Whole Home Humidifiers
Install a whole home humidifier to alleviate the problems associated with dry indoor air in the winter in Utah
Increase your wellness with a whole home humidifier. A whole house humidifier is a great option if you are concerned with or dealing with dryness issues or are tired of dealing with portable one room humidifiers.
Firing up your furnace during Utah’s cold winter can really dry out the air. Dry air causes chapped lips, dry itchy skin, dry brittle hair, dry eyes, respiratory issues, nosebleeds, and cracked woodwork. And as referenced by Vicks (the cold medicine manufacturer), a dry environment allows the flu virus to live longer.
A humidifier adds moisture back into the air through cool mist or steam.
Once a whole house humidifier is installed, operating it is simple. Just set the humidity level based on the outside temperature, and the humidifier will run automatically as needed.

Our water heater began to leak in the middle of the night. We discovered the leak in the morning. Black Diamond responded quickly to our emergency and had one of their plumbers, Chris Pedraza, to our house by 11:30am. Chris gave us an honest evaluation of the work that needed to be done, and he came prepared to do the work. He installed a new water heater by 4:30pm, which included having to upgrade our systems to reflect current code. We were impressed with his knowledge, competence, and hard work and his willingness to address multiple problems. We appreciate the excellent service and quick response.read more

We have used Black Diamond for TV installation, plumbing, electrical and furnace. The quality of the work and value is great. Chris Pedraza, Plumbing Tech, is phenomenal - he's honest, provides options to you on repairs and gives great recommendations, and displays a true concern and care for the work that he does. We have the Diamond Service Plan and could not be happier with the service that we receive from the technicians as well as the office schedulers who are in constant communication with you on appointment times and arrivals.read more

We had a technician (Jason King) come give us a second quote on running a gas line to a new range and installing a wall-mounted range hood. I was very impressed with Jason's thoughtful questions, attention to detail and especially safety, and his high standards for the work he was describing. You might spend more money with this company, but "expert" does seem to be an accurate description of their plumbers and HVAC staff.read more

My husband and I just had our older home rewired by Kyle and his team, Mike and Matt. From the beginning, we were impressed with his professionalism and patience when discussing his recommendations and answering lots and lots of questions. When planning to move forward with our project, we were told that the next available time to perform the work would be in 2-3 weeks, but Kyle informed us of a last-minute cancellation and he and his team were able to fit our rewire in within a week's time. The entire project took 5 days, and Kyle was communicative, reliable, and made us feel comfortable and at ease with putting our rewire in his team's hands. They were very thorough and didn't miss a thing, and cleaned up well after themselves. 10/10, would rewire again!read more

We are finishing our basement and I love that I can call Black Diamond to help us with a huge portion of getting this project done. They always give great service and are knowledgeable. I appreciate the communication we get from them.Most recently we needed one small item taken care of with our HVAC duct work, and Mike was on time and took care of it right away. He also took into consideration how this would all look when the basement is finished and added the vent in a way that wouldn't affect the overall appearance of the room. Thanks Mike!read more

Highly recommend their electrician Josh - He came over addressed some of the original wiring in our house and did a fantastic job, all within an afternoon. Very professional and knowledgeable. Josh replaced old cloth wiring, replaced lighting, brought numerous junctions up to code, found issues that we were not aware of (like old dangerous splices in ceiling and bare wires), replaced receptacles, and added new fuse junctions. This is the not the first electrical company we have used, and I am glad we won't have to look any further with any other electrical needs in the future.read more

I wish I could give Chris and Cody 10 stars. These two were wonderful. They were so kind and respectful of my home. Chris went the extra mile to figure out how to get my video doorbell installed - I had contacted 8 other electricians and not one of them knew what to do. Chris was incredible, and didn't make me feel like he was wasting my time. He just kept troubleshooting until he figured it out. I'm so grateful to Chris and Cody, and so glad I made the decision to hire Black Diamond. I will definitely be hiring them again and again for my electrical projects around my home. Thank you!read more

Tylor, an electrician with Black Diamond Electric, came to my family's rescue on a Sunday afternoon after a blip in power from the power company fried my home's surge protector and a circuit breaker for a good portion of my home. He quickly trouble shot the problems, replaced the fried parts and even upgraded a couple others. Couldn't have asked for more! Oh BTW, this was after another major electrical company with whom I've done business with for years told me to essentially "pound sand" for coming out on a Sunday afternoon. I'll be sticking with Black Diamond from here on out!read more

