Our headquarters at 135 Spook Lane sits just off Park Road in Fleetwood, the borough where Art Smith founded the company in May 2011. Fleetwood is a tight-knit community of about 4,000 residents in northeastern Berks County, surrounded by Richmond and Maidencreek Townships. We grew up working on heating and cooling systems in this area, and most of our long-time customers know us by name. When you call us for a Fleetwood service appointment, you are not getting a dispatched technician from a regional call center - you are getting Art, Daniel, or one of the technicians we have personally trained.
Because Fleetwood is our base of operations, response time on local service calls is faster here than anywhere else in our service area. We can usually be on-site for a no-heat or no-cool emergency in Fleetwood within an hour during business hours, and our technicians know every street in the borough by memory. Whether you live near Fleetwood Area High School, in the older sections off Main Street, in newer construction along Route 222, or out toward Walnuttown, we know how to get to you fast.
Local roots also mean we know which contractors built which neighborhoods, which HVAC equipment was popular in different construction eras, and which systems are likely to be reaching end of life in any given year. That historical knowledge translates into faster diagnosis, more accurate replacement recommendations, and fewer surprises during installation.
Fleetwood's housing stock spans more than 150 years of construction, from Victorian-era twins downtown to contemporary single-family homes in newer subdivisions. We work in all of them.
Houses built before 1950 in the borough core typically have boiler heat with cast iron radiators, no original air conditioning, and limited mechanical room space. We retrofit central air using high-velocity systems where ductwork is feasible, but more often we recommend ductless mini-splits from Fujitsu (we are a Fujitsu Elite Contractor) that add cooling and supplemental heat without disrupting historic interiors. Boiler service for these homes is one of our specialties - we install Weil-McLain replacement boilers and maintain existing systems with original cast iron radiators.
The 1960s and 1970s brought ranch and split-level construction to Fleetwood with original oil-fired forced-air systems that have mostly been converted to natural gas over the years. We frequently replace 1980s-vintage gas furnaces in these homes with modern AirEase or Lennox high-efficiency units, often pairing them with new central air conditioning since the original AC equipment is usually well past its service life.
Subdivisions built since the late 1990s typically came with builder-grade gas furnaces and air conditioners that are now 20-25 years old and ready for replacement. Newer construction has the benefit of better-designed ductwork and tighter envelopes, which means modern variable-speed equipment performs especially well in these homes.
The brands we sell are the brands we have stood behind for years. We do not chase the lowest cost equipment of the moment because we are the ones who get the warranty calls when things go wrong, and we want to limit those calls to as few as possible.
For service calls and repairs, we work on every major HVAC brand regardless of who originally installed the equipment. The brand list above describes what we install when a customer needs a new system - it does not limit who we can repair.
Our preventative maintenance plan is designed for Fleetwood homeowners who would rather catch HVAC problems during a scheduled visit than discover them on a 95-degree afternoon or a 10-degree night. Plan members get spring AC tune-ups, fall heating tune-ups, priority scheduling during peak demand periods, and a discount on parts and labor when repairs are needed.
For emergencies outside business hours, we offer after-hours service for plan members and existing customers. Contact us to discuss enrollment or to schedule a service appointment, or call (610) 780-9350 directly.
