Get matched with top furnace / forced air heating system install or replace pros in Boylston, MA

"Great. Technician John Gulstrom. He was able to replace part and check system quickly. Went very well."

"He was timely, professional and responsive. He clearly knows the technical aspects of the trade and provided us with a lot of information about the equipment he would be installing and how it would work with our existing ductwork.  We did not care for his sales approach because he tried to sell us on things we did not ask for and did not need.  He tried to sell us on a humidifier for the system which we really don't need because we live right by the ocean where it is quite humid year round, even in the winter. Adding humidity to our house could cause problems with mildew or mold.   He also tried to sell us on replacing our hot water tank for a more efficient model even though ours is only 5 years old.  We got the feeling that he was trying to pack as much sales onto the heat loan program without really thinking about the customer's specific situation, and that put off me and my husband from wanting to work with him.  At the end of his sales presentation he decided on the spot he would give us an unspecified discount.  We did not like this high pressure sales tactic.  We had not received other quotes yet so we declined to decide on the spot.  He emailed us a couple days later offering a 10% discount if we decided by a certain date a couple days later.  We decided to wait beyond that date so we could get more bids.
Joe's quote was $2000 higher than a quote from another installer who has equally good reviews on Angies list.  Both quotes were to install the same equipment, however the second installer included the cost of converting two unused ducts into returns and installing a pass though in a ceiling to help balance our system.  I shared this information with Joe, and he responded by saying he would beat their price by $100.  It goes to show that it pays to shop around. 
As Airco's good reviews on Angies list attest and my interactions with him, I am sure they would do quality work, but my husband and I were totally put off by his sales and pricing approach and did not want to work with the company as a result.

"NV Heating and Air Conditioning installed a Bosch heat pump in my home and removed the previous oil furnace. They did an excellent job throughout the entire process, including recommending the right heat pump for my home, providing clear guidance, assisting with the Mass Save rebate, and offering a very reasonable project cost. They were always available to answer questions, and the installation was seamless and efficiently completed. The Bosch heat pump has been running perfectly for the past two and a half months. I would highly recommend NV Heating and Air Conditioning for similar projects."

"Gas furnace hot water heat needed more output. They replaced a few parts and it is working great. . very responsive and Robert is as knowledgeable as they come ."

"I had a great experience. Technician was able to diagnose and fix the issue. He also answered all my queries for a possible HVAC replacement for a heat pump. I would highly recommend."

"After initial installation , system failures required replacing defective heat pump."

"Really terrific work and attention to detail. Derek and his crew are obviously super knowledgeable and professional and did not in any way try to oversell or up-sell us (Derek even told me how to clean the condenser unit in the springtime myself). The install (of a combined propane furnace and central A/C) took place just days after I first spoke with Derek, and involved minimal downtime while the old system was swapped out for the new one. I would recommend DG without reservation to friends and family (and strangers)!"

"I ended up losing heat due to a low water switch. I never had a gas furnace. They talked me thru on how to fill the system and did not charge me"

"First off, the consult was great. I was able to add services to my initial request and received a deal doing so. I also added a second set of services later that month. Adam and Steve completed the work and were completely professional and super efficient. They answered my questions and made sure I understood the work being performed. They worked with my schedule and were fantastic. I had a gas hook-up for a change from electric stove to gas stove - they even took care of the permits and inspection. They removed an old water access point for the fridge's icemaker that was in an awkward spot. They also added a regulator for the water pressure and water filtration system. Fantastic work all around. Should we need any more plumbing/gas work, I would definitely hire them again."

"Believing that furnace and central air conditioning systems have to be replaced, I asked Nick for an estimate. When he arrived, he diagnosed the problem and fixed it. He saved me a large amount of money. Easy to talk to, explained the issues in understandable terms. He came the same day I called. But if I have another problem, I would not mind waiting because I am confident he will do the job."
