If your heating and/or air conditioning systems are more than 10 years old, it may well be time to replace them. Likewise if you are facing an expensive repair.

Quality Begins with Professional Design…even when you are replacing your existing system.
Unfortunately, some contractors size replacement components based on the old system’s capacity rather than completing a professional design. Your needs may well have changed or the original contractor may have failed to size the system correctly to begin with. Under-sized or over-sized, you’ll spend more to stay comfortable year-round. Now you can have the experts at Boer Brothers Heating and Cooling complete a professional load calculation and system design.

Systems come in many capacities and configurations. A contractor must select the right equipment based on a thorough understanding of your needs and the conditions of your property. We will help you select the proper equipment for your building or business based on our thourough process and our expertise with high efficiency systems. Repairing and replacing your duct work, grills and registers are also critical to the operating efficiency of your new system and must not be ignored.
