"WARNING - make sure you get a fully price estimate up front before they begin to do work. I brought them in to work on furnace/AC unit/split AC unit servicing garage (based on a promotional price for the first two). It was found my split unit needed a recharge for coolant and I was told that it'd only be 5 lbs of coolant and that this would be priced by the pound (which was reasonable). The bill came and they tacked on a flat charge of $219 for the coolant (this is in addition to the $129 charge to look over the split unit). I felt baited-and-switched. I also contacted them about this, and the answer came down to "This is additional profit for us added onto your bill." Not pleased. At all. Particularly since the coolant in question costs approximately $6 per pound and they only used 5 lbs (one would assume that the $129 charge built in enough profit for labor/licenses/equipment due to the limited time spent working on the split unit. Apparently not). Comfort By Design does excellent work, and they do stand by their work, but just be VERY CAREFUL in finding out what they're going to charge you, particularly if something extra comes up when they're doing a job."

"Andy was great! He did an inspection for our new construction. Luckily there were no major issues, but he did find some minor details that we definitely would have missed (ex. garage door had too much slack, the HVAC pipes were too smooshed together not allowing for fully efficient air flow, of course minor aesthetic details as well, etc.). We reached out to him on a Monday, and he was there for the inspection on Thursday with a great price. He also was very generous with his time in talking to us and explaining what he is seen in other homes for potential problems and gave us tips for home care after seeing our home. This was very nice for us as first time home buyers. I would hire him again!"

"Do not use this company. Installed grossly incorrect AC system which was completely incompatible and never worked.

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

Yes, a hot fire can burn off creosote, and it’s recommended to start one before using a creosote log to heat up any stuck tar within your chimney. A creosote log can then cure and hopefully loosen creosote buildup.

A sneaky but important element to how long your new fireplace runs is choosing the right burner size. Avoid choosing a bioethanol fireplace with a small burner (less than two gallons) and opt for one that holds between two to four gallons for a longer burn time or else you’ll be stuck frequently refilling your fireplace.

Both wood stoves and fireplaces are effective at heating, but wood stoves are more efficient, meaning more of the fuel is converted to heat rather than lost. Wood stoves, depending on the capacity, can also heat larger spaces, while fireplaces are better for heating smaller areas, like an individual room.

You’ll need vented logs if you have a vented gas fireplace and vent-free logs if you have a ventless gas fireplace. If you aren’t sure which type of fireplace you have, contact a local gas fireplace service. They’ll help identify your fireplace and explain which type of logs you need to run it.

Annual cleaning is generally recommended, mainly if the fireplace is used frequently, ensuring functionality and safe operation.
