Cellino Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electric is a trusted home services company serving Western New York. With decades of experience, we specialize in residential plumbing, heating, air conditioning, and electrical work. Our locally owned and operated team is committed to delivering reliable service, upfront pricing, and top-notch customer care. Whether it’s a routine repair or a full system installation, Cellino’s licensed technicians bring comfort and peace of mind to every home we serve.

"I’m reluctant to leave a negative review, but my recent experience with Cellino has left me no choice. I initially hired Cellino for a greenhouse HVAC project, based on a positive recommendation and previous great service with a furnace issue. On September 6, Chris came out to assess the job, spending significant time taking measurements and photos, and assured me they had handled similar projects. After weeks of visits and reassurances, we received a quote on September 18. Though it was higher than others, I trusted Cellino based on their professionalism. However, on October 22, over a month later and after multiple assessments, the installation team informed me that the heater they specified was actually overpowered for our greenhouse—news that should have been caught early on. This oversight led to weeks of back-and-forth exchanges, ending with us exchanging the heater for a more suitable model. This delay has cost my business thousands in lost stock due to inadequate heating."

With 5+ years experience in the industry, Gary is your guy at Chapman's Heating and Cooling! Free estimates, family owned and operated, no corporate overhead, fair pricing, and perfection guaranteed, the first time around. What do you have to lose? Give us a call, let us get this job done together, the first time.

"First, this was an A/C repair, not install, but I can't say enough about this company! 1. I called, and the owner picked up the phone! 2. He listened to my concerns and was able to stop by and evaluate the issues with several hours. 3. He was prompt and accurate in his description of the issue, what parts on under warranty, how long for the parts, and the cost. 4. Knowing this was a rental property, he also advised of things seen and that may need to be addressed and once again confirmed that I really wanted to spend the money to fix the issue. 5. His time from evaluation to repair was less than expected, and once fully disassembled, he found he could perform the fix for less than expected - and he did not try to play games, he advised me of the change and the lower charge. I hire and work with a lot of contractors, repair people, etc. both for my business and my job. I can tell you I am shouting this company's work ethic high and wide. "

Wood Stove Inspection questions, answered by experts

No, a chimney crown is not the same as a chimney cap. A chimney crown is a flat cement area on top of a masonry chimney. It starts where the masonry part of the chimney ends at the very top and domes upward toward the flue opening. A chimney cap sits on top of the crown over the flue. It is usually made of metal and allows smoke to escape without letting in rainwater.

Typically, a home that has a functioning fireplace will be worth more to a buyer than the exact same home without a fireplace. Having a fireplace is a desirable feature among many home buyers. However, if your fireplace is in poor shape or needs extensive repairs at the time you are trying to sell the home, it may end up detracting from the home’s value in the eyes of buyers, making removal an option worth considering.

A 40-pound bag of wood pellets can provide a solid 24 hours or so of burn time, though the exact length may vary. If you’re using your pellet stove as an exclusive heat source during the winter, you’ll need an estimated 100 to 150 of those 40-pound bags, depending on how hot you like to keep your home, its size, the climate, and other factors.

While you have some flexibility in the types of wood you can use in your outdoor furnace, it's important to make wise choices for optimal performance and efficiency. Hardwoods, such as oak, maple, and cherry, are generally recommended for their higher energy content and cleaner burn. These hardwoods produce more heat per volume and tend to produce fewer creosote deposits, which can accumulate and cause a chimney fire, according to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

They provide excellent heat retention and durability and add a classic aesthetic to a home.
