"Pronto has a great communication process - we received reminders and a text when the tech was on his way. Travis is an expert at what he does and very friendly. He was also patient with all of our questions and answered them thoroughly. We had two leaky valves replaced and provided us information about adding zones and took time to educate us on the parts of our boiler."
"We chose Standard Plumbing and Heating on the recommendation of a friend who had a new furnace and water heater installed as well as the great reviews we found online. Standard Plumbing and Heating was so professional and helpful. Cody came to our home to look at our existing units and to help us understand which furnace and water heater would be the best for our home. He was prompt, extremely knowledgable and personable. The installers were kind and courteous and made sure to protect our carpet and walls while carrying and installing the new furnace and water heater. The communication, customer service, and installation were first rate; and we will be recommending Standard Heating and Cooling to our friends and family. We also appreciate that it is a local, family-owned business with long history and substantial ties to our community."
"Installed a new furnace for us during the winter when we needed it the most. They were able to install it 2 days after we asked for them to service our old existing furnace in which they showed us why it needed to be replaced. Quick and clean instillation with two knowledgeable and friendly employees."
"This guy Vitale is great! He was very knowledgeable and honest! He did not try to tell me I need a new furnace like the other companies, even though that is mostly his business (installing new systems). He fired up my furnace and said I can definitely keep using my current furnace if I want to...that it was not necessary to replace it. If I decide to get a new furnace, I'm using him for sure!"
"I recently had Prolific Mechanical install a new air conditioning system, and I couldn't be happier with the results. The young man who completed the installation was professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. He took pride in his work, kept everything clean, and made sure the installation was done correctly from start to finish. The new system runs flawlessly and keeps the house comfortable even on the hottest days. I highly recommend Prolific Mechanical to anyone looking for quality workmanship and dependable HVAC service."
"Kody was quick at troubleshooting and finding out issue on our air conditioner gave us options on repairs and replacement and within 24 hours we have a new air conditioner installed and running like a dream on this hot summer day!"

"My old water heater was replaced in my small condo utilty room, then we found mold in the wall behind the furnace. The water heater had to come back out to fully mitigate the mold. Today it was reinstalled. The process was smooth. Dustin did the work and was efficient, friendly and professional. I highly recommend O'Boys for any plumbing and heating needs."
"This report actually covers two visits. We had the two toilets installed in November 2009 and the rest of the stuff in March 2010. Based on reports on Randy Lane & Sons on Angie's List, we specifically chose Donnie to install our toilets. On the first visit for the toilet installation Donnie came with an apprentice plumber. The apprentice plumber installed the basement toilet and Donnie installed the main bathroom toilet. Both original toilets had not been installed properly--so both took extra time to prep before the new toilets could be installed. They were able to accommodate us during the basement toilet install while we finished putting down some tile squares in the area that the original toilet was before the new one was installed. Donnie was great. When there were any installation considerations, he would let us know what the options were. He was friendly, considerate, came in the time frame they said he would come, and also called when he was about 15 minutes out. He mentioned that he works mainly in older homes so he was able to quickly resolve any problems without much hesitation. During his first visit we showed him what we wanted him to do on his next visit. We followed that up with an email showing him pictures of the items that we were going to purchase. He reviewed them and promptly got back to us. That was very valuable to us as he told us what wouldn't work--that saved us money and not having the hassle of returning something."
Unless they are connected to the same system, boilers and water heaters will both need their own expansion tanks. The only case they wouldn’t have separate expansion tanks is if the boiler is pulling double duty and managing a heating system while also supplying hot water for a home. In which case, you may not need a hot water heater.
Radiators are a popular home heating choice in older homes, but they are becoming less common in new-construction homes. According to a 2022 report by Elements Visual Capitalist, only around 1.3% of new single-family homes have radiators and similar heating systems, such as baseboard heating.
While they may not be as popular as they once were, radiators today come with more energy-efficient features that can make them practical for modern homeowners.
The main difference between an outdoor wood furnace versus an outdoor wood boiler is what each appliance is heating. An outdoor wood furnace burns wood to create heat, which warms the air and moves it through the ducts in your home. An outdoor wood boiler uses the heat from burning wood to warm water, which goes through pipes to radiators in the home.
Oil boilers provide reliable heating, efficiency, and long-term cost savings compared to electric options.
The radiators closest in proximity to the boiler heating system will heat up first. Radiators in rooms farther away from the boiler will take longer to heat up and may be the coolest rooms in the house. The radiator unit itself should heat up evenly; otherwise, there may be trapped air inside it.
