"JDL replaced a defective propane furnace and did an excellent job. The new one is installed better than the original. JDL scheduled an inspection by the county inspector also said they did an excellent job. They were efficient, timely and friendly."

"Company called instantly upon getting Service Magic request for emergency service and tech arrived an hour later. Tech helpful, professional, fast working. Another company previously said I had a faulty gas valve and would have to replace furnace because parts not available for 30+ year old furnace. However, Consumer's Choice tech said valve fine; just cleaned out pilot light and I had heat again at low cost. Also gave estimate on smaller (more suitably sized), more efficient furnace if I did need to replace because heat exchanger is rusting out. Will definitely consider them for future service or install. Very satisfied with this experience."

"When my A/C system went out, my home warranty company (Old Republic) called Modern Mechanical to do the service call.   On the initial call they identified the fan motor was busted, and came back to replace it later that week after ordering the part... but they could not mount it properly because the bottom bracket was rusted out.  At this point I inquired about replacing the whole unit (25 years old, well past its useful lifespan).  While the home warranty wouldn't cover full replacement, Modern Mechanical did give me a complete estimate for a replacement heat pump and air exchanger, including a discount for parts/labor covering the work already done on the old unit.  The estimate was fair and based on the quality of their work done so far I went ahead with it.  They hauled away the old unit, installed the new one, custom-cut the duct work to fit, fully sealed and insulated all joints, ducts and piping, and tested the new unit before signing off on it.  The repair team was prompt and thorough, did a good job with the estimate, equipment recommendation and installation, and I would definitely recommend them for this type of major HVAC installation project."

"Furnace was not operating because the company's automatic delivery system ran me out of oil.
Technician showed up promptly and got the furnace operating but could not get heat into the house. Had to reschedule to have zone valves replaced. Technician show up late and didn't have the required parts. Had to reschedule again.
The third technician showed up on time with all the correct parts and worked most of the day to get the system operating properly.
He was completely knowledgeable and very conciencious that everything was working correctly.

"Great -- they call to set up the appointment, talk to me to choose a good time for both of us, call to say they're on their way.
Very thorough, they answer all our questions regarding our furnace, AC, humidifier, everything.  We had them install the whole thing for us back in 2007.

"I have been a Dwyer customer for decades and have found them to be consistently responsive, thorough, prompt and polite. They installed a new heat pump in 2007, have serviced it since then, including last week when a battery problem cut off the AC. They offered same -day service. Their repair person, Cosmo, who has helped me out before, did his customary, detailed job and fixed the problem. They are an old-fashioned company in the best sense of the word quality."

"I closed the deal with Julian on late Tuesday night and the team was able to do the installation the next morning! Jesse gave me the details on the team as the ink was drying. They arrived on time first thing in the morning. Dan, Cal and Greg were a great team that stayed active all day. Seriously over 12 hours! They installed a new Hot water heater and an 18 Seer Lennox Heat Pump with Honeywell Humidifier and Honeywell Home Thermostats. My 17 year old system was tightly packed into the basement. I think the basement was built around it. They replaced everything...ducts, hoses, fuses boxes, wires and pipes. Everything was insulated and finally brought to code with new sensors and alarms. After working all day, they ended the evening cleaning up and taking me through the system in great detail. It has only been a couple hours but everything is running great. I talked to several vendors when making my choice. I liked several of them and they dealt with my silly process. Julian was very thorough with his pitch. He told me about the factors that differentiates them from the others. I believe I made a great choice. Merry Christmas!"

Install Boiler questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on issue severity, parts needed, and labor rates.

There are several types of home radiators, and the most common are steam heat radiators, electric radiators, and dual-fuel radiators. Steam heat radiators are connected to a boiler. Electric radiators can operate without being connected to anything else—they just need an electrical outlet. If you have a dual-fuel radiator, you’ll see a valve at the bottom of the system with a wire coming out of it and going into a wall. These are often your towel radiators in the bathroom. The type of radiator you have will impact how you turn it on.

While you’ll pay more upfront for a brand-new HVAC unit, you can save money in the long run. Here’s how to save on your new HVAC system:

  • When purchasing a high-efficiency system, your energy bills will be lower in the future.

  • You may be eligible for special offers from your local energy company.

  • Depending on the system, you may be eligible for HVAC rebates and tax credits.

  • Choose to replace your air conditioning unit and furnace simultaneously to save on labor and installation costs. 

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.

Using heating oil to heat your home has its advantages, but it also has its disadvantages. 

Consider these drawbacks before installing a heating oil system:

  • Heating oil prices fluctuate frequently

  • Risk of oil spills or leaks

  • Produces more air pollution and soot compared to a gas furnace

  • Regular maintenance required for equipment

  • Need to reorder heating oil consistently to avoid running out