Our technician, Brian was professional and took plenty of time to do the job right. He complimented me for preventive maintenance things I have been doing. He inspected our furnace, air conditioner, and humidifier. He suggested things I could do to improve water flow through the humidifier. He cleaned the inside of the furnace, checked our filter and checked to make sure things were running well. The purpose for our service request was to troubleshoot an intermittent condition where the air conditioner failed to start properly. Unfortunately for me, the air conditioner had a failing part that needed to be replaced. He fixed the problem, showed me how to clean off the fins to keep air flow at its highest levels. I am very pleased with the service I received today.read more

Wonderful company to work with. They were prompt from diagnosis to completion. Every person we dealt with was friendly, patient, very skilled, efficient and professional. Pete diagnosed quickly and honestly, then John was fast and efficient at finding the best product for our situation, addressing all concerns and questions without being pushy about selling us something we didn’t need. Zac and Joe were amazing installers, they worked so hard and remained friendly and unobtrusive the whole day so we could continue with what we needed to do. They finished ahead of when they said they would be done and cleaned up their mess. We are very pleased with the product and most of all with the employees. Employees really do make a company. Thank you for your quick and efficient service.read more

Black Diamond is fantastic. They gave us the best guidance and service throughout the entire process. Eric was highly informative during the installation quote and equipment selection. During the whole process he made sure we got the maximum value for our budget. Troy, Nigel, and Malachi did a great, clean job installing our new furnace and A/C. They respected our input and requests regarding how everything was done. Garrett and Mason wrapped up the installation on a separate day due to a scheduling conflict on my behalf. These guys are incredibly easy to do business with. They genuinely care about building a long term relationship with the customer. I'm thankful we chose Black Diamond.read more

Black Diamond installed a new furnace, tankless soft water heater, and central air into our home. This company went above and beyond to ensure that not only the energy efficient product they installed into our home is amazing, but also that their customer service and professionalism is top notch as well. They are very knowledgeable and taught us how to operate and manage the product, hauled away our old furnace, cleaned up after themselves, and did all of this with a genuine smile and friendly demeanor. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for adding central air to an older home like ours, or to those who are building a new home and would prefer for it to be done right the first time.

These guys are real pros. We've hired Black Diamond on a few different occasions and could not be more pleased with their work. Travis, Josh and Anthony have been the electricians assigned to various projects in our home. They have all been polite, extremely knowledgeable and just pleasant overall. They were meticulous with their work, respectful of our home and always cleaned up afterwards. We had an unforeseeable issue with one of the jobs and I cannot stress enough how great they were at handling the problem. It's been many years so I don't remember the owner's name but he was fantastic to work with us to find the best solution to the problem. They are probably not going to be your cheapest bid, but I can assure you, whatever the extra cost is, it's totally worth it. I've dealt with a large number of contractors and various companies over the years in three different homes and I would place this company at the very top of the list regarding customer satisfaction.

Service and price exceeded expectations. I expected this was a large US company gathering up local electrical jobs and using technicians of average quality at a higher price. Turns out this is a relatively small Utah company with great prices and excellent technicians. I scheduled a free estimate call, to install a smart dimmer light switch. When Kyle, the technician, arrived he just looked it over and offered to do the job for $6 less than a local electrician had quoted me. I expected to wait and have a follow up to do the work after the estimate, but Kyle went right to work and had the job done quickly. I did not know how to determine line and load, required to install this switch, which is why I called for help. Kyle carefully showed me an inexpensive tool that indicates line and load and how the tool worked and also gave me a tip on how to be fairly sure of the line, just by loking at the wiring in the light switch box. Service, cost and advice all exceeded expectations.read more

