"Jose was out Monday to perform annual maintenance. His attention to detail was amazing. I never saw such a complete maintenance job. As you know he was out before consulting on our need for a 3rd return. we discussed it again and he recommended to add it to the 2nd floor rather the first as we originally thought. He gave us an estimate and was able to do it immediately. I was incredibly impressed at how he worked so careful and considerate. Again his attention to detail and craftsmanship would make most finish carpenters jealous. In the end we had a new return on the 2nd floor. When the system runs now it run 12 db quieter overall (he even was able to turn the fan from medium to high) and when I turn the thermostat from 65 to 70 it takes the ambient room temperature to 70 in 5 minutes versus 20 minutes with 2 returns. I know when A/C season starts we will see even more improvement. I've used Boston Standard for a few projects in my home now including a mini-split ductless system for my office space, a tankless water heater and a whole house humidifer. Their advice and installation on all of these was flawless! Definitely check this out"

"George and his team were extremely friendly and professional. This is a good group of people. Courteous and thoughtful, they were able to do a complete installation of both systems from scratch in about 6 hours.
The new radon remediation system (Bubble Up) has the added benefit of boosting the fixture pressure in the house to city level or better (60-75psi) as well as completely resolving the pH level of the water.
The cost was slightly lower than the other two quotes we received, partially due to the fact that Absolute offered a "multi-system" discount since two systems were going in at the same time.
If in your service area, I would highly recommend George Doumit of Absolute Water System.
