Mechanical Room/Furnace/Solar Hot Water
Geoff helped us replace our old crappy furnace and hot water tank with a boiler, solar hot water system and modern forced air heat. They did a great job, were clean and quick. Geoff was especially honest and professional, when subcontractors encountered cost overruns (our project was the first multi-appliance install/whole mechanical room re-fit for all professional's involved) Geoff ensured that our cost remained within the original estimate.
Our new system works wonderfully, furnace is quite and the system is odorless (our old flame based furnace would have a burnt dusty smell from time to time and occasional scent of flame). The monthly consumption savings have been significant... I especially enjoyed the refund I received in August because the gas company had so badly overestimated our consumption for a few months that they had to readjust the bill to reflect that!
I will conceded that the initial investment is significant to convert your mechanical room to this system, however I do feel the overall long term savings, environmental impact and decreased stress from the minimal maintenance will pay us back in satisfaction long before we really see a significant financial return... but if you are keeping your home for the long run (as we plan to)... this system is definitely something to consider! And Geoff pioneered this kind of environmentally friendly heat system here in the Bow Valley... so he knows his stuff!