I had another local plumber come do some work for me about a year and a half before Black Diamond came to do anything for me - this other company overcharged for EVERYTHING. Like, MASSIVELY over charged. The last straw for me was when they sent two kids - nothing against young people, you've got to learn sometime, but these were two very young guys who clearly had minimal experience. These two kids tried to snake a drain - did a bad job of it, even I could see they didn't know how to use the equipment. They were at my house for about an hour, left for lunch, (leaving their equipment here,) and came back to try again after lunch - so this ate up about 4 hours of my day. In the end, nothing was solved and they tried to charge me $350. For (poorly) snaking a drain...So I called Black Diamond the next time I needed work on the very same drain. One guy came, he walked in quietly and professionally, immediately recognized what needed to be done, did the work, (mostly just snaking the drain, but he did it with obvious competence,) and then he charged me a very, very fair price - it was all over in like a half hour, it was professional, it was affordable. Even if I hadn't previously had a bad experience I'd've been impressed, but comparing Black Diamond to other folks out there I'm especially enthusiastic about recommending them. They're the best plumbers I've had do work at my house, ever.read more

I had a few different bids come in to get the best price on putting an outlet in my bathroom so I could plug in a bidet. Not only was Black Diamond the best price, but they were also the only ones that said they could do it without needing to do any drywall repairs afterwards! Major Plus. Chris was able to fish the wire through the wall without all the holes. Previous bids had included needing to make two 4 inch square holes in the wall to get it where I wanted it. Chris also was very respectful in always wearing shoe booties, coming on time, and cleaning up every speck of dust. I am pretty sure that that corner of my bathroom is cleaner now than it was before he came. My final note of praise is how flexible Black Diamond was. I was installing this bidet as a surprise Valentine's present and Chris made a special trip out to do the work on Valentine's Day while my husband was at work instead of doing the work right then when it obviously would have been way more convenient for him.

I recently had Black Diamond do some electrical work on a 1930s house. I was very pleased with the entire experience. I had a couple companies quote the job, Black Diamond was the obvious choice. The main reason they stood apart is that they took time to give me all my options. I told them my total budget and they tailored a plan that best fit both my needs and my budget. All of the work was done quickly, professionally, and done well. Next time I need any electrical work done, Black Diamond will be the first place I call.read more

I would highly recommend Black Diamond to anyone!read more

Chris Sr. and Chris Jr. just came out to replace my water heater and did a great job! They were very upfront about my options, pricing, and the work that needed to be done. They were able to fit us in quickly and got everything done so we weren't without hot water very long. Not only were they great at what they did, they cleaned everything up thoroughly when they were done! I'm definitely going to use them again for future plumbing needs.read more

It is so nice to go to one place for HVAC, plumbing and electrical needs. The technicians were total pros. I had two new furnaces installed, new water heaters and a number of electrical issues fixed. They put down drop cloths to make sure they kept the house clean and completely cleaned up after they were done. A great experience top to bottom.read more

I had Troy and Daniel over today, they arrived right on time. We're very customer focused, friendly, and product knowledgeable. They had to move and replace ductwork to install an air filtration system, and took extra care to ensure everything was fit right, sealed correctly, and aesthetically pleasing. They made such a job appear seamless. Before they left they even went the extra mile by dusting out my furnace motor and inspecting my furnace to ensure it was in tip top shape and good working order. These guys are Great, and you can surely tell they are Experts. Great company and Great employees!! Thanks Black Diamond!!read more

The electrician was just that: a professional who knew precisely what he was doing.

Thank you, Black Diamond. I look forward to working with you again.read more

I had an issue with my first scheduling (AC tune-up in the spring) and CS immediately addressed the issue so I decided to give them another try. I'm glad I did! Marisa made sure my request for a different tech was met and that the new tech had my irregular filter size on hand this time around! I appreciate her proactive approach and attention to detail! It's the little things! Rob did my furnace tune-up and he was excellent. Super nice and informative. Thank you both for the excellent experience! Totally redeemed and I plan to reschedule Rob in the spring!read more

They did a great job! We had a power surge and it blew out the circuit board and the transformer. They came out the next morning and fixed it. Very knowledgeable and quick. I thought they were going to be out earlier in the day, but there was a mix-up in communication. I was a bit frustrated, but when the tech got there, it was a smooth ride. So they get 5 stars. I could not have asked for better service. I have need for some electrical too. Calling them right now.read more

We have had the BEST experience with Black Diamond! I have had to rely on them twice now for 2 major jobs (plumbing new AC & heating units) at our rental properties & I have been extremely impressed with their services & professionalism! Today Chris & his son came out to fix a slow faucet & and a toilet at my home & they went out of their way to make sure everything functioned well. With the many other service companies I have had to use in the past I know a good thing after using them! This company will be my only go to for anything else I may need in the future! I’m so grateful that I discovered them! I always dreaded calling service repair companies but not anymore! I highly recommend Black Diamond!!!read more

