Jeffrey did a terrific job converting our home from oil to gas and installing our new steam boiler. His work was thorough and highly customized. The project cost exactly what the estimate was and our heat this winter has been much more comfortable and consistent with fewer-to-no cold spots in the house.

I general contracted my own vacation home 120 miles away from my current residence which, under the best of circumstances, is a daunting task. It was extremely important that I obtained the best sub-contractor in each respective capacity. I found such an individual in my selection of a radiant heat specialist, Jeffrey Young of Climatec.
The installation of radiant heat can be done in a myriad of ways and is often done by plumbers who propose to be knowledgeable. I selected Climatec because they specialize in the design, installation and service of radiant heat. Their knowledge (specifically Jeffrey's) of the area far exceeded even the best of the plumbers.
Jeffrey and I worked together on a regular basis and I closely observed his work ethic. I have rarely had the pleasure of working with anyone who exhibits so many outstanding qualities. He is assiduously devoted to his work, well organized and highly efficient. The quality of his work is outstanding. Others who have had the opportunity to see his completed work have referred to it as "masterful" and "it is like a work of art".
I find Climatec and Jeffrey Young represent a standard of excellence by which all others in the construction business should be judged.

I write for a living. Since 1989, I've written 14 books about the joys of hot water and steam heating and I've traveled across the US and Canada, as well as to Europe many times – always to talk to heating professionals, to look at their fine work, and to learn. I also write monthly columns in Plumbing & Mechanical, PMEngineer and Supply House Times magazines. These go, respectively, to contractors, engineers and wholesalers. I know some people!
But of all the people I've met in this industry, I don't think I've met one that is more professional and technically proficient than Jeffrey Young (and he doesn't pay me to say that!). This guy cares about every job he does. He brings pride and knowledge to every job, and he makes me proud to be a part of this industry.
You looking for someone you'll only have to call once? This is the guy.

Jeffrey,
We are extremely pleased with the "rebuild of our heating system. Your work is truly first class and my customers are amazed when they see your work while in our home. We have no problem recommending you to any of our friends since your speaks for itself. We thought the cost was on the high side until we saw your work. You are very neat, come when you say and do not leave until the work is done, and dome correctly. You came a great distance to work on our system, which is probably 70 miles each way. We are glad you did every time we walk by your work. Not only does our system work better, it looks like wall art. Thanks again.

Jeffrey,
I travel around this country and meet a lot of contractors and you are absolutely a breath of fresh air... You only do it the right way, you only know the right way. You have taken some of the European heating principles that I hold dear and really internalized them like... Better equipment pays for itself, make a system that gets installed correctly, save all kinds of energy, both fuel AND electricity. Keep it up, Jeff. You're changing the world one satisfied customer at a time!
Best Wishes for your continued success,

Serving as a distinguished lecturer and technical resource for industry organizations has taken me across the continent and onto hundreds of world class construction projects. Few are as professionally designed, fabricated and maintained as those done by Jeffrey Young. A true craftsman and project collaborator - they don't come any better.

Jeffrey's work is fabulous! He really knows radiant floor heating. If you are having issues with your radiant, you need to call him.

Jeffrey also helped us DIY our bathroom radiant floor heating when we were able. This morning it was 18°F outside, but my radiant floor was warm and cozy with a room temperature of 70°F. Taking a shower on a cold morning doesn't frighten me any longer. You do pay extra for quality, but with Jeffrey's service, I wouldn't consider anything else close to the system I've acquired from these master installers.
Sincerely,

Jeffrey,
"Our three story, College Hill, Easton, home was built in the early 1900's and is kept warm efficiently, evenly and with amazingly low fuel bills in this time of increasing energy costs. The Viessmann Vitola based heating system and the professionalism of the Climatec personnel are to be highly recommended."

We couldn't be happier. Our house stays consistently warm no matter what the outside temperature. Even my wife, the skeptic, is happy. Thanks for everything.

Jeffrey / Jason,
Although my Unico application was fairly straightforward, (outfitting a ranch style house with no existing AC, but readily accessible attic) you offered me your approach and detailed all aspects of the job to suppress any concerns. Your attention to detail, appearance, and my scheduling was uplifting. Each day I came home it was as if nobody had been in the house – except for a few uneaten doughnuts! ;-) Your work ethic from start to finish was appealing. I would highly recommend you to any of my friends and already have! Thanks "HEATBOY" for a job well done! Heating options next?? You bet you'll get my business!!

When we were adding the addition to our home, one of our goals was to use radiant floor heating. With the 15' ceilings, radiant is the only type of heat that made sense. Jeffrey worked with us on a do-it-yourself basis so we could accomplish our goal of radiant. The existing part of our home is heated with forced air so we know there really is no comparison between the two types of heat. Radiant floor heating is the winner when it comes to pure comfort!
Scott S. Schaffer

"When we built our home in 1996, we were concerned about the comfort of the large rooms with 20 foot ceilings and huge windows. With Jeffrey's tremendous knowledge of radiant heat, he designed a system that keeps us toasty warm and runs extremely efficiently. Our oil company filled the tank so infrequently that they thought we were alternating deliveries with another company! In fuel savings alone, our system will pay for itself in about seven years.
Lots of 'wanna be' HVAC companies have jumped on the radiant heat band wagon in the last few years, but no one in this area can touch Climatec. I tell people, if they want it done right they need to talk to Jeffrey."

"As one of Jeffrey's first big radiant projects (1993), I had radiant installed in my 200 year old stone home. The radiant was covered with wide plank flooring, giving a correct historic look. Great comfort. I love it!"

"Our radiant floor heating is everything we had hoped for. Very comfortable and fuel-efficient. Jeffrey, your technical knowledge is superb, your workmanship is impeccable and you are a genuinely wonderful person who is a pleasure to work with!"

"Our radiant floor heating system has worked great and is very inexpensive to run. The lower level, which has the radiant, is the most comfortable area in our home. I couldn't be happier!"

" I have worked with Jeffrey Young from Climatec on two separate projects and on both occasions he has been informative about the radiant floor heating systems, suggestive of ideas to meet my needs, friendly, very neat and professional in his manner and installations.
Radiant floor heating is the way to go in heating systems. I recommended it to my son for his new home.
In this area, Climatec is the leader in radiant floor heating and well worth the investment."

"Jeffrey, you may have heard this before, but before I ran into you, I was in a real bind with regard to my radiant job (quality, knowledgeable help, inspector deadlines, etc.). You really came through for me and I can't thank you enough!
P.S. The inspectors were seriously impressed with your work also!"

"This has been a great experience. I was researching radiant floor heating options on the web when I found Climatec's website. I read the testimonials from former clients & Rich Trethewey from "This Old House". I E-mailed Jeffrey with what we were doing and told him about the sunroom's special glass. He called and we talked about the system. I faxed the technical details of the sunroom so he could calculate the needs to keep in warm. He got back to me and discussed all possibilities. I was convinced he was the person I wanted to do the job. Jeffrey was very responsive and accommodating as it took some time to get the project off the ground. Even though we were a little out of his area, he made a special effort to come this far because he was interested in our project. The work he and Jason performed was exceptional. We have had many people see our system and comment on how organized and neat everything is. I would consider using radiant heating in future homes and, if I could get them, use the Climatec boys!"

"Jeffrey, Thank you for taking care of all of our needs immediately and without question. It has been a great pleasure dealing with your organization."
