Cooling Plans for Mendon Houses of Every Age
Nearly half of Mendon homes were built between 1980 and 1999, so many still have original ducts and cooling equipment.
Installing New Central Air or Heat Pumps
This June we priced a new outdoor AC unit for a Mendon home. The old one was about 27 years old, ran on a refrigerant no longer made, and was falling apart.
- New condensers with matching coils
- Ductless mini splits for boilers
- High velocity for older houses
- Heat pumps that save oil
- Load math for each room
- Permits filed for you
Repairing Air Conditioning in Mendon
Mendon is about 17 minutes from our Franklin shop. The technician checks the capacitor, contactor, refrigerant and drain, then tells you the cost before any repair.
- Vents blowing warm air
- Ice on the suction line
- Water pooling near indoor unit
- Condenser hums, fan stays still
- Short cycles and weak airflow
- AC, heat pumps, mini splits
Spring AC Service Visits
Book before Memorial Day so there is time to order parts. Attic air handlers get extra attention, since a clogged drain up there can leak into the ceiling.
- Coils rinsed on both units
- Pressures read on the gauges
- Capacitor and contactor checked running
- Drain line flushed
- Thermostat checked
- Written service report

Oil, Propane and Electric Heat Across Mendon
About 74 percent of Mendon homes burn fuel oil, 10 percent propane and only 5 percent utility gas, Census figures show.
Replacing a Boiler, Furnace or Heat Pump
Many Mendon homes have zoned hot water heat, some feeding air handlers, so a new system must fit existing piping. We price oil, propane and heat pump options together.
- Oil boilers for baseboard heat
- Propane boilers and furnaces
- Hydro-air systems
- Heat pumps for Mendon winters
- Indirect water heaters
- Removal and permits handled
Oil and Propane Heating Repair
No heat calls are answered around the clock, since a January outage can freeze pipes fast. On oil, the usual culprits are the nozzle, filter, cad cell or ignition.
- Burner locked out on reset
- No heat, day or night
- Boiler leaking or losing pressure
- Zone valve or circulator failures
- No hot water from tank
- Thermostat and wiring problems
Yearly Oil Burner and Boiler Cleaning
Each yearly cleaning includes a new nozzle, filter and strainer and a test of how cleanly it burns. This October a Mendon boiler finished at 88.1 percent efficiency with a safe carbon monoxide reading.
- Combustion efficiency measured
- Carbon monoxide reading taken
- Flue passages brushed and vacuumed
- New nozzle, filter and strainer
- Electrodes cleaned and set
- Boiler safety shutoffs tested

Plumbing for Mendon Homes on Wells and Septic
Most Mendon homes run on private wells and septic, with public water only near Route 140 and Route 16.
Tank, Tankless and Indirect Water Heaters
With an oil boiler, hot water often comes from an indirect tank, like the 57 gallon stainless one we serviced in Mendon this fall. Well minerals can scale any tank.
- Indirect tanks on the boiler
- Propane tankless water heaters
- Heat pump style water heaters
- Expansion tank and relief valve swaps
- Flushing to remove scale
- Town plumbing and gas permits
Kitchen and Bathroom Fixtures
Faucets, toilets and shower valves are quoted in writing first. Every Mendon house has its own septic system, so we plan new drain lines around the tank and leach field.
- New sinks and kitchen faucets
- Toilets, tubs and showers replaced
- Bathroom vanities and sinks
- Ice maker and dishwasher lines
- Rough-in plumbing for remodels
- Leaks, drips and slow drains
Mendon leak or hot water problem?
If water is spreading, shut the main valve and call us.
Panels, Circuits and Cleaner Air in Mendon
Heat pumps and EV chargers need their own circuits, and on a well the pump circuit uses that panel too.
Bigger Electrical Service and Added Circuits
About four in five Mendon homes were built before 2000, and many panels from then have few open spaces. We check capacity, then handle the upgrade and permit.
- Upgrades to 200 amp service
- Circuits for new heat pumps
- Home EV charger hookups
- Outdoor AC disconnects
- Lights, switches and outlets
- Wiring permits pulled and inspected
Healthier Air Inside
Attic and basement air handlers, including hydro-air, can take media filters, UV lights and humidifiers. Damp summer basements may need a self-draining dehumidifier.
- Media air cleaners
- UV lamps by cooling coil
- Humidifiers for dry air
- Self-draining basement dehumidifiers
- Fresh air exchange systems
- Leaky ducts sealed

Mendon Homeowner Questions, Answered
Day or night, call (508) 301-3470. Our Franklin shop is about 8 miles from Mendon center. If you heat with oil or propane, mention your tank level when you call.
Our office does. The Mendon Building Department has plumbing, gas and electrical inspectors, and state law requires a licensed contractor to pull those permits. Oil burner installs also need a fire department permit.
It depends on the house. With gas in only small parts of town, most homes choose between oil, propane, a heat pump or a mix. We price each option in writing, side by side.
Yes, all of it. We cover ZIP code 01756, from Route 16 to North Avenue and Lake Nipmuc. Mendon borders Hopedale, Upton, Northbridge, Uxbridge, Millville and Blackstone, and we also serve Bellingham and Franklin, where our shop is.
Yes, it can. Most Mendon homes use private wells, and minerals can scale a tank or heat exchanger. Regular flushing helps, and we check any softener or filter before suggesting a new heater.
