Gary was excellent to work with. He made the process of removing old oil from an underground, leaking oil tank easy. Everything was handled in a timely manner. I highly recommend Gary and the team at Certified Environmental Drilling.

I really like them. I've been using them for about three years. They were responsive when I went in. One time I went in for an oil change and they told me I didn't need it because my oil was still clean. I appreciated that because sometimes people will do it anyway just to get the money.

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

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.

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

Regular inspections, loop flushing, and checking heat exchangers help extend system lifespan.

You can expect a geothermal system to last for years. According to the Department of Energy, the underground infrastructure for the heat pumps lasts about 25 to 50 years, which includes the pipes buried in the soil. The actual heat pump itself has a life span of around 25 years.

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.
