Why Wisconsin Homeowners Choose H.J. Faust, Inc.

Credentials matter when you’re trusting someone with your home’s heating system. Our technicians are NATE-certified, factory-trained, fully licensed, and insured. NATE (North American Technician Excellence) is the industry’s nationally recognized credential, requiring technicians to pass rigorous knowledge-based exams in heating, cooling, ventilation, and refrigeration. It’s not a courtesy title.

What truly sets our team apart is how we develop mechanics over time. We train through our structured Internal Apprenticeship & Development Program, a multi-year curriculum combining classroom instruction with hands-on field work under direct Senior Mechanic supervision. That structured pipeline helps develop technicians who understand systems at a deeper level than a standard hire-and-train model allows. Beyond the apprenticeship, every field and office employee completes a minimum of four training sessions per year to stay current on new equipment and processes.

That commitment to honest work shows up in our reviews too. We’ve earned an Excellent rating based on hundreds of Google reviews, with customers consistently citing our promptness, clear communication, and thorough follow-through. We’re also BBB-accredited, which requires meeting ongoing standards for transparency and customer responsiveness.

Each year, we also participate in the Lennox Feel the Love program, partnering with Lennox to nominate a deserving Burlington-area household and donating and installing a furnace at no cost to the recipient. We recycle all eligible material on every job and dispose of the rest responsibly.

Heating Systems We Install in Burlington, WI

Every home has different constraints: existing ductwork, square footage, fuel availability, and budget. We install Lennox heating systems and service all major brands, including Carrier, Daikin, Goodman, Honeywell, Trane, Bryant, and Lennox, so we can match the right equipment to your situation rather than pushing one solution.

Boiler Installation & Replacement

Boilers use hot water or steam to heat radiators and baseboards, delivering even warmth without circulating dust or allergens. They’re a strong fit for older homes with existing radiator infrastructure.

Furnace Installation & Replacement

Gas, oil, and electric furnaces distribute heated air through ductwork and remain the most common heating system type across the Midwest. If your existing system uses ductwork, a furnace replacement is often the most straightforward path forward.

Heat Pump Installation

Heat pumps transfer heat rather than generate it, providing both heating and cooling in one system. Cold-climate models have significantly expanded their practicality in Wisconsin conditions.

Radiant Heating

Radiant systems warm floors, walls, or ceilings directly, eliminating drafts and cold spots throughout the home. They’re an excellent option for homeowners who want consistent comfort without forced air.

Geothermal Systems

Geothermal heating draws on stable ground temperatures for efficient year-round operation. The upfront investment is higher, but long-term operating costs can reflect that efficiency.

Ductless Mini-Split Systems

Mini-splits are well suited to homes without existing ductwork or to additions and rooms that need independent temperature control. No long duct runs are required.

What to Expect During a Heating Replacement

A heating installation isn’t just swapping one box for another. Done right, it involves evaluating the home’s layout, insulation levels, and heat load before equipment is ever selected.

Here’s how we approach the process:

• System evaluation: We assess your current setup, home size, insulation, window area, and local climate demands to determine the right-sized replacement.
• Equipment recommendation: We match system type and capacity to your home’s actual needs, not a standard package.
• Safe removal: We disconnect and remove the old system responsibly, recycling all eligible materials and disposing of the rest in accordance with our environmental practices.
• Installation and calibration: We install and fully calibrate the new system before we consider the job complete.
• Homeowner walkthrough: We walk you through how to operate your new equipment so you’re comfortable from day one.

Repair vs. Replace: How to Know the Difference

Not every aging system needs to be replaced immediately. We begin with a thorough inspection so the recommendation reflects what’s actually happening with your heating system, not what generates the larger invoice.

That said, certain patterns point clearly toward replacement:

• Frequent breakdowns: If your heating system has needed repairs more than once or twice in the past year, accumulated costs can approach or exceed the price of a new unit.
• Age beyond 15 to 20 years: Most heating systems reach the end of their efficient service life in this range; parts become harder to source, and efficiency falls regardless of maintenance.
• Rising energy bills: Steadily increasing heating costs with an aging system often signal declining efficiency rather than a fixable component failure.
• Uneven heat: An inability to maintain consistent temperatures throughout the home can indicate the system is no longer capable of meeting demand.

When a heating repair is genuinely the right call, we’ll tell you. When replacement makes more financial sense over the next few years, we can show you why.

Protecting Your Investment After Installation

A new heating system is a long-term asset, and twice-yearly maintenance is a reliable way to keep it performing well. We recommend one fall check-up for your heating system and one spring check-up for your air conditioning system each year.

Our Annual Maintenance Agreement covers both check-ups and includes a 30-point inspection, priority scheduling so you move ahead of non-members during peak seasons, no overtime charges for after-hours calls, and a 10% discount on all parts and labor when repairs are needed. It’s designed to catch minor issues before they become major ones and to help support manufacturer warranty compliance.

For situations that can’t wait, our technicians are available 24/7 for emergency heating calls. We offer competitive pricing and flexible scheduling to fit a range of needs and timelines.
