Air Conditioning

When temperatures rise here in Wisconsin you expect the air conditioning to keep your home cool and comfortable throughout the summer. A good air conditioner not only cools your home, but reduces humidity, filters the air, and does it all without giving you a sky-high electricity bill.

Keeping an air conditioner unit working at its peak during the hottest months means changing filters, checking refrigerant, and making repairs fast. But with our busy lives, who has time for that?

That is why you need a team of experts working with you to ensure your air conditioning remains in tip-top shape for years to come. With one of our affordable heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) maintenance agreement plans, you do not have to wonder if the filters have been changed or if the parts are wearing out. The only thing you need to think about is how nice and cool your Milwaukee home will feel when you walk in the front door.

Air Ducts

The newest and most efficient air conditioning system in the world will not heat or cool your home properly if the air duct system is in poor condition. The ductwork is responsible for taking conditioned air and distributing it throughout your Milwaukee home and into each room.

The duct system needs to be kept in good condition so your home is comfortable and temperatures are consistent year-round. The signs of poorly maintained heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) ductwork are obvious: hot and cold spots throughout the house, noisy air vents, or even air ducts that sweat and drip.

The ductwork in your home cannot be ignored. Our experts at Interstate Heating Co. have years of experience with duct cleaning, air vent installation, and even the design and repair of entire ductsystems. Utility costs in Wisconsin continue to rise and studies show residential electric bills are reduced when air ducts are cleaned, sealed, and repaired.

You and your family deserve a comfortable home with an efficient and quiet air conditioning system. Call us at 262-246-4772 to start seeing the improvements to your heating and air conditioning system our services bring. Request air duct service online today.

Commercial Services

Having reliable commercial heating and cooling is important to a company’s bottom line. It takes a special service provider to understand the unique needs of a commercial operation. Our professionals at Interstate Heating Co. will listen carefully to your organization’s particular situation and make recommendations that fit your business, time frame, and budget.

Boilers

Waking up to a cozy warm house is one of winter’s little pleasures. Rolling out of bed and walking to the bathroom without freezing your toes gets the morning off to a good start. But when the alarm goes off and you can see your breath in the icy bedroom air, you know it is not going to be a good day in Milwaukee.

A lot of us in Wisconsin use gas boilers to heat our homes and small offices. Overall, boilers last for many years, quietly keeping us warm and requiring little maintenance. But they do require some maintenance to remain efficient and to not break down when we need them most. 

With your central boiler system, whether a water boiler or steam boiler, you should have one of our preventative maintenance agreement plans that includes a seasonal checkup, cleaning and tuning, and an end of the year shutdown.

Call Interstate Heating Co. at 262-246-4772 to let us help you with your boiler needs. With us on your team, every morning will be a warm start to your day. Request boiler service online today.

Ductless Systems

There are some rooms in your Milwaukee home that are never comfortable. Maybe it is the playroom at the end of the hall or the sunroom with all the big windows. No matter how you adjust the thermostat, it just never feels right. You might think adding a new air conditioning unit just for that room is too expensive or disruptive.

In most cases, you might be right, but a ductless system , sometimes called a mini split system, lets you add a dedicated unit to one room without the expense and disruption of ducted systems.

A ductless mini split surface mounts on the wall without the need for ductwork and vents cut into the walls. The wall-mounted unit blows warm or cool air into the room and draws it back in through one piece of equipment. The outdoor condensing unit is small and works quietly sitting outside the house.

Almost everyone in Wisconsin has a room that could feel better with its own ductless unit. Our heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) team at Interstate Heating Co. can help, so call us at 262-246-4772. We can estimate what ductless system is right for you.

Furnaces

If you have an older home in Wisconsin each winter, you probably deal with high utility bills, inconsistent heating, and cold rooms. Sometimes it may be so uncomfortable you do not even want to stay home. Older furnace are also notorious for breaking down or creating a smoky, burning smell in your Milwaukee home. In some cases, a broken gas furnace can release harmful carbon monoxide putting your family at risk.

Heater repair can be expensive, and selecting a new furnace can be difficult especially if you do not know or trust the contractor. At Interstate Heating Co., our first priority is to get you warm again and to help you make an informed choice when it is time to buy a new heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system.

Heat Pumps

The most common residential heating and cooling units installed in Wisconsin are heat pumps. Heat pumps are popular because they are easy to install, simple to operate, and are very efficient especially in the winter when the heat pump works without gas, oil, or electric strip heat.

Heat pumps have made tremendous advances in recent years. Engineers have introduced mini split heat pumps that are small enough to cool one room and operate at high efficiencies. The best heat pumps on the market provide low-cost heating and cooling to Milwaukee modern homes and small offices. All heat pumps, no matter how new or advanced, still need routine maintenance and repair. That is where Interstate Heating Co. can help.

