Jeff Salava writes on the company website that he owns Jeff's K1 Heating, has been in the business since 1991 and has stayed small so he can respond to customers personally. On Google the company shows 4.3 stars from 12 ratings, and the Better Business Bureau gives it an A+. A 2026 customer said Jeff got the heaters working after the oil company missed a delivery and the tank ran out. A 2025 customer wrote that a Monitor 41 was replaced with a new Toyotomi model at a fair price. A 2025 customer said Jeff had serviced their heater twice, called him honest and said they drove an hour and a half one way for the service. A 2023 reviewer wrote that Jeff knew his stuff when it came to portable kerosene heaters. A 2025 customer described a Toyotomi heater Jeff had installed about two years earlier: after a lightning strike, the repair appointment was more than three weeks out, a call came 20 minutes after the appointment time, then word that the part was on back order and the next appointment was a month away. That 2025 customer also said a valve left open at the original install leaked kerosene into the house and onto the carpet. A 2025 reviewer said a friend had to pay even though the work was not done.
Typical your area range for this kind of work, from regional averages — not a quote from Jeff's K-1 Heating LLC. Use it to sanity-check bids, then get the real number in writing.

Jeff was knowledgeable, patient, kind and got my heaters working after the oil company missed a delivery and our tank ran out. 5 stars all the way. Thanks again Jeff for your help!
Called for service repair on a toyotomi heater that was installed by Jeff about 2 years ago.Unit had a lighting strike and needed the mother board replaced. Scheduled an appointment which was more than 3 weeks away. On appointment day , got a call 20 minutes after appointment time and was told he was on an emergency call and had to go to the shop for part(if he had it ) received a second call from them saying the part was on back order and another appointment wasn't available for another month.When the unit was originally installed Jeff left a valve open and keroscene was leaking into my house and on my carpet.Very poor servious and would not recomend this company
Make sure you pay even if the work is not done. My friend suffering with uterine cancer had to pay even though work was not done.
Replaced Monitor 41 with new Toyotomi model. Good Products and Good work at a fair price.
Jeff has serviced my keep heater twice now and has always been super honest. He does a great job at a fair price and knows these heaters inside and out. Paula at the front desk is beyond nice and helpful. I drive an hour and a half one way to have him service my heater and worth the drive. I would highly recommend Jeff's K1.
