Home heating services

Furnace repair

The furnace runs and the rooms stay cool, it shuts off and starts again, or it makes a sound it never used to. Tell us what you notice and we will get a furnace technician lined up.

Emergency heating repair

A cold house on a bitter night, a boiler leaking water, or a system that quit entirely. Dialing the number costs nothing, and one call sets a technician visit in motion.

Boiler and radiator repair

Steam and hot-water systems alike. Radiators that stay cold, pipes that bang and water under the boiler are jobs for a technician.

Furnace replacement and installation

Sometimes the answer is a new furnace. A technician makes that recommendation after examining yours, and installation is part of the service.

Heat pump repair and installation

A heat pump that falls behind in the cold, ices up outside or will not start. New installations are covered too, and the call is free.

Heating tune-ups and maintenance

A technician visit for furnaces, boilers and heat pumps while they still work, so worn parts get noticed. Mention it on the call.

Ductless mini-split heating

Ductless units mount on the wall and heat one room, an addition or a space the ducts never reached. New installs and existing units are both covered, and dialing is free.

Older homes in Sault Ste. Marie and Escanaba

About 42% of the housing units in Sault Ste. Marie were built before 1950, and in Escanaba the figure is about 49%. Before 1980, the numbers are about 71% and about 88%.

Statewide, about 75% of Michigan homes heat with utility gas, 12% with electricity and 9% with propane. In Sault Ste. Marie itself, about 75% use utility gas and 22% electricity.

A different gas utility in each town

The Michigan Public Service Commission’s service-area map puts downtown Sault Ste. Marie in DTE Gas territory, and lists Escanaba there too. Houghton, Calumet and Baraga are listed for SEMCO. Menominee is listed for Upper Michigan Energy Resources Corporation (UMERC) and Wisconsin Public Service (WPS), and Bessemer for Xcel Energy (Northern States Power-Wisconsin, NSP-W).

Each town page below names its own utility.

Who may work on heating equipment

Michigan’s Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs (LARA) requires a mechanical contractor license with the right classification to install, alter or service heating equipment. The classifications include heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment, hydronic heating and heating service. You can ask which one covers your furnace or boiler, and you can ask for the license.

Except for minor parts, mechanical work needs a permit before it starts. A mechanical contractor is responsible for the permit on work done for an owner.

Steam boiler permits go through a hydronic contractor

For a low-pressure steam or vapor boiler (15 pounds per square inch or less) in a private home or an apartment house of fewer than six families, Michigan says the permit must be secured by a licensed mechanical contractor with the hydronic heating and cooling and process piping classifications. Call us about a steam boiler and we will arrange a technician.

Our process

01

A free call starts it

Your town and the heat problem are what we need first. The call is free, and nothing obliges you to go further.

02

A technician finds the cause

A technician examines the system and explains what is wrong in plain words.

03

Repair or replacement

Based on what the technician finds, repair or replacement gets recommended for your house. The decision stays with you.

Gas smell or a carbon monoxide alarm

Gas in the air, or a carbon monoxide alarm that has gone off, sends the household outside. From outside, call 911 and then the gas utility.

Once 911 and the utility have been called, call us to arrange the heating repair afterward.
