New England weather doesn’t cut you any slack. One week it’s below freezing, the next it’s muggy and hot. That’s why we handle heating and cooling all year long – tune-ups before the season starts, quick repairs when something breaks, and full diagnostics when the system just isn’t keeping up.
We work on furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, central air, and ductless systems. Regular maintenance helps you avoid surprise breakdowns and keeps energy bills under control. And if something does go wrong, we don’t just patch it – we find the real cause and fix it right.
What HVAC Services Do You Offer Most Often?
Every home is different, but the same types of service calls come up again and again. From annual maintenance to emergency repairs, here are the jobs we handle most often across Worcester County.
Annual maintenance
A yearly service visit keeps your system safe and steady. We clean burners and coils, check the heat exchanger, test safety controls, confirm airflow, and make sure the thermostat is reading correctly. You’ll get a simple rundown of what we did and anything we think needs attention.
Diagnostics
When the system isn’t heating or cooling the way it should, we track it down. That means checking controls, sensors, electrical connections, and fuel or refrigerant levels. We’ll explain what’s wrong, why it happened, and the best way to fix it.
Parts and hard-to-find items
Older equipment can be tricky. If a part is worn out or hard to source, we’ll find the right replacement and give you an honest timeline. If a safe temporary fix is possible, we’ll tell you that too so you’re not left without heating or cooling.
Furnace repair
From no-heat calls to burners that keep shutting down, we’ve seen it all. We test the ignition system, check fuel supply, and make sure air is moving the way it should. Once it’s fixed, the furnace should heat evenly and run without constant restarts.
AC and heat pump repair
Warm air blowing, coils icing over, or the unit short cycling — these are common summer headaches. We inspect the outdoor unit, coils, and blower, set the charge correctly, and run the system through a full cycle to make sure it cools the way it should.
Boiler repair
If your baseboards or radiators aren’t heating evenly, or the system is making noise, we can help. We service pumps, zone valves, expansion tanks, and safety components. The goal is steady, quiet heat that reaches every room.
When Should You Call for HVAC Service?
Don’t wait until the system quits completely. If it’s struggling to keep the house comfortable, making odd noises, or it’s been more than a year since anyone looked at it, that’s the time to call. A quick service visit can catch small problems early and keep them from turning into bigger, more expensive ones.
FAQs
For most homes in the Milford and Worcester County area, a routine service call or repair lands between $150 and $450. Common repairs like replacing a capacitor, ignitor, or sensor usually fall in the $300–$400 range. Bigger issues, like a failed compressor or cracked heat exchanger, can climb into the $1,000–$2,000+ range. A seasonal tune-up is less, usually $100–$250, and is a smart way to catch problems before they get expensive.
At least once a year. Twice a year is even better if you use the same system for both heating and cooling. Around here, most homeowners schedule a fall furnace or boiler tune-up and a spring AC or heat pump check. Regular service cuts down on surprise breakdowns and helps keep your energy bills steady.
A real tune-up takes time and covers a lot more than just changing a filter. We clean burners and coils, test safety controls, check ignition, inspect the heat exchanger on furnaces and boilers, verify airflow, check refrigerant levels on AC and heat pumps, and run the system through a cycle to confirm it’s working the way it should. Done right, it usually takes 45–90 minutes depending on the system.
If your furnace, boiler, or AC is under 10 years old and the repair is minor, repairing usually makes sense. Once a system hits 12–20 years old, or you’re facing repeated breakdowns, replacement often becomes the smarter move. A good rule of thumb: if the repair is more than about a third of the cost of a new unit, it’s worth looking at replacement. Many Worcester County homeowners also choose to replace when rebates make a new high-efficiency heat pump or furnace more affordable.
