"Beware of shipping issues with this company. Ordered an ice maker installation kit on 10/10/25. Shipping was due no later than 10/20 according to company and FedEx tracking. FedEx tracking showed the package at their facility for 8 days without moving beginning on 10/15. Called FedEx 3 times. Each time they said they cannot find package and I have to contact shipper. Shipper has to make a claim, they will not mark it as lost. Called Appliance Parts Pros twice. Each time they say FedEx has to mark package lost before they will do anything. They also state they have to wait 14 days from them before doing anything because of their contract with FedEx. I don't care about their contract, I want what was ordered and paid for.

Fast and honest Quality Residential Electrical Service with 38 years of experience at only $75.00/hr. Also provide Commercial Electrical Service.

"Frances is pleasant to talk with and was punctual and responsive. My problem was that he's probably too busy. When I received his invoice, he charged me for the recessed lights that *I* had already purchased and then I had to prove myself by showing him the receipt. He charged me 2x the Home Depot price for Romex (which I had 100 feet of in my garage, ready to go). He put in dimmer switches that didn't match the coloring of my house project (old switches were almond, new switches should have been white) and then indicated he thought I wanted almond color since those were in other places (so were the white!). He should have asked what color I wanted, but didn't and then didn't offer to replace them. This experience left a bad taste in my mouth, I'd not hire him again."

"I was told I was getting an appliance A/C tech, who knew how to service Air Conditioners. The Technician arrived...had no idea what to do...Had to search the repair procedure on the internet !! The tech informed me, that he doesn't work on these units or know anything about them. Nothing was correctly serviced or fixed. The problem returned in 2 hours, and I was charged almost $300 for nothing. For $300 dollars, nothing got solved. Terrible service, WAY TOO EXPENSIVE for no result."

"My only minor complaint is that the work was scheduled for 8:30 but the crew did not show up until about 10:30. I had planned to work a half day from home but ended up working the whole day from home. (I am fortunate that my employer is flexible.) Other than that, everything was great. They were professional, friendly, did good work, put down a tarp to protect my laminate flooring, and cleaned up after themselves. I would recommend them to others and would use them again."

Welcome to Jamie's Heating & Cooling, proudly serving the Newbury area. With over 12 years experience in heating, ventilation and air conditioning service and sales, you can count on Jamie's Heating & Cooling for high quality service and affordable rates.

"I needed to replace my old boiler and hot water heater. Jamie was responsive to my request for proposal, suggested a indirect hot water heater connected to the boiler, gave me the best price for the install, and was flexible with the work schedule. He showed up on time, and completed the job in the timeframe estimated. He cleaned up after himself and disposed the old boiler and hot water heater. He came back the day after installation to ensure that the boiler was functioning properly. Responded within 24 hours for a follow up visit to fix the pitch of the exhaust pipe. The only negative comment I have is that I did not know that a sump pump was needed to handle the condensate from the new boiler, and I did not like the location of the tubing tacked to the wall to take the condensate to the washing machine discharge pipe. I'm not sure there was an alternative location, but I would have preferred that we had a discussion about alternatives. Otherwise, everything went very well. I would highly recommend."

Water Heaters questions, answered by experts

Traditional gas or electric water heaters last an average of six to 11 years. However, with excellent maintenance, they can last up to 15 years. Heat pump water heaters, on the other hand, last an average of between 12 and 15 years and potentially longer with proper maintenance. In both cases, your home's water quality can be a determining factor regarding the lifespan of your water heater.

No, you’ll need to drain the tank before changing a water heater element, as the water heater element sticks through the side of the tank and uses a gasket to prevent water from pouring out. However, you don’t always need to drain it completely. If you’re only replacing the upper heating element, you can drain the tank until the water line is below the element. If you’re replacing the lower element, you’ll need to drain the whole thing.

You can and should vent the gas from your hot water heater to the outside of your home. Traditionally, these gases were vented back to other gas appliances, like stoves or furnaces, but many jurisdictions have outlawed this practice due to the risks it provides. 

Most water heaters today use atmospheric venting that exhausts the gas out of the home through a pipe.

A thermocouple is a pretty simple device. It simply tells the control valve if heat is present. Most water heaters can use a universal thermocouple, provided it's the correct length. Getting one that's long enough for your appliance is crucial for success. However, some water heater models require model-specific thermocouples, which is why it's essential to take your existing one to the store to find the right match.

While possible, professional assistance is recommended to ensure compliance with local regulations and avoidance of avoidable risks.