Chris P Sr. and Chris Jr. evaluated the tight and hard to access condition of the plumbing repair I need and came up with a way to make access better. They did a professional job and did not cut corners and did not take the easy way out and recognize 2 other leaks I was not aware of. Their job was done right the first time. I feel confident that I will not need to worry about this plumbing for a long time. I all most forgot to mention the dispatch who took care of my urgent needs of the the plumbing repair. She tapped her resources and found a crew who could take care of my problem the same day I called. Thanks for the team work...read more

Last Wednesday the drain in my basement next to my washing machine blocked up. My Husband called Black Diamond Plumbing and spoke to a young lady there (he had already called other plumbing companies and they wanted $200 just to come to the house) but they had a special for $49 to come and unclog a drain. Two polite and knowledgable employees called Spencer and Chris Jr. came out and determined that it would need some equipment to unclog the drain. They had it taken care of really quick and they only charged $189 TOTAL. Two nice young men I couldn't recommend them more. Thank you.read more

We called Black Diamond as our AC had gone out and it was 88 degrees in the house. Black Diamond promptly set us up with an appointment for the next day and were so very gracious when we had to call and change the time. Chris (the tech) called to let us know he would be at the house in 30 minutes and arrived when he said he would. What a wealth of knowledge that man is! He fixed the AC, did a health check on the AC and furnace, and never once tried to sell us more than we needed. He was wonderful in answering questions and explaining the work he was doing. I asked him about replacing the thermostat and he said he could if we wanted him to which we did as ours was old but he never pushed us to replace it, it was our idea. Prices with Black Diamond are very reasonable. I would highly recommend Black Diamond and we will use them in the future when the need arises. Thank you Chris & Black Diamond!!read more

Black Diamond was sent to us by our home warranty company and we are very pleased. I received a call from a very nice and understand lady from Black Diamond yesterday and she suggested a time the was close to a previously schedule doctor appointment and when I told her that she found another appointment earlier in this morning and as promise I received a call 30 before the tech arrived. We have been without AC for 2 days. Chris Sullivan is our new hero. He came today and was very professional and efficient. He had old AC motor out & the new one installed and running in just over an hour from the time he arrived. He even explained what he was going to do before he started and checked with our home warranty company ( without me asking him to do that) to make sure it was covered before he started so I would know how much we would have to pay. I am going to recommend Black Diamond Experts to all my friends,read more

Our Central Air stopped working and the inside of our house was 87 degrees. We called several well known companies but could not get an appointment for 4 to 5 days. My husband just started calling down the list and called Black Diamond The lady on the phone was very understanding and empathetic and found a time for the sames day! The service call was only $29, less than any other company we had called. Todd, our service guy was great. He figured out the problem right away. He inspected every part of our Central air and fixed the problem. Our bill was only $179 and it was well worth every penny. I will never call anyone else to service our systems. Thank you so much for your help!read more

I just found Black Diamond from Google but I had called multiple other companies first. All of them were unavailable for several days. But Black Diamond was willing to do a weekend consultation at no extra charge. When they came, they seemed to immediately know what the problem was (capacitor in the condenser). He replaced it, it worked, and he even helped us with some aesthetic rattling from the other condenser. The technician was so friendly and helpful. I'd gladly recommend them to anybody looking.read more

Our central air unit abruptly stopped working at the beginning of the hot season, on one of the hottest days of the year. We called Black Diamond Experts, and spoke to Chris who arranged to come by that same afternoon for a diagnosis.After he reviewed the situation and provided options for repair or replacement we elected to replace our system and he arranged to have a technician out the very next day, which was a Saturday. The technician was very friendly and considerate of my family and our routine, and had the unit installed quickly. The level of service we received, from the person who took my call, to the managers and technicians who helped me select the best option for me exceeded all of my expectations. Replacing an air conditioner is something in the past that has been stressful and expensive, but Black Diamond helped make it a fast and easy experience. I would definitely recommend them to anyone I know.read more

