"During early Dec 2013, during one of the coldest winters in Michigan in 30 years, my furnace was having trouble keeping the house warm so I called Grand Ledge based Aire Serv to do a furnace check-up based on a coupon. They came out quickly and found a crack in the heat exchanger on my 20 year old furnace and shut it off, saying it was unsafe to run. Apparently it was about twice the BTU capacity than needed for the house and the constant shutting on and off had taken its toll. I was not the original owner so I am not sure why they over-sized the furnace.
I asked for quotes on a new furnace on the spot and they tried to sell me a $17,000 furnace and said no enough that the price came down to around $6,000. I really didn't like the very rehearsed sales pitch. It was so focused on how much better their warranty and service was compared to others that I knew it would be pricey. I really wish they had just laid out all their models and the features and prices and just let me pick my comfort level in features and prices rather than a sleazy sales pitch. I recommend you force them to skip the sales pitch and go straight to the facts.
I didn't have time to shop around and the house was very cold so I purchased one that night. They left some infrared heaters at no cost to help keep at least one room warm. I really appreciated that they offered to work a Saturday so we could have heat as soon as possible. They installed everything on time and as promised and were very nice. No complaints on the install experience at all.
I went with a two-stage Amana furnace at half the BTU of the previous furnace. It had no problems keeping the house warm during the rest of that very cold winter. I like the two-stage motor and have to set to always run on low when not heating or cooling. That keeps the air moving through the house for more even temperature and greater comfort - it really is noticeably better than on/off heating.
The exhaust venting couldn't go where they planned due to an unseen obstruction and so they had to vent it somewhere else that was a longer run and required extra work to get outside of the house. They did the extra work at no charge as promised.
Bottom line - they are an excellent company that did high quality work and kept all their promises and gave me an excellent product that fit my needs well and did it all on a tight timeline.
My only complaint is that since I was without heat, I feel I had to pay full price.But that is not their fault - that was mine for letting the furnace go bad and creating the emergency where I couldn't comparison shop.
When they sent me the post-installation survey, I sent a full response equivalent to what I have written here. They never responded back to me.

"We called Greg on a Friday morning and he was there that evening. He came back Monday to test the water and then installed a custom built water softener on Thursday.He evaluated what type of softener we needed by asking about our families particular needs. Greg was very knowledgeable of his product, explained exactly what work was going to be performed and the price. I was extremely pleased with his professionalism and punctuality. I would recommend Livingston Plumbing to anyone I know looking for plumbing work and look forward to working with Greg in the future."

"I emailed several plumbers.  Chad called and utilized my phone pictures to give me an estimate.  He came, removed and replaced two water lines.
What I liked best is that he took the time to explain to me about the product he was using.

Water Heaters FAQs, answered by experts

Typically, only a high-efficiency water heater with an inducer fan can be vented outside the house. Otherwise, your water heater needs to be installed on the inside and vented through the roof. However, certain areas may allow a standard-efficiency water heater to be vented outside. Check your local building codes to be sure.

No, boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different primary functions. Boilers are used for central heating systems, providing hot water or steam to heat your home. In contrast, a water heater's purpose is to supply hot water for daily household use, such as for faucets and showers. A water heater alone cannot supply the warm water or steam needed for a central heating system.

While they are not interchangeable, it is common to have both a boiler and a water heater. In fact, a conventional boiler often works best when a water heater system is already in place. The two systems can be combined to provide both heating and hot water, either by pairing a boiler with an indirect water heater or by installing a premade combination boiler-water heater unit. For home heating, some homeowners may also opt for a furnace instead of a boiler.

You can use multiple tankless water heaters, but that doesn’t mean you should. Adding multiple tankless heaters adds considerable cost to your home in both parts and installation costs. Also, you’re adding many more points of failure in the system, making plumbing issues harder to diagnose. More heaters mean more maintenance, and insurers may want a word regarding the increased risk of water damage. A single, larger unit makes more sense in most situations.

No. Expansion tanks must be installed on the supply side (where heated water flows out) of the boiler. There’s also a list of other requirements for most boilers, including being above the pressure relief valves, being on the inner side of any circulator, and more. Your installation manual should have more information on expansion tank installation requirements and what sort of tank the system is made for.

Yes, most municipalities have codes that require water heaters to have pans. A pan is necessary when a water heater or hot water storage tank is installed in an area where water leakage could cause damage, such as an attic, second floor, or finished basement. Tankless water heaters are not required to have a pan since there is no storage tank.
