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.

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

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.

The most obvious downside is the high upfront cost of buying and installing one of these systems. Additionally, sometimes the system can take a longer time to heat than alternatives like a boiler. Also, if something goes wrong with the geothermal pump, repairs are often significantly more expensive than repairing traditional, above-ground heat pumps.

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.

Most HVAC companies charge a flat service call fee of between $75 and $150, which includes traveling to your home and inspecting your system to find the underlying problem. Keep in mind that these prices only include diagnostics and the actual repairs will usually be billed separately. If you’re calling for routine service, the service call will be included in your inspection and tune-up, with the total sitting around $150. Your prices could be a little higher if you have a very large home with multiple condensers and air handlers, as inspections and servicing take longer.

Geothermal systems provide energy efficiency, lower utility bills, and long-term sustainability with minimal environmental impact.