One of the big companies we've used for years canceled my 6-8pm appointment without even calling me. I got an email at 7:53pm. At that point, we hadn't had AC for two days and our hopes were hanging on that appointment. Our bedrooms were 93 degrees and everyone in our family went to grandparent's houses while I stayed with the dog and starting making phone calls. I called several companies with no luck. I had conversations with some call-center workers, got voice mail for some others, and was writing a text as a last gasp try before giving up for the night. Then my phone rang at 9:06pm.Rocky with Black Diamond called me back after seeing that I had tried to call and hung up when I got voice mail. He was polite, straightforward, obviously not a call-center worker reading off a computer. Mike was at the housed around 10:30. He was professional, fast and asked good questions to figure out what was going on. In less than an hour we had cool air, and Mike was clear the whole time about what he was doing. He let me know what to expect for the price throughout the visit and I found it to be very fair. Will use their service again.read more

I was looking for someone to clean and video a sewer lateral out to the sewer main. I called several companies before calling Black Diamond. One company was weeks out (not a great option when your sewer is backed up) another company quoted $900 just to show up before doing any work (this quote is so high I am convinced they did not understand what I was asking) and a third company who did not answer. I then called Black Diamond. The lady with dispatch was intelligent and helpful. The technician came out within the given time window and was sure to call before showing up. He was friendly and knowledgeable. The issue was resolved quickly and for a price that I felt was very fair especially for after hours work. I would recommend Black Diamond as your first call; they will be my first call next time.read more

We used there air quality testing service about a month ago and their service (customer and product) was outstanding. The gentleman who helped us that day was Eric Shafer, and if there were a gold standard in customer service/interaction, he would be the definition. We are a very clean family and maintain a clean household, meaning we don't wear shoes in the home, I told him this before he entered and he slipped his shoes right off with no argument or complaint. He then proceeded to to set up his equipment, explain what was going on, and give us our options in terms of fixing the issue. He then sent a follow up email with all of our options on there, along with pricing, so we wouldn't forget and could budget what we needed accordingly. This may sound routine and everyone does it, but it was something about his delivery, personality, and understanding/care to help. We will definitely be calling back to Black Diamond for any other needs!read more

Friendly, respectful, trustworthy and affordable. Two thumbs up for Heather, Kyle and Black Diamond. From the moment Heather answered the phone she sounded confident, knowledgeable and compassionate. She also kept me informed about the expected arrival time of Kyle and any financial obligations I may be walking into. You also couldn't have sent a better electrician and person to my house last night. I always felt respected and cared about. Kyle's ability to balance professionalism and humor made me feel better about the situation my family was in. The service he provided was excellent but the real icing on the cake was the value and relationship he built for himself and Black Diamond as a whole. On a 5-star rating scale I would give him a 10 if I could. Thank you!read more

I recently bought an older house that still had its original furnace and AC and they weren't working very well due to age. I got quotes from around 5 companies. I decided I wanted to go with Black Diamond due to previous excellent experiences with them, however their price wasn't the lowest. I asked them to match the lowest price, and they actually gave me a price lower than what I asked them to match. They were able to get me onto their schedule quickly, and did the work well. My new furnace is great! They also gave me a free Nest Smart Thermostat and a 10% discount for agreeing to change my own filters every month. All in all, a great experience. I worked directly with Chris Sullivan, Justin Koontz, and one other technician whose name I didn't get, and they were all professional and kind.read more

Bryan came out to help me problem solve an electrical issue that fried my clothes washer and dryer. I called early in the day and she arrived 2 hours later, SLIGHTLY AHEAD of the scheduled window. He walked me through what he was doing, explaining everything to me along the way. Although he had only planned time for a diagnostic visit, he replaced a subpanel in my basement and rewired an electrical outlet so that my washer and dryer were properly grounded and had a dedicated circuit. He did it on the spot and got it done quickly. Price was very reasonable, service was great, and he really went above and beyond to make sure everything was not only working properly, but allowed for future expansion and looked nice. He didn't try to sell services or products I did not need and there were no surprise charges. I have worked with several electricians in SLC, and recommend Bryan without hesitation. I will definitely use Black Diamond services again in the future.read more

Wonderful customer service and follow through. Their prices are one of the best in the industry I have found. We were selling our home and had the furnace inspected per our contract. Our old unit was found to be defective and very expensive to fix. The knowledgeable staff helped us decide to go with an entirely new unit as fixing the old one would have cost just as much.We were visited by Justin and Lindy the next day who arrived at 8:45 AM and they had the new unit installed and working by 11:30 AM. They were a pleasure to work with and very courteous. Even though we will not be enjoying their great work for long, it was well worth the excellent deal they gave us on the unit. They beat out the competition by $400.00! I would definitely recommend Black Diamond for any service they provide.read more

