"After listening to my needs and concerns Alex designed me a perfect TRANE system to ensure my home stayed cool and comfortable. The install team was professional and courteous. They made sure to listen and comply with any special concerns I had (I'm kind of OCD) before they started any work. The install was done in a timely manner and they ensured that they cleaned up everything before they left. Before deciding on Total, I had talked to other companies and received other quotes. In conjunction with all the "extras" Total does standard (like drawing a permit), Alex delivered me a better system, for the money, than anyone else by far. It is hard to be excited about spending this much money on an AC system but when it hit the hottest day of the year (thus far) and my upstairs was still sitting at a cool 71, I was smiling from ear to ear. I highly recommend this company."

"They quoted a fair price, arrived well within the time frame they said they would (it was same-day service), and were courteous, professional, and thorough.  I would not hesitate to use them again, or recommend.

**Update from yesterday**  Bit of serendipity--I found my receipt from the previous water heater installation in 1996.  Davis had done that one as well.  They did a great job then, and they did this time as well.  Wish I'd found it to show Sean--he said our place looked familiar."

"My heat pump had gone on the fritz just before I went out of town on May 20th. As soon as I returned on the 23rd I went about contacting contracting to get prices. I met with Lee, from ARS, on the 24th and agreed to a deal for a Carrier purchased through Home Depot. The installation was started and completed on 5/29. Great to have cool air again and lower electric bills. Would definitely use again but I suspect this unit may outlast me."

"They are the best!! Jeremy was tasked to reinstall plumbing for a bath tub. My previous contractor totally messed up the install causing a bad leak. Although it took a while, Jeremy was not to be outdone. He found and diagnosed the problem caused by the previous contractor and persevered on until it was correctly remedied to his satisfaction!! I really admired his patience and dedication. Thanks again, Jeremy!!!"

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

Coolant and antifreeze are technically not the same thing. The difference between the two is the ratio of water to other chemicals. True antifreeze is mainly made up of either ethylene glycol or propylene glycol, while coolant comprises one part antifreeze and one part water. However, the terms coolant and antifreeze are often used interchangeably, even by pros.

If your boiler is 20 years old, it’s time to get a new one. Although it may seem to be working fine, it’s likely eating up more fuel than it should. Also, compared to a brand-new boiler, one that’s 20 years old is probably not working as well. When you get your new unit, you’ll notice that your home is heating more quickly, and the heat is consistent throughout all the rooms.

Most propane boilers last 15 to 20 years with regular maintenance and proper care. The lifespan depends on the quality of the unit, proper installation, and the level of maintenance. Investing in annual service can maximize longevity and efficiency. Routine inspections and timely repairs prevent early breakdown, ensuring your boiler heats your home for years to come.

Warmed or cooled air can escape your home through drafty windows and doors. If you notice any gaps, be sure to caulk and seal them. You can also hire a local pro for an energy audit to get a list of energy-saving recommendations. 

Finally, check your insulation. It can settle in over time and become less effective. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) estimates that you can save an average of 15% on heating and cooling costs (or 11% of total energy costs) by sealing leaks and making sure attics, crawl spaces, and basements have a nice layer of insulation.

The cost-efficiency of baseboard heaters depends on the type and how you use them. Generally, standard electric baseboard heaters can be expensive to run because they use electric resistance heating, which is less energy-efficient than systems like forced-air or heat pumps. However, hydronic and gas versions are typically much cheaper to operate. Hydronic models are more energy-efficient because they heat a liquid that retains warmth longer, preventing the thermostat from turning on and off as often. The overall running cost is also influenced by local electricity rates, your home's insulation, and your usage habits. To increase efficiency, you can use baseboard heaters for zoning, meaning you only heat the specific rooms you are using.
