Air Conditioning and Heat Pumps for Blackstone Houses
One Blackstone home in five predates 1940, and many have baseboard heat with no ducts, so ductless heat pumps are common.
Adding or Replacing Cooling
A single wall unit cools one room, and a multi zone unit can feed several. We measure each room, check the panel, and list equipment, wiring and permit in writing.
- Single and multi zone splits
- Central AC on existing ducts
- Compact ducted air handlers
- Hyper-Heat models for cold snaps
- Cooling load for each room
- Electrical and building permits
When the AC Stops Working
Most AC breakdowns are a capacitor, contactor, fan motor, clogged drain or dirty coil. We test each, then price the repair, or tell you if replacing makes more sense.
- Indoor unit blowing warm air
- Outdoor fan not turning
- Ice on the copper lines
- Water dripping from wall unit
- Blinking mini split error lights
- Breakers tripping at AC startup
Yearly Cooling Service
On a July visit in Blackstone, a Mitsubishi ductless outdoor coil was matted with fluff. After cleaning, the wall unit put out air in the upper 40s.
- Washable filters cleaned
- Outdoor coil rinsed clean
- Cooling output measured
- Wiring and connections checked
- Drain lines tested
- Blower wheel condition noted

Keeping Blackstone Houses Warm on Any Fuel
Oil heats 53 percent of Blackstone homes and gas about 31 percent, and we also service propane, electric heat and heat pumps.
Picking the Replacement for an Old Boiler
Replace an old oil boiler with oil, gas where a main reaches your street, or heat pumps. Many owners keep the boiler as backup and add heat pumps first.
- Oil and gas baseboard boilers
- Two stage gas furnaces
- Old oil tank hauled away
- Ducted and ductless heat pumps
- Indirect water heaters off boiler
- Permits and old equipment disposal
Fixing a Furnace or Boiler
No heat calls are answered at any hour all season, since a cold house can freeze pipes within hours. You hear what failed and the cost before parts go in.
- Oil burners in safety lockout
- No fire after running dry
- Gas furnaces blowing cold air
- Boilers that keep losing pressure
- Stuck zone valves, dead circulators
- Thermostats that lost settings
Tune-Ups Before the Heating Season
We clean oil burners, change the nozzle and filter, and set the flame with an analyzer. Gas systems get burner, ignition and vent checks, plus a carbon monoxide reading.
- Combustion test with a printout
- Carbon monoxide reading
- Heat exchanger look over
- Fresh nozzle and oil filter
- Ignition and limit controls tested
- Chimney and vent pipe checked
Blackstone furnace or boiler quit?
Call any time for no heat. Estimates for a replacement system cost nothing.
Blackstone Plumbing, Town Water or Private Well
Town water from seven wells serves about 65 percent of Blackstone; our plumbers work on town water and private wells alike.
Water Heaters, Tank and Tankless
Rusty water, a rumbling tank or a basement puddle means the heater is failing. In an oil heated home, an indirect tank off the boiler is often the simplest swap.
- Like for like tank swaps
- Tankless on gas or propane
- Boiler-run indirect tanks
- Heat pump water heater installs
- Expansion tanks and relief valves
- Yearly flush to clear sediment
Fixtures and Remodels
We replace faucets, toilets, shower valves and sinks, and handle remodel rough-in and finish. Permit work is filed with the town, and we meet the plumbing inspector.
- Worn kitchen faucets and sinks
- Toilet repairs and replacements
- Shower valves and tub spouts
- Fridge and dishwasher supply lines
- Remodel rough-in and finish
- Drain clogs and pipe leaks

Wiring and Indoor Air for Blackstone Homes
A heat pump needs its own circuit, so our licensed electricians check the panel and price the wiring in the same quote.
When the Breaker Box Runs Out of Room
Older Blackstone homes often have 100 amp service that fills fast with heat pumps or an EV charger. We upgrade it and file the permit for the town electrical inspector.
- 100 to 200 amp upgrades
- Heat pump circuits and disconnects
- Garage EV charger circuits
- Lighting, switches and outlets
- Repairs of older wiring
- Permits and town inspection
Breathing Easier Indoors
River valley basements can run damp in summer, so we install self draining dehumidifiers, humidifiers and fresh air ventilation. A higher grade filter can trap finer dust if your system can handle it.
- Fine dust and media filters
- UV lamps by indoor coil
- Steam or bypass humidifiers
- Dehumidifiers with condensate pumps
- Balanced fresh air ventilators
- Attic and basement duct sealing
Thinking about heat pumps?
We price the equipment and electrical work together, so there are no surprises.
