We had a new 3.5 ton Trane heat pump, air handler and digital Trane thermostat. installed over the course of two days. The first crew to arrive took out the old oil furnace and air handler from under the house and prepared the site for a new air handler and heat strips in place of the old oil furnace. They hauled off the old furnace and heat pump. The next wave of workers brought the new air handler and Trane heat pump and installed them. Next came the electricians who ran a new power line from the circuit breaker box under the house to the air handler. The next day the final HVAC inspector came by to test the whole system. I was impressed by how well coordinated the whole process was and how everyone worked together in succession to make the installation process fast and efficient. Their cleanup after the job was very good. The were also good to take off boots before entering the house or wear booties. Boer Bros. also coordinated a $200 rebate from Duke Energy which arrived about a month after the installation. This was for the energy efficient Trane heat pump. We've had the new heat pump and air handler for a month now and are very pleased with the heat they produce (in cold weather) and the increased efficiency of the Trane heat pump. It doesn't cycle on and off nearly as much as the old Amana heat pump we took out. I will definitely use Boer Bros. for HVAC inspections and maintenance in the years to come.

A neighbor came over to help, and while we did get the burner to relight, it would not stay lit. He diagnosed the problem but said our heater needed a unique part that could not be easily obtained locally and since we were inexperienced with water heaters, we decided to call a plumber to confirm the diagnosis and correct the problem. The first plumber came to the same conclusion, but due to a personal injury, was not able to come back and fix the issue. We then called Cary Plumbing. Unfortunately, they gave us a totally different diagnosis. The plumber they sent told us that there were cracks in our tank, despite the lack of any signs of leaking, and that he could hear them expanding and contracting. The upshot is that we needed an entirely new water heater at a cost of $1,479 installed! Naturally, we felt compelled to get a second opinion. The third plumber confirmed the original diagnosis of only needing a part replaced, obtained it from a supply house and replaced it for us within a few days. It is now November and the water heater works just fine. So, much for the cracked tank theory! Seems this is something an experienced plumber should have readily known (even our neighbor knew this) and that this was a blatant attempt to sell us a rather expensive and totally unnecessary product!

It went fine. He explained to me what the heat levels should be at, and recommend that this be done every year. He gave me recommendations on other things, which was nice because he didn't have to do that.

"This is a response to a review that I did a couple of months ago. Even though I was upset with the service that I got from one of the text who I would call vindictive I wanted to the office that next morning, and I asked for a manager, and I got Mr. Curtis, and Mr. Curtis told me that he would come out to the house and he would bring a check with him and his name was Travis. And when I tell you that Mr. Curtis made me feel like he was a superman like he could just change everything and he , as a manager went up underneath my house to check and see if there was anything wrong the unit to see if there was anything wrong in it Iâ ll say Travis and also the inside of the house. And again I say, Mr. Curtis, Iâ ll give you a 10 for everything that you did , you change my mind about the way I felt about the service tech at Blantons and sometimes it takes just one to renew your faith and a thing even though my faith is in God but faith and people and I thank you for everything that you did Blantons truly has a jewel and Mr. Curtis and Travis too because heâ s good in his right But I think you not to say that I donâ t have a problem with the unit, but Iâ m satisfied.

"Still waiting for a call back after initial visit. They were to move forward but no time schedule yet and A/C not working.
As of now, this looks like 4 days of wasted time as I am not sure their customer service exist. The lady this morning said she would mark as urgent and get to a manager. You would think a simple call to a customer explaining backlog or schedule repair date should not take more than 5 minutes.
Will give them until later today and then move on..."

FAQs for heating oil service projects in Carrboro, NC
To buy heating oil for your house, contact local heating oil companies to compare prices and place an order once you decide on a supplier. The company will have to deliver your heating oil in a truck designed to carry and dispense heating oil safely. Call and order your heating oil early enough to have your oil delivered before you need to start using it for home heating.
On average, you’ll need about two gallons of oil per day to heat your house when it’s 50 degrees Fahrenheit outside. Most oil tank capacity is about 275 gallons, and heating your house with two gallons of oil per day will last about four and a half months. This consumption will vary depending on the climate and average temperature in your location. For example, if the winters are longer and colder where you live, you’ll probably need to refill your oil tank at least once to get through the winter.
You save money on heating oil in a few ways:
Make sure your home is well insulated and sealed against drafts and heat leakage.
Use a thermostat that’s working properly and calibrated accurately.
Program your thermostat to lower the heat when you’re not home.
Order heating oil during the off-season when prices are likely to be lower.
Summer months tend to be when heating oil prices are lowest because of decreased demand. Buying heating oil during the off-season also prepares you for when the weather gets cold, and you need to start using the oil to heat your home. Although heating oil prices will fluctuate, it’s best to avoid purchasing between September and April, as that's the peak season for heating oil demand.
Overall, heating your home with an oil furnace tends to be less expensive than heating your home with an electric heating system. Oil heating systems stay warm for longer periods of time without drawing a constant electrical current to maintain a temperature. Plus, heating oil systems typically have a longer lifespan and lower price tag than their electrical counterparts, resulting in short- and long-term savings.
