They are good. I was impressed with how good the service was. I like that when I go in for a simple oil change, they check other things as well and alert me if I am going to need further service in the future. Their prices are fair.

Dropped off our Mercury. Let the manager, Tony, know what needed attention (several things, a blown fuse, service with oil change, fix flat on spare tire, inspection sticker). Tony called when the SUV was ready. Pay him and picked it up.

There had been heavy rain & flooding in the city. Our sewer backed up and ruined most items in the basement. We contacted them and they installed a new water heater in a few days. We had contacted another plumbing company, but they were unable to replace the water heater for several weeks.

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 three main types of heat pumps. An air-source heat pump system is the most common and has two parts—an indoor air handler unit and an outdoor heat pump unit. A ductless heat pump system functions similarly to an air-source heat pump system but doesn’t need ductwork to distribute the air.
