Furnace Installation & Replacement
Upgrading your furnace is a smart move if your current system is over 15 years old, underperforming, or costing too much in repairs and energy. Our installation process is built around precision:
- System sizing: We use Manual J load calculations to ensure correct BTU output.
- Duct inspection: We evaluate airflow, return sizing, and static pressure.
- High-efficiency options: We offer ENERGY STAR®-rated models with AFUE ratings up to 98%.
- Permitting and code compliance: We handle all necessary permits for Frederick County.
- Commissioning and testing: Every install ends with a performance check and homeowner walkthrough.
We install both gas and electric furnaces from brands like Carrier, Trane, Goodman, and Lennox. Whether you’re replacing an existing unit or converting from baseboard or radiant heat, we tailor the system to your home’s needs.
Furnace Repair
When your furnace isn’t heating properly—or at all—you need quick, reliable service. We repair all makes and models, and we’re equipped to diagnose problems on the first visit. Common repair issues include:
- Faulty ignitors or flame sensors
- Failed blower motors or belts
- Cracked heat exchangers (safety issue)
- Dirty or clogged burners
- Faulty limit switches or control boards
No heat? Strange noises? Short cycling? We’ll get to the root of it fast, explain the issue clearly, and give you a flat-rate quote before any work begins.
Furnace Maintenance
Regular furnace tune-ups keep your system safe, efficient, and dependable. We recommend annual maintenance each fall to prepare for Frederick’s colder months. Our tune-ups include:
- Checking burners, flame sensor, and gas pressure
- Inspecting the heat exchanger for cracks or corrosion
- Testing safety switches and electrical components
- Cleaning air intake, blower compartment, and drain lines
- Verifying airflow, thermostat accuracy, and system cycling
Ask us about our maintenance agreements to save on annual service while extending your system’s lifespan.
