Furnace Repair and Installation in Battle Ground, IN
Battle Ground winters bring hard freezes and bitter wind across the open fields north of town. A furnace that quits in January needs a fast, correct fix.
Our technicians provide furnace repair on every make and model of gas furnace. These are the problems we fix most often:
- Igniter failures that keep the burners from lighting
- Dirty flame sensors that cause short cycling
- Blower motor problems that weaken airflow
- Thermostat malfunctions that disrupt heating cycles
- Venting issues that trigger safety shutoffs
We stock common furnace parts on our service vehicles, so most repairs are finished the same day, and carbon monoxide testing and venting verification are part of every furnace service call. When a furnace is near the end of its 15- to 20-year life, or a repair would cost close to half the price of a new unit, we'll give you an honest comparison of repair versus furnace replacement.
New Armstrong Air gas furnaces range from an affordable 80% AFUE chimney-vented model, a good fit for many older homes, to a modulating furnace up to 97% AFUE that adjusts its output to even out temperature swings. We install furnaces for natural gas and, for rural properties, propane, and size every one from a heat loss calculation of your home. We provide free estimates with more than one option, and financing is available for qualified applicants.
Heat Pumps and Dual Fuel Systems
A heat pump heats and cools your home with one system and delivers 200 to 300 percent heating efficiency. Modern heat pumps keep heating efficiently down to about -5°F, and for the coldest nights a dual fuel system pairs the heat pump with a gas furnace that takes over automatically. Homes outside town that heat with propane often see the biggest savings, because the heat pump avoids burning propane on most winter days.
We size every heat pump installation from a load calculation of your home and install Armstrong Air heat pumps up to 22 SEER. If your current system is struggling, our heat pump repair team diagnoses refrigerant leaks, frozen coils, reversing valve problems and compressor failures on all brands.
Air Conditioning Repair and Replacement
Humid Indiana summers put a heavy load on central air, especially in older homes with limited insulation. The usual culprits when an AC stops keeping up are low refrigerant from a slow leak, dirty filters, frozen evaporator coils, failed capacitors, clogged condensate drains and thermostat problems. When your AC stops cooling, our air conditioner repair technicians check refrigerant levels, coils, capacitors, condensate drains and thermostats to find the real cause, and you'll know the price before any work begins. When it's time for a new system, every AC installation starts with a load calculation and ends with refrigerant charging, airflow balancing and full system testing.
Geothermal Systems for Battle Ground Acreage
Larger lots and country properties around Battle Ground often have the open ground a horizontal geothermal loop needs, and a horizontal loop usually costs less to install than vertical boring. Smaller lots in town can use a vertical loop instead. A GeoComfort geothermal heating and cooling system uses the earth's steady underground temperature, burns no fuel, runs without a noisy outdoor unit and typically provides 20 to 24 years of reliable comfort. We'll survey your property and run a detailed energy analysis before recommending a loop design. Already have geothermal? We provide geothermal repair and tune-ups for all makes and models.
Ductless Mini-Splits for Historic Homes and Additions
Many of the older homes in Battle Ground were built long before central air. Ductless mini-splits add efficient heating and cooling through a 3-inch wall penetration, so you don't have to cut into original walls and trim to run ductwork. They also work well for additions, finished basements, bonus rooms over the garage and workshops, with individual temperature control in each zone.
Mini-Split vs. Central Air
Central air gives whole-home comfort from one system with the equipment out of sight, and it costs less per room when the ductwork is already there. A mini-split avoids the energy lost in ductwork, lets you set each room on its own, and runs far more quietly than a window unit. For many homes, the best answer is central heating and cooling for the main house plus a mini-split for the room that never keeps up.
Seasonal Maintenance for Battle Ground Homes
Our maintenance agreement covers a spring cooling visit and a fall heating visit. In spring we clean the evaporator and condenser coils, check refrigerant levels and electrical connections, clear the condensate drain and calibrate the thermostat. In fall we inspect the furnace or heat pump and ductwork, replace the filter, clean the blower motor, burners and ignition system, and examine the heat exchanger for damage. Country properties see more dust than homes in town, which makes those visits even more valuable. Members also get priority service and repair discounts.
Water Heaters, Boilers and Indoor Air Quality
We repair and replace gas and electric tank water heaters and install Rinnai tankless water heaters for endless hot water. For homes heated by radiators or baseboard, we provide boiler repair and tune-ups for cast iron and condensing boilers. And when field dust and pollen find their way inside during planting and harvest, our indoor air quality solutions, from high-efficiency filtration to whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers, help your family breathe easier.
