Who Cares About Seasonal Heating Tune Ups, Anyway?
Clarkstown HVAC review scores as of 9/25/24
Even though it’s technically still summer, pumpkin spice season is already upon us. That means, before you know it you’ll want to kick on your heating system to take the chill off. Too often, people turn their system on for the first time, only to be met with heartache. They discover that their system either isn’t working properly – or isn’t working at all. Yet, many people think getting seasonal heating tune ups for their home is a waste of money. But is it? Why should you care about getting your system its annual checkup, anyway?
According to ENERGY STAR, heating system tune ups are important, much like getting your car maintained yearly. They explain the typical steps taken during a checkup, and what each does to help your heating system. ENERGY STAR explains that not only is maintenance important for system efficiency, it also helps your system last longer and work more effectively. Most importantly, though, it helps keep you safe, as faulty operation can cause carbon monoxide leaks or fire.
Here’s how a seasonal heating tune up helps:
- Thermostat settings are checked. This ensures you’re getting maximum energy efficiency from your heating system.
- Electrical connections are tightened, and voltage is measured. If you have faulty electrical components, that can cause your system to operate unsafely.
- Moving parts are lubricated. This helps cut down on wear and tear, as well as the amount of electricity used by your system.
- System controls are checked. This ensures your system starts, stops and runs properly.
- Gas and oil connections are checked. This one is very important. If these connections aren’t working properly, they can cause concern for your health and safety.
- Filters are changed. This one you can do yourself and you should – once a month during times when your heating system is operating. Not sure how? Your technician will be glad to show you.

Smooth Transition in a Boiler Emergency
You have made this large investment [Carrier Boiler] a smooth transition and kept your word every step of the way. Your sales representative really know the product and made me feel assured that I am in capable hands. The installers took the time to explain the installation process, including workings of the boiler, troubleshooting and maintenance. Thank you again!

Competitive Pricing and Great Installation Crew
Clarkstown Heating & Air Conditioning replaced our aging boiler and hot water heater. Salesman was very knowledgeable and presented a couple options that would work for our home. Quote arrived in a day and was very competitive in price with other companies. Installation crew was extremely professional, very courteous and attention to detail was superb. I personally called the owner TJ, to let him know of the great job his team did from start-to-finish.

Great Service, Even In Older Homes
Our house is brick and stucco, built in 1900, and Clarkstown offered a system that seemed best for us. Three of techs showed up on time, finished the job, explained in depth how to operate the system, and left in the same day. They were polite, clean, efficient, on time and exceeded our expectations. Nothing is better than working with professionals! We are 100% satisfied with the product and the service.

No Mess Left Behind!
Once the job started it was quick. The work men did not leave a mess behind, in fact if not for the generator itself, we couldn’t tell they had been on the property.

Warranty Covered Our Repair
My Carrier furnace stopped working in October and needed a part. Rob, the technician from Clarkstown, investigated my problem, looked into the unit’s warranty, and the repaired was covered. There were no surprises; they were honest and thorough. The technician was knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. I would recommend Clarkstown in a second.

Polite and Patient Crew
Clarkstown Heating and Air sent three workers to replace my boiler. The workers arrived on time, were neat, cleaned up after themselves, and very polite.

I would definitely recommend them to anyone seeking a New Boiler, New Water Heater, or Air Conditioning System.

No Signs of a Major Installation
Clarkstown Heating & A/C replaced our old AC system. The salesman was knowledgeable and answered as many questions as I could think of. The installation crew also came exactly when they said, worked through the day, and when I came home from work, they were gone. The house showed no signs of a major installation and the system was working, quietly cooling the house.
Herb P. | Suffern, NY
Took the Time to Explain Everything
I had my furnace and A/C units replaced. The installer, Clayton, arrived on time with his assistant. He took the time to explain everything to me, then they proceeded to disconnect the old units and connect the new ones. They laid out drop cloths so that they could keep everything clean, and when they were done they cleaned up and took everything with them. Overall, they did an excellent job.
Frank Z. | Ramsey, NJ
Minimized Appearance of New Installation
The installation of the gas pipe was accomplished in a creative manner by running the pipe inside the ceiling rather than below. This minimized the appearance of an unsightly pipe. The electrician demonstrated the knowledge and ability concerning the electrical components and placements of the Transfer Box.

Completed the Work 1 Week Ahead of Schedule

Owners Dedicated to Making Customers Happy
Several years ago they installed a new boiler and hot water heater. And since the installation there have been several issues that they’ve had to come back for but every time they came they were prompt and addressed all of my complaints beyond my satisfaction. It was always very important to the owners to make me, the customer, very happy. I would highly recommend their service. I’ve also used them to replace my central air conditioner unit and was very satisfied with the product and service.

Best Equipment & Workmanship, for the Least Cost
The clean up was so good. We couldn’t even tell the crews were here and the work was done! We interviewed 3 other companies and ended up getting the best equipment, best workmanship, for the least cost. I was waiting for something to go wrong, but it never did.
