Always can count on your customer service to help me maintain my heating system. They do an exceptional job and always keep me informed. Great teamwork.
At Dog House, we know how important it is to have a reliable heating and air conditioning system in your home. Winters in Maine can get incredibly cold, but you’ll also need good air conditioning in the summer. That’s why we offer fast and reliable repair services for our customers. If you notice signs such as rising utility bills, uneven temperatures in your home, or a burning smell that doesn’t go away, don’t hesitate to contact us for repairs. Don’t wait until your furnace or air conditioner breaks down completely for repairs. It’s always much easier and more affordable to fix an HVAC-related problem while it’s still small enough to fix.
No matter how reliable your heating and cooling system may be, there will come a time when it should be replaced. Most heating and air conditioning systems last for 15 to 20 years, but they can show signs of wear and tear after about a decade. If you know your current system is close to 20 years old or if it needs frequent repairs, it’s probably time for something new. Our technicians can work with you to find the right heating and cooling system for your household’s needs.
HVAC Maintenance and Tune-Ups
Like any complicated machinery, your heating and air conditioning system needs regular maintenance to keep working efficiently. Some of this maintenance involves things you can do yourself, such as cleaning your outdoor AC unit or replacing your air filter, but your entire system needs at least one tune-up a year from a heating and cooling expert. It’s best to schedule this tune-up in the spring or early fall when temperatures outside are relatively mild. That way, if you need more extensive repairs, you can schedule them before the main heating or cooling season starts.
A heating and cooling system tune-up usually includes the following steps:
Donna S. Hannah K was outstanding. She was so professional and explained our system to us. (We just bought the home) She pointed out an item that would need our attention in another year. She also explained what would happen if that item didn’t last a year. We were thrilled with her service and with the time she took with
Stephen D. Dog house was fantastic. I was in a tight spot with a zone of my heating system not working and a frozen section of water pipe. They came out was able to resolve the issue which in turn resolved the frozen pipe! Two birds one stone. Great customer service.
Jingles John S. Knows what he is doing. I cannot recommend Doghouse enough from their customer service team to their technicians. I lost heat the coldest week and got the runaround from the original installer of my HVAC unit. I called Doghouse in tears and they had someone out here the same day to diagnose the problem and had it fixed within a couple of days barring getting the part overnighted. That was the one thing that took the longest. Customer service kept me updated every day on what was happening with the part and making sure someone would come out. They have a lifelong customer in me. Forgot to say this is Debbie C.
Elisabeth H. Everyone I have spoken to at Doghouse Is helpful, warm, and eager to help. Zach, our technician, was excellent. He helped me understand what was going on and he fixed the problem. He had an issue with a part and handled it effectively and efficiently. We so appreciate Doghouse energy!

Michael C. Keagen, Doug and j from Swansea did an excellent job. They were meticulous about everything they did, very neat throughout the entire installation. When they had finished, there was no trace of being there. They seem to subscribe to the notion of leaving their work space cleaner than they found it.. Keagen was very knowledgeable, personable, listened very attentively, never appeared to be in a rush and was very polite as well as genuinely interested in what we had to say. He is a real asset to the company.There was a bit of disorganized activity around the materials needed for the installation,,mistakes on some supplies, but that was quickly taken care of.Overall excellent service.
Scott D. Jarrod and Nick were on time, courteous, and answered all my questions. Dog House has always provided us with great service.

Robert P. After the frightening experience of having our CO alarm go off and ordering us to evacuate at 6:30 am in the morning and having to call 911 and the fire department, we called Doghouse, with whom we had never done business, and they agreed to respond promptly. John S and his assistant knew what to do and fixed our boiler, which was producing deadly amounts of CO, quickly, so we got our heat back on a very cold day. The lady who answered our call was also very professional and helpful. We are signing up for their year round service plan. 5 stars all around.
