Overview
A family from Madison CT felt uncomfortable due to their underperforming window air conditioning units and electric baseboard heating system that was costing an astronomical amount of money to heat their home. They were interested in finding a better solution to heat or cool their home. They called Wilcox Energy to alleviate their problem.
We dispatched Kevin, one of our seasoned technicians, to their home. He performed an inspection and consultation with the family to determine the best solution.

What Are The Benefits Of Propane?
- Propane heat is hotter than electric heat: A propane gas furnace heats air to about 130 degrees F to 140 degrees F.
- Safe to store: Propane can be stored safely in a tank on your property, while electricity is subject to power outages.
- Propane furnaces last longer than electric heat pumps: Propane-fueled furnaces last 5 to 10 years longer than electric heat pumps, on average. Propane is more dependable than electricity.
- Built-in safety properties: Propane won’t ignite when combined with air unless the source of ignition reaches 940 degrees.
- Propane is clean: Propane is an approved alternative fuel listed in both the Clean Air Act of 1990 and the National Energy Policy Act of 1992.
How Long Does A Propane Furnace Last in Madison, CT?
A propane furnace lifespan is around 15-30 years. With regular, scheduled, yearly furnace maintenance, your furnace should easily last over 15 years.

Excellent Service
Lynn - Madison, CT 06443
Wilcox comes through again! After living in another state for many years we are always impressed by the service Wilcox provides. This time was no exception. Our AC went out during a very busy time of year for AC repair. Nevertheless, Wilcox was able to replace our system in a timely manner. When the 3 Wilcox trucks arrived this morning, we felt like the Calvary had arrived. They were prompt, polite and incredibly efficient. They took the time to explain everything they were doing, were very careful about our property, and even made friends with our dog. We are loyal customers for life.

Awesome technician. Great service
Steven - Madison, CT 06443
Kurtis was awesome. He was here for a tune up cleaning up what seems to be far more than the scope of a normal tune up should entail. Furnace is nice and quiet now.
Excellent service!
Kim - Madison, CT 06443
We replaced our boiler & water heater. The technicians were amazing. They spent time making sure the new equipment was in the best spot, and they also took time telling all about the new system.
Exceptional Service!
Stephen - Madison, CT 06443
Jared was outstanding. Our dual oil tank system had a block between the tanks preventing oil from traveling to our burner. On a cold December night, he answered all my questions by phone before visiting our home and diagnosing the problem quickly. He fixed our heat within 20 minutes. And he was professional and informative. We feel very lucky that Jared was on call and we are very thankful for his help in restoring our heat.
More than excellent service
