How can the homeowner be comfortable with a piece of equipment that would condition twice the amount of house? The answer lies in the true performance of the HVAC system.

The Maytag® PSH4BE and MSH4BE 14/15-SEER air-source heat pumps now include all-aluminum microchannel condensing coils.

With four models supplying from 84,800-214,800 Btuh, and cascades of up to 16 units for even higher outputs, the Buderus GB142 modulating gas condensing boiler can provide sufficient heating comfort for any type and size of home or small to medium business, said the company.

When it comes to boilers and water heaters, manufacturers are sensing an ongoing trend — the move to higher-efficiency models.

Water heater and boiler manufacturers are diligently introducing high-efficiency systems into the marketplace with the goal of making life easier for both the contractor and the consumer. 

These days, it’s not just going into a house and installing a cast-iron boiler. Today’s units offer consumers multiple choices regarding efficiency and performance. 

The NEWS' annual “Best Contractor to Work For” contest recognizes four contractors in four different regions of the U.S. for their efforts in making their workplaces not only areas where customer service is great, but places for employees to thrive and grow — places where a job is more than a job, it’s a career. 

After discussing the employment situation with contractors from across the nation, it’s evident that much of the HVACR industry is looking for good people to fill the vacancies. 

Sales techniques really do work in all markets, and when they are not working, they are not being used correctly. 

For the Kennihans’ dedication to their employees’ welfare and careers, Kennihan Plumbing, Heating, and Air Conditioning has been recognized as The NEWS’ Best Contractor to Work For in the East region.
