"During the massive December 2022 blizzard in Western New York, my house lost power for three consecutive days. I'd just switched to an all electric HVAC system weeks before, and none of it was connected to the small electrical panel that my gas generator could power. We were facing no heat, in a blizzard, for three days. I called Connor who, despite the weather conditions, came out to the house that evening. He opened my generator panel and rewired it so it would get heat to my kids' rooms. Without asking, he then found a great price on a Generac whole house generator and passed the information along to me. Long story short, I hired Enchanted Mountain to purchase and install the generator. They did that and more. My family now has no worries when the next blizzard hits. The care, knowledge, and attention to detail that go into Enchanted Mountain work are unmatched. I've since hired them for everything from roof repairs to insulation and weatherization jobs. They can do it all, and you won't find a nicer, more helpful and caring crew anywhere in the region. Hire them once, and, like me, you'll plan to hire them for life."

"The guys were great, very professional and friendly. They came to inspect the basement area before the installation to make sure they would have everything they needed to do the job. When they came back to do the furnace installation it was done quickly and effectively. We love the new furnace and are toasty warm!"

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

Propane is more cost-efficient than natural gas on a per-unit basis because it produces twice as much heat energy as an equivalent amount of natural gas. But propane is not ideal if you already have a gas line installed. The best choice for your home depends on the efficiency of your appliances and the amount of installation required of your fuel choice.

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.

The cost-efficiency of baseboard heaters depends on the type and how you use them. Generally, standard electric baseboard heaters can be expensive to run because they use electric resistance heating, which is less energy-efficient than systems like forced-air or heat pumps. However, hydronic and gas versions are typically much cheaper to operate. Hydronic models are more energy-efficient because they heat a liquid that retains warmth longer, preventing the thermostat from turning on and off as often. The overall running cost is also influenced by local electricity rates, your home's insulation, and your usage habits. To increase efficiency, you can use baseboard heaters for zoning, meaning you only heat the specific rooms you are using.

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.

A common HVAC rule is that for every 500 to 600 square feet of living space, you need 1 ton of heating or cooling capacity. Now that you know this common rule, you also need to know that it isn’t very accurate, and a dedicated pro wouldn’t use it for your home. If you talk to a pro who won’t or can’t perform a proper Manual J calculation, consider hiring someone more thorough.
