"This was disappointing. We’ve been a customer since living in the area for 30+ years. So naturally I called them when there was a problem with my mother’s AC, as she now lives nearby. The AC unit was buzzing but the fan was not running. Unfortunately I could not be there for the repair, but all went well and the AC was back up and running. Then I saw mom’s bill. The repair cost was $495 for a ”Voltage Enhancement System Rejuvenation”. Something I’d never heard of and, according to a little research, doesn’t seem to exist. So I took a look at the unit and saw they replaced the capacitor, a $75 part, and cleaned the fan vents. I could have understood maybe $300, but according to Todd, who I called today, it's a “flat rate charge…and we have overhead…but we didn’t charge for the diagnostic”. He insisted the charge was fair and wouldn’t consider adjusting it. Now he understands that they just lost two customers, one a previously happy, longtime customer."

"After having the gas company come out and confirm that the furnace was slowly leaking gas from around the gas valve, we called Charest Heating & Cooling around 9:30pm on a Saturday night. They were very prompt in their response time to our house and their emergency after hours fee was reasonable and very competitive. The technician Josh was very polite and professional. He quickly confirmed that the gas valve needed to be replaced and provided me a quote for the job, not just an hourly fee like many other companies would have charged. It took a some time and travel for Josh to get the right valve for the job which was completely understandable that late on a weekend night. Once the part was in hand, the job was completed quickly. Josh remained very friendly and professional the entire time despite the late hour by the time the job was finished. We were very impressed with the availability, promptness and professionalism and we will definitely use again."

"stay away- they are very dangerous- improperly installed (twice before realizing their error) a natural gas water heater in a home that only has natural gas. Luckily no harm - this time- but realize the water heater states to use the proper gas- danger of harm including death. Please be aware that they took the old water heater out - so they should have known the type of gas (plus drove right pass the big outside LP tank multiple times) There are a lot of other issues but this was the most disturbing"

Water Softeners questions, answered by experts

A water softener removes minerals from your drinking water and can make your house water softer. These softeners are designed to extend the lifetime of your plumbing system while also making water safer and more palatable for drinking. Hard water, which is water with a heavy amount of suspended particles, can also cause hair damage, skin irritation, and buildup in your pipes.

Replacing a water softener costs $200 to $6,000, depending on the capacity of the water softener, the type of water softener, and the amount of people living in your home. An ion exchange water softener is the most common type and costs $500 to $3,000. Water distillers, which cost $1,200 to $4,000, and dual-tank models, which cost $1,000 to $5,000, are definitely pricey, but they offer more filtration or capacity, respectively.

You should not use a water conditioner with a water softener because a water conditioner changes the chemistry of the water and causes the ion exchange in a softener to be ineffective. Choose a water softener if you have hard water or well water, and use a water conditioner if you need to remove certain contaminants.

While not everyone can detect taste differences in high-calcium water, water that has a slightly metallic taste probably has too much calcium.

Hard water stains can be a headache because they will reoccur as long as hard water flows through. Thankfully, hard water stains are not permanent. With the right tools and an appropriate cleaning routine, you can prevent hard water stains from ever building up. However, you might feel like you are stuck in a constant cleaning cycle. In that case, you may consider hiring a contractor to perform routine cleaning.
