G.A. Bove & Sons, a family owned business, has been serving the heating needs of business and families in the Capital Area since 1930. Through hard work and dedication to the customer we have grown to serve Saratoga, Albany, Rensselaer, Warren, Washington, Fulton, Montgomery, Hamiliton and Schenectady counties.

"Both installers were prompt, professional and did a neat installation. The company said installation would take two days and they were exact. We would highly recommend this company for future services. It is very high quality work."

Heating Oil questions, answered by experts

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. A geothermal heat pump system pulls heat from the ground to help heat your home.

Leaks, poor airflow, reduced efficiency, and loop blockages are common problems requiring service.

It’s a better use of energy (and your money) NOT to run an ERV system all the time. Most experts recommend that you cycle your ERV system on and off throughout the year. However, the recommended advice could change based on your climate, the number of people in your home, the size and style of your home, and your heating and cooling system. Contact a local pro for more specific advice.

Costs depend on system age, type, labor, and whether part replacements are necessary.

You need to service an HVAC system about twice per year, with a service including an inspection and basic maintenance. It’s best to schedule maintenance in the spring (after the furnace has been running and before the AC kicks on) and in the fall (after the AC worked hard all summer and before winter’s first chill arrives). 

Regular HVAC services will keep the system working as efficiently as possible, saving you money on utilities and larger repairs. HVAC maintenance costs around $250 per visit, while bigger repairs from forgotten upkeep could cost thousands.
