"They came on a Saturday and diagnosed the problem at no cost. Then they saved us over $1700 by finding a replacement motor and controller and not buying it from Bryant/Carrier. They found one nearby and installed it on Monday. We had originally contacted one of the larger, established local firms who charged us just to diagnose the problem and wanted to order the OEM replacement. Even just replacing just the controller that way would have cost double what the motor-controller combo cost using All About. The markups on these parts is just ridiculous. All About Heat & Air earned my future business."

"We use Shear Comfort to perform routine maintenance on our units.  This year they discovered the coil in the second level air handler was rusting badly and had developed a freon leak.  Since the system used the old freon, which is getting expensive, and I had concerns about the compressor unit's long-term health, we opted to replace the system.  The price we were quoted was reasonable considering the equipment and installation.
Unfortunately, I was going on an extended business trip and was not going to be home when we scheduled installation.  To further complicate matters, my wife's office is directly underneath whether the second level air handler resides in the attic, and the attic access is in her office. 
Shear Comfort showed up as promised, and did the installation with no disruption to my wife's work.  She reported to me that she really did not notice them working above her, and considering she spends a reasonable amount of time on the phone, that says something.  They completed the work as expected and the system was back up and running.
When I returned home I inspected the work.  If I had not known the air handler had been replaced, I would not have known any work had been done.  The attic was neat, the work well done, and everything else left in as good or better condition than it was when I left.  Same for the area around the compressor unit outside.
Everything was first rate, they showed up as promised (around here, that is rare enough to be unusual), they used quality equipment, the price was good, and I know from past experience they stand behind their work.  Shear Comfort long ago earned my loyalty, and they reinforced that during this job.
I only wish their service area extended to my mother-in-law, who is 450 miles away!

"Mike's quoted 3 systems; the multi-zone Mitsubishi hyper-heat system was about twice the cost of the Trane single-zone std. heatpump. The quote from a 2nd HVAC installer for a standard Carrier single-zone heatpump system was only $1000 less than Mike's Mitsubishi system. I wasn't originally considering the Mitsubishi because of the cost but the Carrier-system quote changed my mind. It took two days to complete. The installers were efficient, professional and amiable. They did a good job and took the time they needed to install the equipment correctly and make it look good. The condensor unit was delivered to Mike's with a dent; they gave me the option of a price break or getting another unit shipped next-day. The Mitsubishi system they installed operates much differently from the 13 year old standard-heatpump-system it replaces; before they left, the technician took the time to explain what to expect regarding the system's operation and encouraged me to contact Mike's if I had any questions or concerns."

"Zach is one of those men you have a good feeling about the moment you speak to him.  He came to give me an estimate a few days after I spoke with him and it was very reasonable.  He and his crew of two others were so incredibly nice when they arrived.  I had initially just needed the gas line for the kitchen range.  The day before they were to arrive, I had a dishwasher delivered by Home Depot that was not able to be installed.  I called Zach and left him a message asking if he could install the dishwasher as well.  So with hardly any notice, they stayed an extra hour and did that as well.  I was very happy with the work they completed and with how pleasant they all were.  I will definitely be using All Ways for all my future plumbing needs!  Honest and hard working!  Thanks guys!!

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

Coolant and antifreeze are technically not the same thing. The difference between the two is the ratio of water to other chemicals. True antifreeze is mainly made up of either ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, while coolant comprises one part antifreeze and one part water. However, the terms coolant and antifreeze are often used interchangeably, even by pros.

If your boiler is 20 years old, it’s time to get a new one. Although it may seem to be working fine, it’s likely eating up more fuel than it should. Also, compared to a brand-new boiler, one that’s 20 years old is probably not working as well. When you get your new unit, you’ll notice that your home is heating more quickly, and the heat is consistent throughout all the rooms.

Oil boilers provide reliable heating, efficiency, and long-term cost savings compared to electric options.

The best way to compare HVAC quotes is getting a few detailed quotes from local companies with good reputations. Then, go over the quotes line by line. Protect yourself by insisting on in-person estimates that include equipment manufacturer names, model numbers, SEER ratings, amounts and numbers of materials, details of warranties on equipment and labor, and other specifics. 

Knowing the exact equipment and materials is the only way that you can fairly compare quotes. Quotes that are much lower than others can be a sign that the company isn’t providing the best quality service or materials.

Hydronic and standard electric baseboard heaters differ in how they operate, their cost, and their performance. Standard convection heaters use electric coils to heat the air directly, while hydronic heaters warm a contained liquid like water or oil, which then radiates heat into the room.

In terms of cost and efficiency, hydronic heaters usually have a higher upfront price but are more energy-efficient and cheaper to run over time. This is because the heated liquid retains warmth, allowing the heater to continue providing heat for a while after the thermostat turns it off. In contrast, electric heaters provide heat more quickly but are less efficient.

Ultimately, the better choice depends on your priorities. If you need a room to heat up fast and have a lower initial budget, an electric heater might be suitable. If long-term energy savings are more important and you don't mind a slower heat-up time, a hydronic heater is likely the better option.
