"Called EF Martin for annual furnace maintenance service. Had no problems getting someone on the phone to schedule the appointment. The attendant was very pleasant and efficient. I was scheduled for 2 - 4pm appointment. The technician arrived at 2pm, which was great. Dennis was very thorough and explained everything to me clearly. I highly recommend this company!"

"The guys worked tirelessly to complete it all. My new heat pump and my sisters' were installed in a very timely manner with a big enough crew to accomplish it all promptly, and so far are working fine. Vaughn and Lucas came to my house from my mom's to install the capacitor on a Friday afternoon when I'm sure they wanted to get done early. Everything is going well at present, though my mother will need a new coil which is in process, but her air is working and the guys said they would return if anything else was needed. They all went above and beyond, helping me to seal up cracks and crevices and to put new screen wire over the vents due to the snakes, which I had started doing myself. They were courteous, respectful and informative, and stayed till the job was done! Thanks to Rhonda and Brandy at the phones, and to Jason and Andy as well!"

"The contractor performed an outstanding installation. The first visit, he assessed the work to perform, then walk me through the process he would perform. He offered various units to accommodate my requirement before I decided on the best option. On the day of the installation, he arrived on time, took the necessary safety precautions, did the installation and then walk me through the process of what he performed and showed me the operations. His quality of work (A+) and the cost (A+) met our expectations."

Install Boiler FAQs, answered by experts

Generally, an oil furnace is considered safer than a gas furnace for several reasons. While both types of furnaces can produce carbon monoxide, a leak in an oil furnace is easier to detect due to the smell. Oil furnaces also don't connect to a gas pipeline, which reduces the chance of a fuel leak. Most importantly, heating oil is not combustible, whereas natural gas is highly flammable. This means there is a much lower risk of combustion or explosion with an oil furnace. However, an oil furnace can still pose a fire hazard if it tips over.

Since your boiler keeps you warm and provides hot water to your home, you’re likely to notice issues with heating in your living space right away. The most obvious sign that your boiler is breaking is not getting any heat or hot water. You might also hear some odd sounds coming from your boiler during operation, the flame in your gas boiler is not blue, the pressure is inconsistent, or your boiler is using more energy than it should. If you notice any of these signs, be sure to call a pro right away.

A furnace is a big unit where gas, heating oil, or electricity heats the air. The warmed air is then pushed back out through ducts and vents. 

A boiler uses electricity, heating oil, or gas to heat water that is pushed into the room through a radiator. This is one of the oldest and most effective ways to heat a house, but radiators can also be unsightly and leave hot and cold spots in the room.

Heat pumps use a refrigerant to move heat from outside into the house and return it to the room through ducts and vents.

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.

Using heating oil to heat your home has its advantages, but it also has its disadvantages. 

Consider these drawbacks before installing a heating oil system:

  • Heating oil prices fluctuate frequently

  • Risk of oil spills or leaks

  • Produces more air pollution and soot compared to a gas furnace

  • Regular maintenance required for equipment

  • Need to reorder heating oil consistently to avoid running out
