Case Studies

PROBLEM: This Cape Cod-style home built in 1953 had existing ductwork for central air and heat, but certain rooms experienced uneven temperatures, resulting in discomfort. Two second floor bedrooms already had Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat ductless systems to combat the home's issues, but a third room was experiencing similar issues. 

SOLUTION: ECI Comfort installed a single-zone Mitsubishi Hyper-Heat ductless system in the first floor office and guest bedroom. This room does not heat up or cool as well as the rest of the house, so this ductless unit will provide the perfect solution to create comfort in the home. 

PROBLEM: Having recently moved into this home with no air conditioning, the homeowners were looking for an affordable way to cool the second floor's two bedrooms/600 square feet with no ductwork. 

SOLUTION: Our technicians installed a Mitsubishi air handler in the attic with short ducted runs to outlets in the bedrooms and bathrooms. And, as a bonus, the system provides supplemental heating.

PROBLEM: Our customer had an eight year oil boiler, and another company was recommending replacement. The homeowner called ECI for a second opinion to make sure they wouldn't be unnecessarily spending extra money. 

SOLUTION: ECI contacted the company and we were able to replace the boiler under rebate warranty, as well as obtain an $850 rebate for the homeowner. We were able to do a complete replacement of the unit with a newer version rapidly and cost-effectively, saving them significant costs over recommendations from other companies.

PROBLEM: Our homeowner had a 13-year-old gas furnace that developed a crack in the heat exchanger causing carbon monoxide to escape into the house and set off detectors.

SOLUTION: ECI Comfort replaced the heater with the cracked heat exchanger with a new Amana gas furnace that features a two-stage variable speed motor and comes with a lifetime heat exchanger warranty.
