Types of Heating Systems We Service 

Furnaces:

• Description: Furnaces are a common choice for home heating, using gas, oil, or electricity to heat air, which is then distributed through ducts. 

• Our Services: We offer comprehensive furnace services, from installing new units and repairing common issues like pilot light problems or uneven heating to performing maintenance for optimal efficiency. 

Boilers:

• Description: Boilers heat water to produce steam or hot water, which circulates through pipes to radiators or underfloor heating systems. 

• Our Services: We handle new boiler installations, repairs for leaks or pressure issues, and regular maintenance to keep your system running smoothly. 

Heat Pumps:

• Description: Heat pumps transfer heat between your home and the outside environment, serving as both heaters and air conditioners. 

• Our Services: We specialize in installing new heat pumps, repairing issues such as refrigerant leaks or compressor failures, and maintaining the system for efficient year-round operation. 

Radiant Floor Heating:

• Description: This system warms your home from the floor up using electric or hydronic (water-based) heating elements embedded in the flooring. 

• Our Services: We install and repair radiant floor heating systems, ensuring even heat distribution and addressing any issues with the heating elements or controls. 

Baseboard Heaters:

• Description: Baseboard heaters provide localized heating through electric or hydronic units installed along the baseboards of a room.

Installation and Repair Processes 

Installation: 

• Assessment: We start with an assessment of your home’s heating needs, considering factors like size, insulation, and existing systems. 

• Selection: Based on the assessment, we help you choose the most suitable heating system for your home. 

• Professional Installation: Our skilled technicians handle the entire installation, ensuring everything is set up according to industry standards and manufacturer guidelines. 

Repair: 

• Diagnosis: When a heating issue arises, we perform a thorough diagnosis to pinpoint the problem, whether it’s a faulty thermostat, a broken component, or a system-wide issue. 

• Repairs: We efficiently and effectively carry out repairs using high-quality parts, restoring your heating system to optimal functionality. 

• Post-Repair Check: After repairs, we conduct a comprehensive check to confirm that the system is operating correctly and that no other issues are present. 

Maintenance Tips and Benefits 

Tips: 

1. Regular Filter Replacement: Replace air filters every 1-3 months to maintain proper airflow and efficiency. Dirty filters can cause your system to work harder, increasing energy bills and risk of breakdowns. 
2. Annual Inspections: Schedule an annual professional inspection to detect potential issues and ensure your system is running efficiently. This can prevent unexpected breakdowns and extend your heating system’s lifespan. 
3. Clean Vents and Ducts: Keep vents and ducts clean to ensure proper airflow. Blocked or dirty vents can reduce efficiency and lead to uneven heating. 
4. Check Thermostat Settings: Regularly check and adjust thermostat settings to ensure they accurately reflect your heating needs. 
5. Insulate Your Home: Proper insulation helps retain heat and improve heating system efficiency. Ensure your home is well-insulated to reduce the strain on your heating system. 

Benefits: 

• Increased Efficiency: Regular maintenance keeps your heating system operating at peak efficiency, lowering energy consumption and utility bills. 

• Extended Lifespan: Proper care and timely repairs extend the lifespan of your heating system, offering long-term reliability. 

• Enhanced Comfort: Well-maintained systems provide consistent, even heating, improving overall home comfort. 

• Reduced Repair Costs: Routine maintenance helps identify and address potential issues early, reducing the likelihood of costly emergency repairs.
