Shon helped us out with a door replacement, and a bit of plumbing work by the hot water heater area. He did a good job and would definitely use him again as one of our regular vendors in the southern area of DFW. Thank you, sir.

They're really nice and professional. They're very service-oriented. Once I had to wait about 45 minutes to get my oil changed so they took $10 off the cost just because I had to wait so long. I like them a lot. They seemed to last really well.

I like them and have used them in the past as well. They've done excellent work and are very detailed in their checks for the heating and A/C units. I always go with them and ask questions, which they are very good about explaining everything to me.

Checked the electric plug, then that all the elements were getting power, working his way methodically through the heating system of the dryer, eliminating as he went. Great top down approach. Found the monitor and replaced. All is now working.

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

HVAC systems usually last between 10 and 30 years, with most having a lifespan of around 20 years. Factors that impact a unit’s life expectancy include which brand you choose, how often you use it, and how well you maintain it. To make sure yours lasts as long as possible, make sure to keep it clean and schedule an annual service with an HVAC technician.

There are several common types of HVAC systems that you may have, including split systems, hybrid HVAC, duct-free systems, packaged heating and air, geothermal heating, or even portable units for heating or cooling. If you aren’t sure which type is in your home or are looking to install something different, you should consult an HVAC pro to determine which option is right for your heating and cooling needs.

If a geothermal heat pump is installed correctly, then you shouldn’t have to worry about having a backup heat source such as a furnace or oil boiler. However, there are geothermal systems installed that include a backup in case the heat pump fails due to extreme cold. This is simply a backup heat pump you’ll likely never need and not an alternative heat source.

Your HVAC manufacturer will give you instructions on how often you should service your system. Have your unit professionally serviced at least once a year when in doubt.

Heat pump systems are different because they provide heating and cooling solutions for your home. In this case, you should have it serviced at least twice a year.

Service costs range from $200 to $1,500, depending on maintenance needs, system age, and labor.
