Frequently Asked Questions

My furnace in Auburn keeps turning on and off quickly (short cycling). Can you fix it, or will I need a full replacement?

We can absolutely diagnose and fix short-cycling furnaces, a common issue in our area. Often, it's caused by a dirty air filter, faulty flame sensor, or incorrect thermostat setting—all repairable. Our HVAC technicians will perform a thorough inspection to identify the root cause. If your system is very old or severely damaged, we'll discuss replacement options for a more efficient and reliable system, but we always aim for the most cost-effective repair first.

I have ice building up on my outdoor AC unit. Is this an emergency, and can you repair it during a kitchen remodel?

Ice buildup is a sign of a problem, like low refrigerant or airflow issues, and should be addressed to prevent further damage. Yes, we can schedule an HVAC repair promptly. As a full-service contractor, we can efficiently coordinate this repair with an ongoing project like your kitchen remodel. This integrated approach minimizes disruption, ensuring your home's comfort systems are working perfectly as we upgrade your living spaces.

We're planning a home addition in Auburn. How can you ensure our new HVAC system won't have the common problems you see locally?

Excellent question. For any new construction or addition, we perform a Manual J load calculation to correctly size your HVAC system, preventing short-cycling and inefficiency from an oversized unit. We ensure proper ductwork design and installation for optimal airflow, a key factor in preventing ice buildup. By building and installing the system ourselves, we guarantee it's tailored to Maine's climate and your home's specific layout for long-term reliability and comfort.
