How do you install a new furnace without damaging my older home's character?

Our philosophy is to work with your home, not against it. We use existing pathways for lines and vents whenever possible and employ minimally invasive techniques. Our technicians protect all surfaces and ensure the final installation is clean and discreet.

My current furnace is in the middle of my basement. Can a new one be moved?

Yes, in most cases. A modern high-efficiency furnace offers flexible venting options (through a side wall instead of a chimney), which often allows us to relocate the unit to a more convenient, space-saving location in your basement or utility area.

Is it possible to add air conditioning to my home that only has radiator heat?

Absolutely. The best solution is often a high-velocity or ductless mini-split system. These systems require very little modification to your home and are perfect for adding modern AC to historic properties without existing ductwork.

Are new furnaces safer than the old one in my home?

Yes, significantly. New furnaces have advanced safety features like electronic ignition (no pilot light), flame sensors, and automatic gas shut-off valves that make them far safer than the furnaces built decades ago.
