The demand for more energy-efficient HVAC solutions isn’t going anywhere but up. And thanks to all of the recent advances in technology, the definition of comfort has been refined in such a way that people expect the homes or buildings they’re in to automatically sense their ideal temperature, adjust the system to match it precisely, and to do it without making an audible noise or creating a noticeable swing in temperature. A simple task for a magician, but there aren’t many of those in the HVAC industry. So how do contractors solve this riddle? Unfortunately, there is no silver bullet. But The NEWS recently went on the road to visit three contractors in rural Pennsylvania, and their answer: hydronics.
See what Anthony Tosco, owner of Avanti Plumbing, Heating and Cooling in Audubon; Dustin Ebersole, owner of High Efficiency Solutions in Lancaster; and Vince Youndt, president of Vertex Mechanical in Stevens had to say about this small but growing market segment.