Arranged a seasonal furnace tune up along with fixing the problem with a leak from condensation drain line. The technician, Rob, discovered a missing rubber cap on the clean out box next to the furnace. That was causing the condensation water to drain from the clean out hole of the box attached to the furnace. After checking the system he verified there was no other issue, he returned to my home a couple days later with replacement caps. It was Friday night at the end of long work week for him. I truly appreciated his extra trip to take care of the problem before the weekend. I've now used both electric and HVAC services of Black Diamond, and every visit has been professional and efficient.read more

From the initial (very detailed) quote by Jared on our 90-year old house, to the friendly dispatchers who always picked up the phone (thanks Rocky), to the AMAZING crew that worked on our house for 4-days (Michael, Bryce + Bryan). Michael was the lead on our job + I felt so lucky we had such a caring, detailed + talented electrician keeping our family safe. The communication during the 4-day job was always open + extremely clear. The team arrived early each day + stayed late until the job was finished. There were no surprises on the final bill + the house left clean + ready to move in. I will always recommend + use Black Diamond. Great company + so appreciate the awesome customer service!!!read more

Very professional and friendly service! They were able to quickly schedule time for me and get the work done the same time as the estimate. The electrician was very polite, listened to my concerns, and helped me find the best solution for my needs. He did a good job and explained what he had done as well as cleaned up afterwards. I had other questions that he took the time to answer. I am very satisfied and would do business with them again. Thank you Kyle and Black Diamond.read more

Look no further! We just finished three days of solid electrical work with Black Diamond including 3 to 4 people on site to install a new 200 amp meter base, a new panel, a sub-panel, recessed lighting and more. This was a significant purchase for us and we were naturally concerned about the outcome; but the professionalism and expertise we received from Jeremy, Brian and Bryce was second to none. It is easy to see how these guys (and Black Diamond) are successful. This is a creative bunch of guys who love what they do and are just generally good people that we enjoyed being around. We received a same-day quote for our project which outlined everything we discussed with Jeremy in person, in our property. It was line-itemed in a way that we could remove some items and do them later if desired, which helps us spread out the work over time. There was no pressure to buy anything. Our favorite part of the experience other than the fantastic new electrical installation, was the attitude and work ethic of the guys working around house – and the final walk-thru with Jeremy who outlined everything they installed, answering all of our questions. He left us with an open invitation to contact him anytime we needed help with anything they installed or questions we have in general, reminding us he's local and ready to help. Black Diamond may not be the least expensive option, they are certainly offering the highest value in my mind and price is not the only consideration when it comes to building my home. Safety, timeliness, ethics and quality were my highest priorities and they delivered all for a fair price; and I feel we have an excellent, local resource we can count on for all of our electrical needs.read more

Michael the electrician was great! He was on time, friendly, courteous, and efficient. He helped point out some future safety concerns with my electrical needs, but did not make me feel pressured to do it immediately. I appreciate the heads up about other issues I may run into down the road. I would definitely recommend Black Diamond Experts if you need electrical work and Michael in particular!read more

Great communication, they were able to come out the same day I called to get my AC running again. It ended up being a silly issue that I could have fixed myself but Chris was incredibly helpful and didn't make me feel dumb for having him come out. He was thorough and very honest. I was so impressed and will be using Black Diamond from now on!read more

This is what a real company should look like. From the person who answered the phone, to Chris who gave me the quote, and Bob who installed my unit. Bob made the install so painless and easy it was amazing. I have been working on getting a new unit installed for weeks. It wasn't until I found Black Diamond that the process become easy and what you should except in the service industry. I highly recommend you reach out to Black Diamond. What a great experience.read more

