"I have been with Climatemakers of Virginia no for several years and have NEVER been disappointed. An employee there Garry Gappy is our tech and goes above and beyond in his work. On so many occasions he could have told me things that needed fixed (that would cost extra) and I would have gladly paid it. But, he has always been perfectly honest and has saved us so much money. Last year I recommended him to a friend (for their Mother) and the friend arranged an appointment with him. He was able to help their A/C get working fast. I am very proud of this business and will stay with them for HVAC as long as I own a house! -Mark"

"We met Tim the owner at the Homeowner show at the Convention Center. Surprised at how personable he was. Cynthia, who handles customer service was very amiable and eager to help. Ryan, the service representative came out and gave us an estimate of a new HVAC system, since ours had died at the colder time this year.we accepted the bid and Ryan came out started the prep work. System was installed in one day. Ryan came out the next day to check everything. We concluded our business and we have wonderful heat. I cannot sing their praises enough. I would recommend them to anyone."

"I have a Heat Pump system that was installed by another company that is still under warranty with that company. That company sent a technician out to diagnose the system. He told me he was unable to diagnose the system because the breaker kept tripping and that he thought I might have a bad breaker, and estimated the replacement at $369. The following day, there was no follow up. No one returned, and after a full day of repeated calls by me and my wife I could not get an update on the status. I’m describing this to let you know how dire my situation was BEFORE I called Absolute Comfort; 2 days without A/C on very hot days and unable to get help from the company I’ve been doing business with for nearly 10 years. I called Absolute Comfort at 3:30 PM. They sent a Technician (Chris), who arrived less than 2.5 hours later. He reattached the wires (disconnected by the other company's technician), and reset the HVAC. The system has been running perfect. The service call fee was a little higher than I’m used to, but well worth it. I will definitely use Absolute Comfort again and recommend them to others. Chris was awesome. I wish I could remember who I spoke to on the phone, because she was extremely helpful as well. I sincerely apologize to her for not remembering her name."

"Sweetland's sent Andre out right away and he got down to business promptly. He identified the problem and fixed the unit within an hour. Sweetland Heating and Cooling has been punctual, reliable, and affordable. I have utmost confidence in them, have used them several times and they will be the first people I call when my systems need repair or replacement. They take the time to do it right and explain what is going on."

"I have been planning to replace my HVAC system for a while. It was 19+ years old and I had spent close to $1000 over the past few years applying "bandaid" fixes to keep it operational. Smiley's HVAC had done work for both my brother and my Parents and they were both pleased. I had called Smiley's and 2 other HVAC companies to come give me replacement estimates about 18 months ago. They ranged in price from $6000 to $15000. I finally decided to bite the bullet and get the work done. While Smiley's was not the cheapest estimate, based on the reviews here and on Angies List, and my families experiences, I decided to go with Smiley's. I called on Tuesday 12/18/2018 and was Helped by a very cordial young lady on the phone. She told me Larry wasn't in the office but he would call me back as soon as he picked up his messages. Twenty minutes later Larry called and we set up an appointment for him to come back and give me a new estimate on a replacement system on Wed 12/19. This estimate was very slightly higher than the one from 18 months prior but I expected that. Larry showed up promptly and did a thorough evaluation of my existing system. He was extremely knowledgable and helpful in his explanations. Part of my HVAC system is in my attic and I asked about moving it down into the garage. Larry said that could be done but probably wasn't a good idea. I expressed concern over condensation leaks I've had in the past and he understood. He was very thourough and patient in explaining the mitigations he would put in place to prevent any future leaks and also explained why moving the components into the garage on a house sitting on a slab foundation would make any potential condensation drainage musch more difficult. It all made perfect sense. Larry got back to me with an estimate that afternoon and gave me a followup call to see if I had any questions. I didn't and asked when we could get started with the work. As this is the week before Christmas, I was expecting sometime next week. I was pleasantly surprised when he said they could do it the next day! He called to make sure all of the necessary materials were in stock and called me back to confirm and 8:30 AM arrival time for his crew. The Crew (TJ, Jeremy, Nick and Dave) showed up promptly and got to work as soon as I cleared them a path through my garage to the Attic access ladder. They worked through the day and by 4:30 PM I had a new HVAC system to include a new additional return air vent. I am extremely pleased with my entire Experience with Smiley's. If you are looking to have a professional team replace your HVAC system at a reasonable price, call Larry!"

"Dana and his team did a great job preparing our house for move in. The team thoroughly cleaned the dryer duct line that had not been properly cleaned for several years; they cleaned out a high fire risk. They also installed two high quality vent guards to prevent birds and other critters from accessing the dryer duct and first floor bathroom exhaust duct. The team also cleaned the HVAC ducts on our house. They identified some mold in a few of the lines and replaced one of the worst lines. They also pointed out a couple of issues with the HVAC transitions that had tears in the flex line that exposed insulation and some mold on the interior insulation in a metal transition duct for the upstairs HVAC system; both were recommended for replacement or repair by a certified HVAC mechanic. Upon completion, they back-fogged each duct, replaced all vents (28 in total), filled gaps between the metal vent and ceilings on the second floor (should have been done when the house was constructed in 2003), and sanitized both HVAC zones. The mold, issues with the transitions and gaps between the metal vent openings and ceiling holes were not note by the home inspector prior to closing, and were not disclosed by the previous homeowner. Total cost for all the work was around $3300. While the price might seem high, the quality and thoroughness of the work completed, the professionalism and efficiency of the crew, and the large volume of work (cleaned 28 vent lines plus the the main trunk for each of two zones) was very reasonable for the time required and the labor quality. In our prior home, I used another local company who advertises through ValuePak to clean the ducts. Following their service I had issues with collapsed HVAC duct lines afterward that caused icing on the AC unit. Initially, the other company was significantly cheaper, but their work was shoddy, their technician was not as careful and diligent, and ended up costing about the same on a smaller house due to the problems caused by the cleaning. I highly recommend Dana and Airight. I will definitely be calling on them again for dryer vent line and duct cleaning in the future."

FAQs for boiler or radiator heating system service projects in Norfolk, VA

The way an outdoor wood furnace works is that it burns wood inside a firebox to generate heat. This heat is transferred to the air around it, which is then distributed throughout your home using a dedicated system. If the furnace is properly sized, you can also integrate it with your hot water supply for efficient heating.

Standard outdoor wood furnaces are 75% efficient on average, meaning that they convert 75% of the wood's energy into heat and waste the rest as smoke. Gasification wood furnaces are over 90% efficient because they burn the wood and the smoke particles, using less wood to produce the same amount of heat as standard models.

With proper care, an outdoor wood furnace can last between 15 and 20 years. Regular weekly cleaning, annual professional inspections, and prompt repairs can extend its lifespan up to 30 years. Proactively addressing issues early can prevent costly repairs and premature replacement. Consistent maintenance ensures efficient heating and protects your investment over the long term.

You should install your outdoor wood furnace between 30 and 500 feet from your house to meet safety and regulatory standards. This distance minimizes fire risks and ensures you comply with local building codes and insurance requirements. The ideal placement of an outdoor wood furnace or boiler balances convenience with safety, allowing for efficient heat transfer while reducing smoke exposure. Also consider wind patterns, property boundaries, and accessibility for wood delivery when choosing the optimal location for your installation.