If your heat pump is not running as efficiently as it used to, or maybe it is time for a new system, we can show you the best heat pump system for your home. Call us at 262-246-4772 and meet with one of our highly trained heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) team members. Request heat pump service online today.

Indoor Air Quality

Everyone needs a breath of fresh air from time to time. In today’s world of super efficient, well-insulated buildings, there may be even a greater need. Although many advantages of modern construction exist, potentially poor indoor air quality can be one disadvantage. Our team at Interstate Heating Co. is dedicated to ensuring our customers have cleaner indoor air by providing testing and remediation services in Milwaukee.

Where do indoor air quality problems originate? The issue can vary from home to home, but smoking, pets, dust mites, and chemicals released from cleaning products or new construction can all contribute to poor indoor air quality.

Although many of us live with these and other irritants around us each day, long-term exposure may result in physical discomfort or significant health problems. Some Wisconsin homeowners may experience symptoms including fatigue, allergies and asthma, flu-like systems, or respiratory issues. Certain air pollutants such as carbon monoxide from faulty heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems can cause serious consequences or even death.

Our trained professionals can provide a thorough testing of your indoor air quality as well as suggest the best remediation actions for your home. Simple things like air filters, cleaning air ducts, or installing air purification systems may help improve your air quality a great deal.

If you are ready to check your indoor air quality, call Interstate Heating Co. at 262-246-4772. Our professionals can provide all the needed information for you to make a wise decision. Request indoor air quality service online today.

Maintenance

It’s always easier to boost a broken furnace or air conditioner to the top of your priority list, but it can be a stressful scenario to find yourself in, especially during extreme weather. One way to minimize or potentially eliminate this situation is to invest in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) maintenance.

Turn to our trained professionals at Interstate Heating Co. a couple times a year for a complete
inspection, maintenance, and cleaning of your HVAC system for your Milwaukee home. Regular HVAC maintenance can result in many benefits for the homeowner including:

• More efficient, better-performing heating and air conditioning systems
• Reduced energy bills
• Elimination or reduction of emergency repairs
• Extended life span of expensive HVAC equipment

When you call our team for HVAC maintenance services, you will receive a comprehensive inspection and tune-up. Our trained team will check items such as your thermostat, system controls, and fuel line connections as well as clean your blower and condenser coils. We will tighten electrical connections, lubricate appropriate parts, and inspect pressure where needed as well.

Radiant Floors

One thing many people dread when getting out of bed on a cold winter morning is stepping onto an icy cold floor. If you choose to install radiant floor heating in your Wisconsin home, you will no longer need to face that prospect.

Radiant floor heating can be electric-based or water-based, but the idea of both is the same. A network under the floors of your home heats up, providing the warmth your entire house requires. Our team at Interstate Heating Co. is well-versed in radiant floor heating systems and can share more details.

Radiant floor heating provides many advantages over conventional heating systems. This system is very energy efficient because the network under your floors only needs to be heated to about 84 degrees Fahrenheit in order to provide a comfortable, even room temperature.

Conventional radiators need to run at around 150 degrees to bring the surrounding room to a comfortable temperature. These systems are easy to run and maintain and give you more design freedom in your Milwaukee home.

Although energy costs may be reduced, the installation cost of radiant floor heating may be higher than conventional heating systems. In addition, installation time can be longer since the system must be installed under your home’s flooring. In some homes, the height of the floor can be an issue as well.

If you are ready to learn more about radiant floor heating, call Interstate Heating Co. at 262-246-4772. Our professionals can share detailed features, costs, and installation data. Request radiant floor heating service online today.

Zone Control Systems

Most Milwaukee homes having a conventional heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system have one thermostat controlling the temperature for the entire home. Over the years, many attempts have been made to control the temperature in particular rooms to reduce energy consumption and costs. For example, some people may close vents in unused rooms or program a thermostat to different temperatures throughout a 24-hour period.

Today, zone control systems are available to provide you with even more control over the temperatures in certain areas of your home. For example, if you want to only heat your upstairs bedrooms in your Wisconsin home on cold winter nights, you can increase the temperature in that zone while decreasing it in the downstairs zone.

Our Interstate Heating Co. professionals can help you install a zone control system, which includes motorized dampers that can open and close based on programmed instructions. Each zone of your home has its own thermostat, allowing you to customize temperatures within the zones. The thermostats and dampers are then connected to the central HVAC system.

When one thermostat calls the central system for heat, for example, the automated dampers will open and close appropriately before the furnace fires up. If other zones call for heat during this period, those dampers will open as well. As soon as all thermostats have reached the desired temperatures, the HVAC system will shut off. This makes for high efficiency and lower energy costs.