Black Diamond is the BOMB DOT COM!!! Excellent service, efficiency, timeliness, employees. Everything they do is for the customer! They are CRAZY GOOD. TODD is a ROCKSTAR!!! He's been working with us through our electric and AC issues and he couldn't have done a better job. SEAN, ALAN, and TODD basically had to rewire our entire house in the blazing heat (because our AC had to be turned off). They finished when they said they would and fixed every issue we were having. I LOVE THEM! They seriously need a HUGE raise. I also had some work done on my AC unit the next day to get the capacitor replaced. BOB came and solved the problem in a matter of seconds. He was so friendly and helpful. I will choose Black Diamond every time I need work done on my house. Also, JASON was a pleasure to work with to square away financing and discounts he applied to our project. SUCH A GOOD EXPERIENCE!!!read more

I had several plumbing problems that needed fixing before my open house. I was impressed with the technician that came out and did a thorough job inspecting what needed fixing. Another technician came out the next day and did the work. Later I noticed one of the problems continued. The company responded quickly and came back right away and fixed the problem. They even had to drive to a supply shop for a part but did not charge me for their time or the needed items. Thanks Black Diamond for fixing my water worries so quickly. Very courteous office staff as well!read more

Chris came out to my house in a timely manner. On first inspection he suggested that the problem may be a burned out motor. But he opened up the unit and performed a close inspection. Upon that inspection he found that the problem was a burned out capacitor, an inexpensive part on hand. A few minutes later, the unit was up and running perfectly, as it has been ever sense.What I feared could be an expensive proposition turned out to be a quick, very reasonable effort - well worth the call. Chris is great - professional, knowledgeable, friendly. I'll definitely call back if I encounter any HVAC issues in the future.read more

The entire team at Black Diamond is top notch. From the friendly, professional greeting when you call, to the very knowledgeable estimator, to the expert installation crew, you will not be disappointed.I've utilized Black Diamond twice, once for electric and most recently for plumbing, and it's been a positive experience both times. Both times we ran into some unexpected bumps, but the crews took them in stride and solved those issues without skipping a beat. You'll be extremely happy you called them.read more

I live in an older home that has only dim lighting, and zero lights in the family room. I had Black Diamond come and put six canned lights in. From quote to finish they were friendly and accommodating. The customer service was good and the work went smoothly. They had to cut in to my walls but were very upfront about exactly what they would be doing. They made sure I approved can placement before making the cuts into the ceiling. We have vary much enjoyed the result of their work. The new lighting makes the room feel both bigger and newer.What I paid them was higher than other quotes I had gotten, but I'm happy with the quality work.read more

Great work - but very expensive!!! I have used Black Diamond quite a bit in the last two years as we bough a fixer upper. In this market, it is difficult to find good contractors and I know that when I call them I am always going to get top notch work. That said, I have another electrician that I use when I do not have urgent need that does the same quality work for half the price. I am thrilled with the work they did, but $400 for a switch and two plugs - in my opinion - is very pricey. I give them 5 stars for quality - but I would not describe them as an "exceptional value".read more

When you call a contractor you hope for a few things. 1. Come when you say you will.2. Give an estimate you can rely on - no changes.3. Show up on time and get the job done professionally!That is rarely done, but Black Diamond Electric was perfect on all three stages. They did the job to the highest level with high quality personnel and for the amount they bid. You can't ask for better performance. Use them before anyone else!read more

Having just bought a nearly 100 year old home we needed some estimates for work that we had to have done. Kyle came out to my home (on time) and did a very thorough inspection of everything we needed done (basing it off of our home inspection when we bought the house) and he also noticed some other items that could/needed to be fixed. Comparing his estimate to another local electrician his came in so reasonable and I really liked Kyle himself. He was a straight shooter and made me feel very confident in his knowledge and know-how. We decided to have a few things repaired and installed right away while we have to wait for others. Kyle and Josh came out and did the actual work and again, on time, courteous and lots of know-how. They both were so easy to work with, nice and didn't make me feel like I was getting scammed. They even helped me figure out what work was an immediate need versus what can wait a while longer. I highly recommend these guys for any electric work needing to be done. A+ all around.read more

I had Black Diamond do the re-piping of my water lines for me, and overall, it was a great experience. They were courteous, professional, friendly, and honest. Their pricing was significantly lower than all the other bids I got from the big plumbing companies; they provided a very detailed quote that outlined all the work they'd be doing. And in the end, they did fantastic work. It didn't go 100% smooth, but I've got an old house, and from my own experience, I know it can be tricky to work with. But even when they ran into some hiccups with the work, they honored the original quote, and they rectified the problem to my complete satisfaction. Tip: if you're doing a big project or repair, consider signing up for their Service Partner Plan. It'll save you 10% off all work for a year (plus other perks), so could end up paying for itself just on your big project alone.read more

