"My wall gas heater one day just went out. I called several companies and was told they didn’t service that type of heater. One company gave me the number for Angi. The guys with Whitestone came immediately and suggested I replace it because the problem was the pilot. I bought a new heater and they installed it in just a couple of days later. I feel that they were very knowledgeable, diligent and pleasant. It’s working great."

"On the price, I don't, but it was also reasonable. They had also installed a water heater like a year before, reasonable. For sure they're a good service provider, any issues I have with the HVAC or my water system, I'll go to them. They clean up behind themselves; I don't have to do much."

"I can't say enough about the team at Old Skool HVAC. I learned of this organization from a close friend who had work done and recommended them. Frank is a great guy. On time, professional, knowledgeable, and his team is a reflection of this as well. They were always on time, on schedule, clean, and very personable. They finished our job a little early, and during the first heat wave just about week or two ago, our house never felt better. Great service, quality, and pricing. It's funny, with central AC, you never really know that it's hot out until you leave the house and come home. It's during this first transition that I realized how quiet and effective of a system that was installed. If you are looking for any form of HVAC work in your home of business, I'd recommend contacting this group of professionals."

"Patriot was awesome from the start. I got 3 estimates for the same Trane AC units, removal of 2 very old systems and install of 2 new systems and they were the best price by far and offered a 2 year labor warranty on top of it. The removal and install went great and Will wouldn’t leave until I was 100% satisfied with everything. Highly recommend them for any heating or air conditioning needs."

FAQs for electrical baseboard or wall heater service projects in Philadelphia, PA

Electric baseboard heating costs an average of $400 per month for a 1,200-square-foot house. Your monthly cost can vary depending on factors such as regional climate, energy usage, and the efficiency of your system. Improving insulation and using zone heating can help manage operational expenses. Local electricity rates have a significant impact on costs, with some areas experiencing rates that are up to 50% higher than the national average. Older units are less efficient, resulting in higher monthly heating costs.

Electric convection baseboard heaters are less energy-efficient because they lose heat rapidly after being in active operation. Their design causes rapid heat dissipation, which forces the heater to consume extra energy to maintain the desired temperature. This increased energy consumption is a direct result of the rapid loss of stored heat, reducing overall energy efficiency. Despite this drawback, these heaters are designed for longevity and can operate effectively for over 20 years, making them a durable and long-term option for providing warmth in your home.

Baseboard heaters offer precise room-by-room temperature control, and their installation costs $100 to $150 per room. In contrast, forced-air systems cost $5,000 for a moderately sized house but include features like dehumidifiers and central air conditioning. While baseboard heaters convert energy directly into heat, forced-air systems can increase your home's resale value and adaptability. When deciding between the two, consider both the installation costs and monthly energy expenses to determine which option best fits your long-term needs.

Electric baseboard heaters should be replaced when they no longer provide consistent and steady warmth and when repair costs continually outweigh the benefits of keeping the current unit. They need to be replaced as soon as persistent issues occur that indicate the unit's degradation. Clear signs for replacement include visible corrosion, slow heating response, and diminished heat output. Allowing these problems to persist not only increases energy consumption but also poses safety risks. Upgrading to a modern heating system ensures improved energy efficiency and reliability, providing a safer and more reliable heating solution for your home.
