"Very professional personnel arrived on time and worked throughout the day. They explained each step and answered all our questions Bob was very knowledgeable An electrician was also on the site to complement the install and permits were pulled. Very smooth day"
"Crew was very prompt and professional. Took care to put booties on whenever entering the house and courteous of your needs. Very nice, professional installation and site picked up and cleaned after completion. Thorough walk through and explained any questions don’t hesrtate to call and they will be more than happy to come back out and help."
"I'd been wanting to get of our old electric baseboard heaters for a long time, and replace it with something more efficient, and Mark helped my understand the differences between a ductless mini-split system and a ducted heatpump system. Even in our small house, the ducted system was the way to go. Mark and his installers were professional and efficient, and answered all my questions. When the thermostat was acting a little odd, he sent a technician over to calibrate it, free of charge. There was a small issue where I initially got the wrong specs for the electrical, and as a result I had the electrician install unnecessary circuits, but Marc reimbursed me for the cost."
"Great. I wanted to replace my oil furnace with a system that does both heating and cooling. They came by, did measurements, and presented some options. I chose the Mitsubishi mini split system because I have a large house and don't need to heat or cool all of it all the time. They installed in a day. Very easy, very boring, I also had them replace the water heater."
"Jane's replaced my 20-year old Munchkin boiler with a super efficient, modern Rinnai. Everyone was a joy to deal with. Service was excellent. Darian, who scheduled and arranged the replacement, and Greg and Oscar (who did the work) were fantastic. Excellent service, especially since I live on Lopez Island, which is not easy to get to. Competent, good-natured, hard-working, nice folks."
"Jose Ruiz was very professional explained every step of the process. As someone who knows nothing about plumbing he walked me through all the details. Thank you Jose for coming out to my home within 2 hours on a Friday evening. A job well done at a reasonable price. You Rock!!!"
"Blue Flame's team did a great job from the initial consultative assessment, bid and installation. Bid was competitive and fair. The entire team was service oriented and responsive. Installation was quick - two crews sent to enable one day install, complete and left clean and orderly. A+"
"This company made the process of getting a heat pump (new installation) very easy for us. They were fast on coming out for the initial bid (Brandon is great!) and they were super fast on the installation. Lorin and his crew were delightful and did an excellent job! There price for everything was way better than any other quote we received and they were very conscientious about how they made everything look. We are very satisfied with every aspect of this project and highly recommend them! I would definitely hire them again!"
"Daniel is a dedicated contractor who cares about his customer and the quality of his work. The insulation work went very well, but not every project goes smoothly. There was an issue with a crack to the ceiling drywall, which was corrected within 24 hours. The attic work dislodged some previously improperly installed wiring, and while the cause was not Daniel's, he took ownership of the situation and saw that the problems were corrected quickly and to my satisfaction.

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.
DIY is not recommended due to safety risks and technical expertise required. Hire licensed professionals.
If you hear your radiator clanking even when it’s turned off, it’s typically because there’s trapped water or air in the system, causing a pressure buildup. When you hear significant clanking, popping, crackling, or banging in a radiator that’s turned off, you’ll want to bleed the pipes or call in an HVAC specialist to deal with the problem (and prevent it from happening in the future).
