"Our 30 year old Trane furnace went out over Christmas and needed replacement. Ted responded immediately and was able to schedule the install the very next day. He took the time to explain all options and also had the best pricing on quality equipment. His team was very professional and took care of our home during the install. I highly recommend Ted Cook Heating."

"He was a little early, which was good, because we had no heat. We thought it might be the fuse, He checked, and it did need to be replaced. The heat still didn't work. A thermostat we installed was the same as the previous model (installed by another company). He took a long time to explain to us that the model we had wasn't the right one for our system and why. He is the first contractor to explain how our system is different. He replaced the thermostat with a different model. The price for the service call with the Angie's list discount was good. We could have purchased a new thermostat for less, but he told us that, and we went ahead since he was here, honest, and so informative. I will definitely call them again."

"I sent a message through Angies List and they responded almost immediately. I was called and given a 30 minute window of their arrival, plus the technician's name. Then the technician called me when he was on his way. He talked to me then went to work and immediately diagnosed the issue (chipmunk chewed the wiring argh!). He gave me a quote which I felt was quite reasonable and the repair only took about 45 minutes. After that, we spoke further about the Hvac (it's pretty old), he said it seems to be running well but obviously has some age to it. He advised I don't need it replaced but may want to consider some ongoing maintenance. He was nice and professional and answered all of my dumb questions. I would definitely call them again.

"It was excellent. It was great. They did that carbon monoxide detector for free. They were very good. They were right on time. They were very professional. We never asked for a carbon monoxide detector but it was nice of them of to give it to us and install it for us. They were professional. Pricing was right. They did good work. I would definitely recommend them. Pricing was average. I would absolutely use them in the future."

"My downstair's airconditioning unit stopped worked.  I called another company that I had used before.  They took several days to come to the house.  They inspected the system and said I needed a new evaporator coil for the unit.  He also said my unit was 3 pounds low on freon, which he could replace at  $89 per pound.  But he said I would lose it when they replaced the coil since it couldn't be saved.  I thought I needed another opinion so I told him I would think about it and let him know.  In the meantime he called his office to ask them to give me an estimate on the cost of the coil.  I then called Tuck & Howell.  The tech came out that same afternoon.  He checked the whole system and agreed the problem was the evaporator coil.  He gave me a couple of options but I decided to go ahead and replace it.  He called his office for an estimate, which I got within the hour.  I arranged for him to install the unit two days later, which he did. He also checked the freon and said it was about 2 pounds low, which he could replace at $39 for the first pound and $15 a pound therafter (opposed to $89 per pound the other company charged).  He said he could save it when he replaced the evaporator coil so it wouldn't be wasted.  That allowed me to restart the airconditioning unit that same day to cool down my house that day.    He was on time for the appointment, had everything he needed with him, completed the job efficiently, professionally and quickly.  Once the unit was installed he cleaned up after himself and took away the mess.  The unit is working fine.  I have no complaints.  About two weeks later, the first company called be back with an estimate which was $200 more than Tuck & Howell had charged.  I told them to forget it.  I had used them several times before but will not again.  I highly recommend Tuck & Howell."

"The company called 15 min. before scheduled appointment. The plumbers showed up on time, well-dressed in company shirts, wore protective footwear upon entering home. They were courteous and professional, listened to what I needed done which was to have a brand new, in-the-box dishwasher installed and the old washer taken away. They said, "Great!". They went out to the truck to prepare my estimate because payment is expected at time of service. They returned and presented an estimate of $506.00 to install the dishwasher. I asked about the high price and was told this was a "flat fee" and couldn't be changed. I paid the dispatch fee, and said good-bye.

"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!"

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

It can take anywhere from four hours to three days to replace a boiler with a new one. How long your particular boiler installation takes will depend on whether you need a gas line installed and if you’re switching to a new boiler system. 

Replacing a combination boiler or standard boiler with the same system should only take four to six hours. Meanwhile, switching from a conventional boiler system to a combination boiler system could take a few days.

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.

To figure out if your boiler is worth repairing or if you need to replace your boiler, first figure out how old the unit is. Boilers last 15 to 20 years, so if your unit is 15 years old or older, it may be better to replace the entire thing depending on the severity of the problems. If it’s not quite that old, then it’s probably worth repairing. Another thing to consider is whether your warranty covers any of the repair costs. If so, it may be worthwhile to repair your boiler to keep it running.

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.

No, boilers and water heaters are not interchangeable because they serve different primary functions. Boilers are used for central heating systems, providing hot water or steam to heat your home. In contrast, a water heater's purpose is to supply hot water for daily household use, such as for faucets and showers. A water heater alone cannot supply the warm water or steam needed for a central heating system.

While they are not interchangeable, it is common to have both a boiler and a water heater. In fact, a conventional boiler often works best when a water heater system is already in place. The two systems can be combined to provide both heating and hot water, either by pairing a boiler with an indirect water heater or by installing a premade combination boiler-water heater unit. For home heating, some homeowners may also opt for a furnace instead of a boiler.
