all of the guessing out of how much you will need to pay, not to mention covers situations like this where the job ended up taking quite a bit longer than originally anticipated. We couldn’t be happier. We were so pleased with the service that we also signed up for their annual service plan to avoid emergency dispatch fees in the future and to get their annual safety inspection. There’s a lot of uncertainty associated with buying our first home, but at least we now know who we will call for all of our electrical needs!"

"Sean was very prompt in responding to me request for service and did his absolute best to accommodate my schedule at my convenience. He was very flexible overall and helped get my AC repair ASAP after it was broken. This was especially helpful since it was getting warm outside! He was on time for all of our appointments and communicated what needed to be done/fixed clearly, so I wasn’t left with a huge bill that I wasn’t expecting. Expectations are very important and he seems to understand. I would highly recommend Sean and/or his team for any issues you might have for a cost effective and friendly solution. Thank you so much for your help Sean!"

"I reached out to Angi’s to find a HVAC company to help with my AC that was blowing hot air in the summer. I got super lucky when I found MSR Heating and Cooling. They arrived on time and assessed my situation. I appreciated the time they took to explain the issue in ways I understood as well as recommend the best option for me. The estimate quote was fair and there were no surprise expenses to repair my unit. I can’t thank the owner, Moises enough for a job well done. His professionalism, knowledge and skills are reflected in the quality of work performed. I would highly recommend this company for your next repair."

"We initially called Davis and Davis when our A/C started blowing hot air. They came out three separate times, charged us money for repairs that didn't work, then decided we needed a full replacement for $4,500. We called Buric for a second opinion. Tom arrived on time, took 20 minutes to (correctly) find the problem, told us we didn't need a replacement, and repaired it for just over $400. It works great to this day. He pretty much restored our belief that honest technicians still exist in the world and saved us like $4,000. Only had one experience with them, but will always recommend them."

"I recently had a HVAC and water heater installation by Carroll Mechanical, Cris Lopez and his team. They were very respectful of my home and professional throughout the install. I am grateful and appreciative of working with the owner on deciding the HVAC unit to be installed. I found him to be the consummate professional, a person of integrity, transparent, responsive to my questions and willing to work with me to gain my business. I highly recommend Carroll Mechanical."

"Awesome! Someone answered right away when I called and told me a technician could be here in 30 minutes. It was actually only 20 minutes when Dan arrived and he was extremely professional and pleasant. He diagnosed the problem on our two systems, explained everything thoroughly with a reasonable repair estimate, then completed the work. He was here for about an hour and now the house is nice and cool, while it’s 95 degrees outside!"

Boiler Repair FAQs, answered by experts

The average lifespan of a boiler is typically between 15 and 20 years, though some may last for as little as 10 years while others can reach 30. A boiler's longevity is influenced by several factors, including the quality of the unit, proper installation, and consistent professional maintenance.

The material also plays a significant role. Older boilers made from durable cast iron can last for over 20 years, with some functioning for up to 50 years. However, it's important to consider their lower efficiency, which can lead to higher utility bills. Modern boilers, often made from steel alloys, are designed to withstand high pressure and temperatures and have an average lifespan of about 20 years.

To maximize your boiler's lifespan, ensure it is installed correctly, have it professionally maintained each year, and address any necessary repairs immediately.

A furnace is a big unit where gas, heating oil, or electricity heats the air. The warmed air is then pushed back out through ducts and vents. 

A boiler uses electricity, heating oil, or gas to heat water that is pushed into the room through a radiator. This is one of the oldest and most effective ways to heat a house, but radiators can also be unsightly and leave hot and cold spots in the room.

Heat pumps use a refrigerant to move heat from outside into the house and return it to the room through ducts and vents.

The primary differences between a heat pump and a boiler are their function and how they produce heat. A heat pump is a versatile system that provides both heating and cooling by moving ambient air and altering its temperature. In contrast, a boiler is solely a heating system, often working with a furnace or AC unit as part of a larger HVAC system. In terms of heat production, a heat pump generates heat more slowly and at a lower temperature, requiring a large convector for distribution. A boiler, however, produces a large amount of high-temperature heat that it emits through smaller radiators.

Costs depend on issue severity, parts needed, and labor rates.

Deciding whether to repair or replace your HVAC system largely depends on its age, the cost of repairs, and its overall performance. If the system is over a decade old and requires frequent or expensive repairs (e.g., totaling over $5,000), replacement is often the more cost-effective choice, especially if the warranty has expired. It is usually worth repairing a newer system, but if it is approaching the end of its typical 15- to 25-year lifespan, replacement might be a better long-term investment. Signs that you may need a replacement include increased humidity, higher energy bills, uneven heating or cooling, and excessive dust. Before deciding, ask your HVAC contractor to check if any parts are covered under warranty, which could save you money on repairs.
