Natick – “We seek out the highest-quality fuels and equipment and adhere to industry best practices in all we do,” said Art Chaves, treasurer. “Quality products deliver the best results, which is what we want for every customer.”
Coan Heating & Air Conditioning in Natick provides comprehensive comfort care through advanced solutions for heating, cooling and indoor air quality. Founded in 1946 by Francis Coan as a home heating oil business, Coan today is now a “one-stop-shop” for home comfort with products that include fuels, heating and cooling equipment, boilers, furnaces, water heaters, oil tanks and air conditioners.
With homeowners facing volatile energy prices these days, Coan works hard to provide an integrated approach that helps to limit your energy costs. This includes high efficiency equipment, price protection programs and service contracts that reduce system maintenance and repair costs. Recently added is online access to your account where you can make a payment, view your balance, sign up for a budget plan or lock in your price protection.
Also important at Coan is staying up to date with the latest product innovations in the oil heat industry. According to the American Energy Coalition guide to oil heat, most of today’s oil-fired systems display the U.S. Department of Energy’s Energy Star label, which signifies that they are technologically advanced and clean burning with near-zero emission levels. At Coan, the fuel oil delivered is a blend of heating oil and renewable biofuel known as Bioheat. The petroleum component of this new blend is Low Sulfur Heating Oil, which contains only 15 to 500 parts per million of sulfur – a reduction of about 99 percent compared to traditional heating oil. The “bio” component is biofuel made from renewable organic materials such as plants and waste cooking oil. It burns cleaner than petroleum with lower emissions and little sulfur content.
“Coan Oil is ahead of the curve with this new fuel, but the entire industry is expected to follow suit within a few years,” said Chaves. “Our fuel blend is a cut above what most other dealers sell because we purchase the best fuel that our suppliers can provide and treat it with a special additive for superior performance.”
Coan also offers the highest quality oil tanks from the world’s best manufacturers including double-walled oil tanks by Roth that are designed to provide the highest level of environmental protection. Other new products recommended by Chaves are 95 percent efficient oil boilers, leading the way in energy efficient products in 2015, and NEST thermostats, a thermostat that learns your schedule, programs itself and can be controlled from your phone.
“Coan’s goal is to build lasting relationships by exceeding our customers’ expectations every time they call on us,” said Chaves. “We are an experienced team of heating and cooling experts who embrace energy conservation and love helping customers reduce their energy costs.”
