    When I purchased my current home in 2020 I was alerted by my homes inspector about the HVAC system. I was advised it was at the end of its life expectancy (30yo), the furnace and A/C were too oversized and that they were operating poorly. After a couple years of minor repairs my wife said enough was enough as we headed towards another winter. So, I got 5 separate quotes from local companies with comparable equipment. 3 of the 5 companies silently looked at my existing equipment before jumping on a laptop to run calculations, and selected similar sized furnace and AC for their proposals. Only 2 companies looked at the current equipment, measured the space available to install the furnace before knowing and stating the system was oversized for the sqft of my home off the top of their head. Steve Dicaprio with northeastern was one of the two who truly knew what he was talking about. I told him I was looking for a high efficiency duel fuel heat pump/natural gas furnace. He remeasured the closet of my current HVAC system and stated it would be a tight fit but he could make it work. He recommended a Bosch system with a Bosch thermostat. I told him I was getting quotes for a replacement in the late fall. I should also mention he came to my house at 5pm on a Friday as it was the only day I had open for the week. He left with a smile and a hand shake and promptly sent me an emailed proposal. No pushy sales tactics at my house, no follow up emails in the three months after the quote , just good factual information and an excellent knowledge of products and residential HVAC installations. After researching equipment recommendations and comparing quotes , Northeastern was offering the best equipment with the best price - without any “limited time discounts” other companies were presenting. I emailed Steve to go forward with signing a contract, financing (18m @ 0%) and installation. I was advised it would be a two day job all said and done. Two weeks later Steve arrived early with his crew and began removal and installation. His crew was professional looking, polite and kept their workspace clean and didn’t mind my children running past them at times. They stayed until after 5pm the first day to make sure I had heat for the night. I was notified they had to replace and change the PVC exhaust and its location as the original one was not glue at all, and was showing signs of leaking. Steve didn’t charge for the extra work even though it wasn’t on the proposal , and he did so for our safety. The next install day they again arrived early, and were quietly getting the heat pump out of the truck and tools together before I opened the door and welcomed them back into my home. They again stayed past 5 doing different test runs of the furnace, the heat pump, setting the switchover temps, and then doing an in depth walk through explaining the new thermostat, the controls and set points, filter access and replacement. A week later and I never imagined how happy I would be from a HVAC system and paying that expense. My heat now turns on and off silently, and my house has never been warmer. I’ll update with results of the Bosch heat pump’s performance in the summer and it’s ability to cool and dehumidify. I could not have asked for more out of Steve and his crew and am truly thankful for their good work. Their install was neat , properly duct sealed , and very detail oriented. Their line set was clean, and their braising was good and they used nitrogen in the line set (sorry for spying on you Steve !) I highly recommend Steve and his crew
