"I’m extremely satisfied with Regional. We had three sump pumps that needed to be replaced (primary, secondary, and water powered backup). The quote was very reasonable, and they were able to do the work shortly after their initial visit. They replaced everything with Liberty pumps. Justin and Erich did the work and they were very professional. We had them quote out a couple of other items (replacing water heater, etc) and those quotes were also very reasonable. I will definitely hire them for future jobs."

We are a Heating & Air conditioning company that specialize in heating & air conditioning installation and repairs.
"The technician was very professional and respectful of my home by removing and/or covering his shoes as needed. He kept me informed about his progress and issues he found as he continued his work. The furnace is very old, so he conducted research, determined the problem, got the needed parts and completed the job for a reasonable cost. I would definitely use his services again. 5 stars!"

"I Needed to setup a drill press in my basement. I recently had back surgery and wasn't able to do it myself. So I went online to Angie aka Angie's List. Bowen Construction reached out immediately and offered a great price. So it was a no Brainer to choose Bowen Construction. When Rick Bowen showed up, he easily assembled drill press and made adjustments to get it running smoothly. Thanks to Rick’s attention to detail, right before leaving he was studying the picture he took of drill press and noticed that it wasn't level. So he came back and fixed it. I love my new drill press. I would recommend Bowen Construction to anyone who needs a handyman. Thank you."

"He was supposed to start on November 9 called off and did show up on November 10 to install the thermostat that I provided. He worked on it for couple hours and then told me that the thermostat was faulty. He told me to return it and he would buy one and return the next day. After he left, I noticed one of the prongs were bent and I straightened it out and the thermostat worked and the heater kicked on. He still maintained that it was faulty, so I did return it and he came back with one exactly like it the next day. I reimbursed him for that. Again, he worked on it for a couple hours and the same issue that we’ve had from the beginning of the fan not turning off remained. He told me that there is no way it’s wired wrong so it has to be in the unit asked for payment which I gave him $125 in cash. I might add that he used my tools which I found quite odd. I ended up having to call out another contractor because he told me it had to be the unit. Cliffs informed me that there was absolutely nothing wrong with the unit and he even referred to it as “Cherry“ He checked everything out and then asked me about the thermostat and I said it was brand new and installed through Angi. He took the cover off and in a split second said I see exactly what the problem is. It’s c wired wrong. (THIS WOULD MEAN THL WIRED IT WRONG TWICE) He pointed out the green wire should not be connected at all. That is what is making the fan run continuously. He disconnected the wire and it worked perfectly. This cost me $218.00 for the service call/tune up."

"My old kitchen faucet was leaking and bought replacement faucet at a big box hardware awhile back and looking for a pro to install. Made arrangements with another company that offered coupon via Angi but was not provided up front pricing on the install, just the cost of visit. When the pro arrived, they sized me up and asked $500 for the install after getting the foot in the door. I declined and he contacted his dispatcher and lowered the amount somewhat but I still declined and indicated I'll just pay for the visit. The pro knew I wasn't down with their pricing game and was straight up and waived the fee for visit. Then made arrangement with a different big box hardware that offers installation with independent contractors with up front pricing and purchased a better kitchen faucet. Was supposed to get a call from the contractor shortly prior to appointment but never got a call nor did they respond to email and my call to them. Once the contractor was revealed to me after scheduling the installation, I did an online search and the review suggested this pro was known for not following up on calls or appointments. After the scheduled date and time passed and a no show, I rescheduled for another installer with the big box but then contacted BRH just in case. They offered to do the job for half the cost of the big box contractor and I scheduled the install with BRH, then cancelled with the big box. Keri from BRH showed up promptly at the scheduled time and was in and out in less than an hour. My new kitchen faucet runs fine and no more leak."

Heat pumps rely on evaporation and condensation processes. The unit transfers heat through the system via a compressed refrigerant. The compressor within the pump circulates the refrigerant through two coils. The first coil evaporates the refrigerant and absorbs warmth from the air. The refrigerant then passes to the second coil, where it condenses, and the unit releases the absorbed heat.
A well-installed and well-maintained heat pump lasts an average of 12 to 20 years. Routine filter changes, annual tune‑ups, and prompt repairs help the equipment reach the upper end of that range, while skipped maintenance or poor installation can shorten its life and raise long‑term costs. Ask your heat pump installation pro for maintenance recommendations so you can get the maximum benefit from your unit.
Heat pumps are most effective in regions where winter lows remain above approximately 40°F. Efficiency starts to drop below that point and falls off sharply near 25°F. If you live in a colder area, look for a model with a high Heating Seasonal Performance Factor (HSPF) and plan on supplemental heat during deep freezes to keep energy use in check.
The biggest drawbacks are the upfront cost and poor cold-weather performance. Installation can require electrical upgrades or duct changes, and once temperatures fall well below freezing, the unit may need help from a furnace or electric resistance coils. Factor in those add‑ons, along with routine maintenance, when you weigh the long‑term savings against the initial investment.