I truly can not say enough positive things about this company as a whole, specifically the electrical and plumbing departments. I recently bought a house that needed to be brought up to current electrical and plumbing code. A HUGE undertaking, that required a complete re-wire and re-plumb from top to bottom. The job took 5 full days. Jeremy and his team were here every day on time, worked all day long, and then cleaned up before they left each night. Their customer service was only beat out by their work. An incredible job, at a great price, and quality that can't be matched.read more

Today was my first experience with Black Diamond Electric. I had all of my landscape lights go out. I had called another company previously that came out to service my problem a few weeks back.

I thought the price charged was very reasonable and both electricians were very friendly and courteous. What a pleasant surprise to find a company that actually cares about their work and their client. Thank you Black Diamond!read more

Black Diamond rocks. They offered expertise and timely services at every stage during our recent kitchen and bath remodel. We worked with Black Diamond electricians, plumbers and HVAC personnel. Office professionals courteously fielded questions and concerns. The electrical services seem to be the strongest division. Bryce and Bryan went the extra mile to help design the lighting and outlets in our kitchen and bath. The under cabinet LED lights on a dimmer create warm ambient light. The other zones on dimmers create optimal work light as well as soft light. They arrived when scheduled, always asked for clarification and cleaned up. The dry wall installer and framer noticed their work and mentioned they usually don't see such expertise on other remodels. On the final day Bryce and Bryan worked well into the evening to finish up. Overall we are very pleased!read more

The price for the area I am in was very fear compared to other companies jacking up the price because we live in Park City. He installed two 240v power to two separate location with two Z-Wave boxes to control my deicing heat tape on roof. Took the time to go to store to get paint to paint conduit to match house color.

After each appointment, the house was left clean and the performed work was explained to us. Our house was built in the 1950's and has some pretty crazy electrical issues. They were able to troubleshoot problems that the previous owner could never address. It is such a comfort to know that our old house has the newest and best electrical work done and is safe for our young family.read more

Types of Whole House Humidifiers
The three most common types of whole house humidifiers are the bypass whole house humidifier, fan powered humidifier, and steam humidifier.
Bypass Whole House Humidifiers
Bypass humidifiers work by circulating air from the furnace through a water-soaked medium or pad. This moisturized air is then recirculated into the air ducts and dispersed through your home.
Pros
Quieter to run than fan powered models.
Less moving parts, which means there is less that can break.
Cons
Not as efficient as a fan powered humidifier as some of the humidity is lost as the air circulates through the furnace. Some heat is also lost in the process of warming the water vapor.
Requires the furnace to be running to operate.
Fan Powered Whole House Humidifiers
Fan powered humidifiers work the same way as bypass humidifiers but have their own fans to blow the air across the water soaked medium or pad.
Pros
A fan powered humidifier is able to produce a gallon more humidity per day than a bypass humidifier.
Cons
Not as quiet as a bypass humidifier
Steam Humidifiers
Steam humidifiers use an electric heating element to heat a canister of water to generate steam. That steam is shot into the plenum of the furnace and distributed to the rest of the house.
Pros
Steam humidifiers can be more efficient than fan powered or bypass humidifiers because it generates its own heat.
They are cleaner. The use of steam helps to prevent bacteria growth.
Cons
Steam humidifiers cost more initially and to operate than bypass humidifiers.
What to Know About Whole House Humidifiers
Yearly Maintenance
Whole house humidifiers need to be maintained yearly, which most homeowners can do themselves. A simple cleaning and replacement of the humidifier pad are usually recommended to be done yearly.
If you have a steam humidifier we recommend having a technician from Black Diamond Experts perform your yearly maintenance.The canister (steam producing tank) and probes might need to be replaced periodically.
Monitor the Humidity Levels
Many humidifiers come with humidistats that let you know the humidity level in your home. These can also be purchased separately for under $20. It’s important to make sure that you do not over humidifier your home as well. Too much moisture in the air can lead to mold growth. Condensation on the windows or the appearance of fog on windows or glass would be a sign that your humidity level is too high.
If you are interested in a whole home humidifier and want to alleviate your dry indoor air, give the technicians at Black Diamond Experts a call today!
