"Joe, the AirCo sales representative, was very professional. He actually asked for my feedback on priorities for a new boiler. This was important to me because the boiler sits below our family room, and the noise level of the boiler was as issue. His proposals listed several boiler options, based on heating efficiency, which were competitively priced. The installation was run by Steve, who was able to fit in the installation the next week. Steve, and his crews, were punctual and courteous, and the installation went smoothly. It's only been a week, but I am very pleased with my Bosch boiler, the quality of the work, the price paid, and the timeliness of the installation."

Since 1989, we’ve installed heating and cooling systems in Boston and its surrounding areas, tackling tough problems that our clients face. Our goal is to ensure our clients have energy efficient, quiet, reliable systems so they can live their lives to the fullest both at home and at work. Our dedication to our customers’ needs is what drives us each and every day. Our approach to temperature control and comfort has helped us become one of the most respected names in heating, cooling, and refrigeration in New England
"Before installing a mini-split, the sales person told me that I'd need to cut down an interior shelf to a specific height. I paid a handyman $400 to do exactly what the sales person instructed. Later on, N.E.T.R. came and did the installation; however, AFTER the installation, a technician told me that they hadn't accounted for the vent opening and closing and that the shelf would need to be further cut down. As you can imagine, this type of service is rather ridiculous. If they knew that the shelf would need further cutting, they should have NOT installed the unit. I have called N.E.T.R. six (6) times in three weeks, and no one has called me back about this issue. After paying for the unit and for a handyman, it's ridiculous that I have AC that is compromised because no one with the company thought to properly measure the space so that the work by the handyman could be done once. At this point, I'd like for N.E.T.R. to take care of this for me."

"DO NOT USE 128 PLUMBING We have had a lot of work done on our house since moving in a few years ago and have worked with countless plumbers, contractors, electricians, etc. Everyone does the job a little different but they do what you pay them to do, and generally do it well. 128 Plumbing is the absolute exception. We have had them out 3 times now, and need a 4th but are going to foot the bill with a new plumber just to keep them from messing up anything else. We hired them to replace our water heater, simple enough. It was pricey and they did up sell on some expensive add-ons but nothing beyond what most in the area charge. Day of install, no one shows up in the assigned window. We call after another 2 hours go by and they said they forgot we were on the schedule...? After we insist they need to come as we have no hot water and I took off work, 2 disgruntled guys show up at the end of the day. The two guys that came were completely unaware of the PEX system in our basement. They only know pro-press. Fine, use what you know, but to not even "know of" the other connection types and systems out there? How exactly did they complete apprenticing without learning that? Then they were careless and decided to balance our old heavy water heater on our new vinyl picket fence instead of walking 10 extra feet to use the gate, breaking our fence. They also didn't finish installing the $800 leak shut off valve, and just left it turned off and unplugged - luckily I noticed, plugged it in, and got it setup online. They would rather mess with each other and get out of there, than actually do their job. A few weeks later, the valve triggers, our new tank was leaking. They never checked the water pressure and our main was too high (and had been, this wasn't just a spike). They wanted $90 to even come see what was leaking before we knew about the pressure. Then another $1400 to install an expansion tank and Pressure reducer valve (I totally get paying for this, its a new service/product, but the price is much higher than local quotes so I mention it). I put that on hold to talk to some local plumbers to see what they would charge, and come to learn, they installed the water heater wrong in the first place. The auto-shut off valve is in between our vacuum relief valve and our heater, completely isolating the vacuum relief in the exact situations you need it...a draining or siphoned heater. They want another $90 to come back and "look at it" to decide if they will fix the install they messed up just a few weeks ago. At this point I would rather pay full price to a new plumber to come in and fix their egregious mistakes and make sure my home is properly plumbed."

Running a window air conditioner to cool a small room often costs less than $4 per day, making it cheaper than central air for single-room cooling. However, central air might be more efficient if you're using multiple window units or need to cool a space larger than 1,000 square feet. Choosing the right size AC is crucial—a unit that's too big or small can waste energy and increase costs.
Window AC units can use a significant amount of energy. These units use about 12 to 17 kilowatt-hours per day, significantly more than a refrigerator's one to 1.5 kilowatt-hours per day. To keep your energy costs down, run your window AC only when necessary, keep doors closed to contain the cool air, regularly clean filters and coils, and seal any gaps around the unit to prevent cold air from escaping.
Inexpensive air conditioner units are often not worth it. Low-cost products from popular brands like General Electric, LG, Whirlpool, or Frigidaire may be a reasonable investment. However, putting a small, budget-friendly unit in a large room wastes energy and shortens the life span of the AC since it has to draw more power and work much harder to cool the space. The unit will consume more energy and stress the motor and other internal parts, resulting in early breakdown and costly repairs.
The best deals on window AC units come during the fall when businesses slash prices to clear out old inventory. You can also speak with your local AC installer, who may get you a good deal on a window AC unit since they have access to trade pricing. You can also watch for discontinued products and flash sales in your area.
Window AC repair costs between $110 and $390, with most people paying around $250. Parts cost between $2 and $150, with the rest going toward labor, at around $30 per hour. The occasional one-off repair or a routine AC tuneup cost $75 to $200. Servicing can keep your AC running in good condition for several more years before you need to pay for a replacement unit.
Window AC units last eight to 10 years when installed and maintained correctly. High-quality models last up to 20 years with proper care and routine maintenance. The unit’s longevity depends on its construction quality, regular cleaning, and electrical safety inspections. Keeping the filters and coils clean and addressing minor repairs promptly extends its effective performance and ensures reliable cooling.
