Our Specialized Experience Serving Residents of Grosse Pointe
Grosse Pointe is a very historic town, and with that comes many older homes. These historic homes date from the 1910s and various regulations set by the town of Grosse Pointe apply to some of these homes, especially those in the Grosse Pointe Park. Our technicians are trained in proper care and maintenance for these homes, including care for original plaster ductwork and sealing any drafts and air leaks in vintage windows and doors to preserve the historical aspects of the homes without sacrificing comfort.
If you live in the Grosse Pointe Historical District, we help homeowners follow principles of the historic district such as “it is better to repair than to replace” to ensure the historical homes stay within the codes set by the Historical District Ordinance. These regulations can be complex to navigate, and we aid you in making the proper decision for your home.

Insulation Challenges are Prevalent in Older Homes
Older homes are typically equipped with less effective insulation compared to newer homes, leading to higher energy bills and the potential for HVAC systems to be overworked. It is paramount to check your insulation and ensure your HVAC system is up to date on maintenance and not overworked.
That’s why heating installation and cooling installation with a special emphasis on conserving heat and air conditioning are some of our most popular services.
Ductwork Issues Are Common In Many Grosse Pointe Homes
In many cases, older ductwork is outdated or poorly sealed, which can cause air leaks. This causes inefficient heating and cooling and the HVAC system to overwork itself to compensate. We will test your system to ensure it is running smoothly.
Many homeowners utilize our AC repair services to ensure their ductwork is properly sealed.
Inconsistent Room Temperatures Are Caused by Inadequate Insulation, Air Leaks, and Outdated Windows
Inadequate insulation, air leaks, and outdated windows in older homes can cause uneven heating and cooling. Zoned HVAC systems and window treatments aid this issue and improve the overall climate comfort of the home.
This is why many have us perform regular heating maintenance to ensure each room maintains a consistent room temperature.
Historic Preservation Stops Many HVAC Services
Many homes in Grosse Pointe are historical and must be maintained. We perform HVAC maintenance and upgrades that preserve the architectural integrity of the home.
Many people in historical homes choose to have a ductless mini split unit installed to avoid ductwork.
Compatibility Issues may be Present for Older Homes, Halting Modern HVAC System Installation
Older homes may not be equipped to handle modern HVAC systems due to their high-powered nature. We assess your home and make modifications to the electrical components or system structure, ensuring safe installations.
This is why homeowners choose to use us for heating installation and cooling installation.
Older Homes May Require Energy Efficiency Upgrades
Due to the complex nature of HVAC systems in old homes, many of our customers are opting for ductless mini-split units. This is a simple system that will heat and cool homes efficiently while minimizing the efficiency loss caused by older duct systems.
Many people choose to have us perform AC maintenance to ensure their HVAC is operating as efficiently as possible.
Indoor Air Quality is Massively Effected by Older Construction Materials and Lack of Modern Ventilation
Older homes may have issues with indoor air quality due to the older construction materials and lack of modern ventilation systems. We test your air quality routinely and tune your system to ensure the maximum quality possible.
This is why people choose to have us perform heating maintenance on their systems.
