They were also instrumental in getting everything up and running the way it should. Custom Home Service did a great job taking care of the details, and always had time for any of our questions. They did a great job!!"

"I was very impressed with the installer who was sent. He mounted the dish without drilling through my new roof, which might have voided my roof warranty, Also, he mounted the dish in a location where it is easy for me to brush the snow off it in winter. I appreciate his knowledge and thoughtfulness. Also, they didn't charge me to re-install the dish."

"

Just having moved to a cold weather area, we were unfamiliar with the difference between a furnace and a boiler, so we bought the furnace maintenance check-up. When the technician arrive he was unsure what

to do as he specializes in furnaces and that was how the appointment was listed. He did the best he could, but to ensure we received the best service and to address concerns that he was unfamiliar with, he contacted his supervisor. Within 10 minutes his supervisor arrived and they performed the inspection together, so we knew we had gotten a thorough check-up. They did not try to sell us on a bunch of things wrong with the unit though it is from the mid-80s, but they did state that there would be an additional cost as pricing is different for furnaces and boilers. I was a bit upset at first, but with the quality of service and that it was our mistake I was happy to pay. Further, we discuss the solar tank (we have older solar panels) which was showing rust at the bottom. Again, the supervisor gave a suggestion of buying a water sensor in case the tank ruptures while we are home, but didn't state it had to be changed out immediately. He suggested moving to a smaller wall-hung boiler  when we are ready to retire the current boiler and solar water heating system, but gave a rough estimate of $12k installed. He stated it would be about 20% more efficient, but again it was just a suggestion. They stated they would rather have repeat customers than try to squeeze every penny from someone and get a bad reputation. We will use them again as they were courteous, knowledgeable (if one didn't know, he was willing to ask for assistance), and very informative.

"I purchased 2 fans and storm door and Bob and his partner installed both in a 3 hour time window.  Because the install required access to my attic I was a little nervous about having insulation all over the bedroom floor. When they were done installing the fans they cleaned up all areas where they worked and also around the access hatch leading to the attic. Very impressed with the cleanup...never knew they had installed the fans. After the fans they installed the storm door on the front entrance. Again very pleased with the work and cleanup.

"The last was a rental company that we have and we used them for an air conditioning and heating system. It was Bototach Mechanical. It’s been a good program for us. They’re very responsive. I don’t know what the thought process was. My husband said, well let’s try these guys and so we did. We have an older home and it’s proved to be a very good deal. The quality has been pretty good, so I would give them an A for the quality. I will give you one helpful hint though. If the company decides they want to replace an appliance, you need to call them and negotiate with them because you can upgrade, but you need to talk to them in person not just do it over the internet."

Solar Panels questions, answered by experts

The average homeowner needs around 22 solar panels, but the exact number depends on your monthly energy consumption. Your solar professional should size your array to offset your consumption, meaning you’ll need fewer panels if you use below-average amounts of electricity, or more than 22 if you use above-average amounts of electricity. The number of panels also depends on the output of each panel. The average is around 400 watts, but you might need more panels if you install less capable equipment. Since there are so many variables, you should have a professional size your system.

While you can minimally overshoot the number of solar panels you need for your home, it's not smart to go too far. Not only is the extra cost unnecessary, but your state may put caps on how much energy your home can produce and send back to the grid. It is always best to work with a solar energy professional to determine the best system size for you.

The best solar-panel mounting system will depend on your property layout, but you’ll typically want to try for south-facing panels to get the most sun. Roof mounting and wall mounting are both popular, but if your well setup is far away from buildings and other structures you can also set up a freestanding aluminum frame to mount your panels.

Professionals use the same methods to install solar shingles that they do for asphalt shingles, so you’ll often see a similar installation timeline of one to two days. The amount of time required will depend on the size and slope of your roof and the number of shingles installed. Weather conditions can delay installation, as working on a roof is unsafe during high winds or heavy rain.

Solar panels can pay for themselves in five to 15 years, depending on the cost of your system, how much energy it generates, whether you qualify for incentives or power buybacks, and the price of energy in your area. Solar panels pay for themselves over time as they lower electricity bills, so it will take time to recoup your initial investment. However, the longer you have your system, the more money you can save and earn.
