Our pellet stove looks amazing and the installation could not have been done more professionally…read more We are very impressed with both the product and the service! We highly recommend Great Bear Renewable Energy - if you are like us and have no clue about pellet stoves, or where to start, do yourself a favor and have them visit you for an in-home consultation. Great Bear explains everything, welcomes your questions and really strives to make the entire process as smooth as possible. I changed my mind a couple of times about a couple of things and they were very accomodating. From start to finish, the entire buying, installation and use has been a breeze! The prices are not only fair, they are affordable and they really are willing to work with you to get the best stove in your home within your budget.

So - my partner and I wanted to install a pellet stove or wood stove in our house. We initially…read morethought pellet and shopped around for those, then we decided wood. My partner put an ad on CL to see what was out there and was contacted by Jim, of Great Bear Renewable Energy. Jim said that he had a reconditioned wood stove that was still under warranty and he could do a full install that would meet all requirements and sell us a mantle for the new stove. We were completely happy with his price, bought the stove, sight unseen, where going to buy a mantle from him. We built a new hearth, had the fireplace cleaned, scheduled his inspection visit and we gave him a 50% deposit on the spot. He scheduled one install day and then had to reschedule. We confirmed the new date and checked in to confirm it again as it got closer (because we are facing November now and had already had one date go bad). He seemed like a nice enough guy when he came for the inspection and we were really excited about the stove. Out of the blue we get a check for a full refund of the stove with no explanation whatsoever. We call/email and ask why and get a message that my partner is a 'details guy' and so Jim doesn't think we'd be a 'good fit.' WHAT?!? If by "details guy" he means - we pay for a service, on time, as requested, and so we like to know that we are going to receive the service as promised - then, yes, he is a 'details guy'. When did this become a bad thing? We didn't hold back payment, we didn't demand to see the stove in person before we bought it, he is the one who replied to our query on CL - and then he rejects our business with a thoroughly questionable excuse? Can't recommend anyone do business with this Great Bear Renewable Energy. Now we are facing November, no wood stove and no chance of getting a good price on one until next summer when the winter season is over. Thanks for nothing.

Based on my research I got the bright idea that I could install heated floors. The basement ceiling…read morewas exposed, so I could do fasten heat transfer plates to the subfloor, and be living in the future. I looked around online for information for quite a while before I settled on Radiantec for having the most clearly understandable information about how radiant loops work, and what to expect of them. I placed my order, and was off to the races. The first thing that you need to understand though is that an installation below the subfloor is the least efficient way to install a heated floor. I learned that the hard way as I had to turn the temperature progressively higher to satisfy the heat load for my building. That is not a criticism of Radiantec, but it is definitely worth noting if you expect to heat your home with 90 degree water. A subfloor installation calls for closer to 140 on the coldest days. David at Radiantec was very helpful in answering my questions, and estimating what materials I needed for the system. Every home is different, but his estimate was nearly spot on. Their shipment also comes with a few repair couplings, because mistakes are inevitable, and their couplings are much more cost effective than a SharkBite alternative. I also appreciated their comparison of the effectiveness of different aluminum plate widths. They seem to have optimized the plate for cost effectiveness, because it definitely gets the job done. When I compared their material prices to competing radiant system distributers, Radiantec was an excellent value. The installation process was hard, tedious work, but so is all construction. I got it done, and was excited to finally activate my system. Let me just say that a radiant system is not terribly expensive if you do the work your self, but it is well worth it to never have to deal with a cold surface in your home again. That first day you wake up, and feel the heat coming off of your mattress is glorious. If you have some time and patience, I highly recommend this for a DIY project.
