Cooling Services for Waterford

Wisconsin summers bring heat and humidity that put real demand on your cooling system. Our technicians are NATE-certified and factory-trained, meaning they meet nationally recognized standards in heating, cooling, ventilation, and refrigeration before they arrive at your door. We install Lennox systems and service all major brands, including Carrier, Daikin, Goodman, Honeywell, Trane, and Bryant.

• AC repair
• Preventative AC maintenance
• Heat pump installation and repair
• Ductless mini split installation, repair, and maintenance

Ductless mini split systems are worth a closer look if your home lacks existing ductwork or you’re adding a room addition. They deliver zoned comfort and can be an efficient fit for a range of home configurations.

Heating Services & 24/7 Emergency Response

When a heating system fails in a Wisconsin winter, the clock matters. Our technicians are available around the clock for emergency heating calls. There's no waiting until business hours when temperatures are dropping. We service gas and electric furnaces, heat pumps, and boilers, and we handle everything from minor repairs to full system replacements.

Heating Services We Provide

• Furnace installation and replacement
• Furnace repair
• Heating system maintenance
• Boiler services
• Heat pump services

We recommend scheduling a fall check-up for your heating system each year before the cold sets in. Catching small issues in October can be far less disruptive than an emergency call in January. Modern heat pumps are also engineered to operate efficiently in cold-climate conditions and are a viable option for many Waterford homes.

Indoor Air Quality Testing & Solutions

Indoor air quality directly affects comfort and respiratory health, particularly in tightly sealed Wisconsin homes during the winter months. Humidity imbalances, either too much or too little, can contribute to dust accumulation, discomfort, and added strain on your system. We test indoor air quality before recommending any solution, so our suggestions are grounded in what’s actually happening in your home, not guesswork. Our IAQ services include air quality testing, air purifier installation, and humidifier installation.

What Sets H.J. Faust, Inc. Apart

Every technician we send to your home is NATE-certified, fully licensed, insured, and factory-trained, meeting nationally recognized standards across heating, cooling, ventilation, and refrigeration. That level of preparation doesn’t happen by accident. We train our mechanics through the state-approved Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC) Apprentice Program, a five-year curriculum that combines classroom instruction with hands-on field work under direct Senior Mechanic supervision. Every field and office employee also attends a minimum of four training sessions per year to stay current on new equipment and processes.

The results show up in our reviews. We’ve earned an Excellent rating from hundreds of Google reviews, with customers consistently noting our promptness, clear communication, and thorough work. We also hold BBB accreditation, reflecting our commitment to accountability.

Community matters to us as much as craftsmanship. Each year, we participate in the Lennox Feel the Love program, donating and installing new heating or cooling equipment for a deserving household that couldn’t otherwise afford it. We also sponsor the Tall Tales Music Festival, the Burlington Turkey Trot benefiting Love, Inc., and the Transitional Living Center of Burlington, while supporting local schools, athletic programs, and the Chamber of Commerce. Our team recycles all eligible material on every job and disposes of the rest responsibly.

Annual Maintenance Agreement

One way to reduce the risk of a breakdown is to prevent one. Our Annual Maintenance Agreement covers both a furnace check-up and an air conditioner check-up: one in the fall for heating and one in the spring for cooling. Members receive a 30-point inspection, priority scheduling, no overtime charges for after-hours calls, and a 10% discount on all parts and labor when repairs are needed. For Waterford homeowners who want their system running reliably season to season, this agreement is a practical choice.

Signs Your HVAC System Needs Attention

Some HVAC problems announce themselves loudly. Others show up as gradual changes you might not immediately connect to your system.

Here are some of the warning signs that are worth taking seriously:

• Unusual noises: Grinding, banging, hissing, or squealing can signal loose components, ignition problems, or motor issues.
• Strange odors: Musty smells may point to mold in ductwork, while a burning smell can indicate an electrical problem.
• Inconsistent temperatures: Weak airflow or uneven heating and cooling across rooms often point to ductwork problems, a fan motor issue, or a clogged filter.
• Short cycling: Frequent on/off cycling can indicate an oversized system, thermostat malfunction, or refrigerant issue.
• Rising energy bills: If your usage hasn’t changed but costs have climbed, your system may be working harder than it should.
• Excess dust or humidity: May mean your system is no longer properly filtering or conditioning the air.

Waterford HVAC Frequently Asked Questions

Some HVAC problems can be narrowed down by the symptoms alone, but a full inspection is the best way to know whether repair or replacement makes more sense. Below are a few common questions we hear from Waterford homeowners.

How Do I Know If My HVAC System Needs Repair or Replacement?

We start with a thorough inspection before recommending any solution. Systems over 10 to 15 years old, systems that break down frequently, or systems that can no longer maintain a consistent temperature are often candidates for replacement. That said, we won’t recommend more than what your system actually requires. If a repair is the right answer, that’s what we’ll tell you.

What Noises Should I Be Concerned About From My Furnace?

Banging, rattling, squealing, and grinding aren’t sounds to ignore. They can indicate loose components, ignition problems, or motor wear. Catching these early can mean a less involved repair. If your furnace is making unusual noises, schedule a diagnostic call before the issue worsens.

Can a Heat Pump Work in Wisconsin’s Climate?

Yes. Modern heat pumps are engineered for cold-climate performance and are a practical option for many Waterford homes. We can walk you through whether a heat pump makes sense given your home’s configuration and your heating needs.

Why Does My System Keep Turning On and Off?

Short cycling, or frequent on/off cycling, is commonly caused by thermostat issues, a clogged filter, refrigerant problems, or a system that was oversized for the space. A diagnostic visit can identify the cause. Left unaddressed, short cycling puts extra wear on system components.

What’s Causing Uneven Temperatures Throughout My Home?

Uneven temperatures often point to ductwork leaks, blocked or closed vents, insulation gaps, or an aging system that can no longer deliver consistent airflow. In some cases, a ductless mini split system can address comfort issues in specific rooms without requiring major ductwork modifications.
