PROBLEM: Our homeowner's three-season sunroom was unusable during extreme temperatures, making it an inefficient and uncomfortable space in both winter and summer. Relying on space heaters and opening doors to the main house provided minimal relief and increased energy waste.
PROBLEM: This homeowner lacked central air conditioning, leaving most of his living space uncomfortable during hot summers. Additionally, his reliance on radiator heat made winter heating inefficient and costly.
PROBLEM: Bob was exhausted from the never-ending task of refilling his boiler with gallons of water, only to find water leaks in his basement every time he came home. His outdated boiler setup had become a major hassle and he knew it was time for a change.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort came to the rescue by installing an Energy Kinetics Accel CS boiler, known for its exceptional efficiency in producing heat and hot water. But that's not all - we took it a step further by swapping out Bob's old cast iron radiators with sleek and modern wall panel Runtal radiators, ensuring that every corner of his home receives the warmth it deserves.
PROBLEM: Our homeowners had a twenty-five year old boiler with a bad gas valve. Replacement of the unit was expensive and they decided it'd be wiser to invest in a new boiler as a long-term investment in their comfort and safety.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a newer version of their Burnham boiler, a series-3 Model #306 gas boiler with electronic ignition. This new boiler is more efficient than the old version and will save on fuel by not running a pilot light constantly. The new control packages can save between 15 and 20 percent in fuel costs.
Problem: This row home, built in the 1920's in Old City has a gas-fired water boiler and cast iron radiators for heat, but no central air at all. This means relying on bulky window air conditioners that are a pain to install and take down.
Solution: ECI installed Mitsubishi ducted and ductless mini-split systems. These system doesn't need ductwork to add both air conditioning and heat, so it's a perfect way to solve heating and cooling problems in older homes that lack the extra space for ductwork.
PROBLEM: These homeowners were looking for a better solution for their home than lugging window air conditioners up to the third floor of their University City home. They wanted a whole-home solution that would keep them cool and run more efficiently than window units.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a Unico high velocity system that will provide the homeowners with quiet air conditioning (and heating) comfort throughout their home, and will even be able to remove 30 percent more humidity out of the air -- a blessing to anyone living through Philadelphia summers!
PROBLEM: Our customer had an old boiler that was leaking and needed replacement. The Weil-McLain cast iron, three-section boiler with a tankless coil had developed a leak, and they called ECI, who also provides their home oil service, to recommend a replacement boiler that would be cost-effective and could be put in as soon as possible.
SOLUTION: ECI recommended a Burnham cast iron boiler with a domestic tankless coil, based on its economical price point and the availability of installation immediately.
PROBLEM: Our customer had an old boiler that needed replacing and they were always running out of hot water, making doing the wash and taking a shower at the same time a real difficulty!
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a new Energy Kinetics System 2000 boiler that also acts as a tankless hot water system, delivering not only great heating throughout the home but virtually unlimited hot water at the same time!
Problem: Feasterville Fitness Center's pool had developed a leak in the coil as well as corrosion leading to its eventual breakdown.
Solution: ECI Comfort replaced the broken down pool heater with a new and efficient pool heater, a ThermoDynamics OTF-1600, which should keep the pool warm and inviting for years to come.
PROBLEM: The 20-year-old air conditioner in a Queen Village rowhome needed replacement. Our homeowners wanted to upgrade their high velocity system.
SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a Unico high velocity air conditioning system. This required careful work, including coordination with the electric company, to get the new unit onto a second-story platform.
