Keeping your home or business warm, safe, and energy-efficient through Michigan winters requires experienced, local heating service you can rely on. Our Heating Service in Kalamazoo, MI covers repair, installation, replacement, preventive maintenance, and 24-hour emergency response for residential and commercial customers. This page explains what we do, the common heating issues Kalamazoo customers face, how we diagnose and fix problems, and what to expect from estimates, warranties, and routine care.
What we offer full-spectrum heating services
- Heating repair: Fast diagnostics and repairs for furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, and ductless systems. We address ignition and pilot problems, blower motor failures, thermostat malfunctions, gas valve and combustion issues, and refrigerant or compressor faults in heat pumps.
- New installation and replacement: System sizing, load calculations, ductwork evaluation, and professional installation of high-efficiency furnaces, heat pumps, and ductless mini-split systems. We prioritize right-sized equipment and proper ventilation to maximize comfort and longevity.
- System replacement planning: Honest assessments of repair vs replacement based on age, efficiency, anticipated repair costs, and expected life. We present options that balance comfort, efficiency, and upfront vs long-term cost.
- Planned maintenance and tune-ups: Annual inspections, cleaning, safety checks, filter and belt changes, heat exchanger and flue inspections, and seasonal system optimization to reduce breakdown risk and extend equipment life.
- Emergency heating service: 24-hour response capability for no-heat calls, carbon monoxide concerns, or critical failures affecting safety or business operations.
- Commercial heating solutions: Preventive maintenance contracts, phased replacement plans, zoning and control upgrades, and service tailored to business hours and continuity needs.
Certifications, experience, and manufacturer partnerships
- Over 30 years of local HVAC experience serving Kalamazoo and surrounding areas.
- LEED and EPA certifications ensuring safe, code-compliant practices and attention to indoor air quality and environmental standards.
- Authorized installer and service partner for leading manufacturers including Daikin, offering access to modern heat pumps, furnaces, and warranty programs.
- Technicians undergo ongoing training in combustion safety, refrigerant handling, and high-efficiency system commissioning.
Typical diagnostic and service workflow
- Initial assessment: For repairs, a technician documents symptoms, checks error codes, and conducts safety checks (carbon monoxide, gas leaks, electrical hazards).
- System inspection and testing: We inspect filters, burners, heat exchanger, blower motor, controls, thermostat, ductwork, and outdoor units for heat pumps. For installations, a load calculation (Manual J) and duct evaluation determine the right equipment size.
- Transparent findings: You receive a clear summary of issues, options (repair vs replace), expected lifespan, and a written estimate for recommended work.
- Repair or installation: Repairs use OEM-quality parts; installations follow manufacturer specifications and local code. For replacements, we ensure proper venting, combustion air, and system calibration.
- Post-service validation: After repair or install we test operation across modes, verify safety systems, and explain care and recommended maintenance intervals.
Common heating problems in Kalamazoo and practical solutions
- No heat or intermittent heat: Often caused by failed ignition controls, clogged filters, or thermostat problems. Timely diagnostics prevent frozen pipes and comfort loss.
- Short cycling: Typically linked to oversized systems, airflow restrictions, or failed control boards. Fixing airflow and controls restores efficiency and reduces wear.
- Uneven heating or cold spots: Duct leaks, poor zoning, or undersized equipment. Solutions include duct sealing, improved zoning controls, or strategic system replacement.
- High utility bills: Aging boilers or furnaces and failing heat pumps lose efficiency. Replacing older equipment with high-efficiency models or repairing airflow issues delivers measurable savings.
- Heat pump performance in cold weather: Modern cold-climate heat pumps and correct sizing can maintain comfort even in Kalamazoo winters; supplemental heat or hybrid systems are options for extreme cold.
Pricing structure, guarantees, and financing options
Estimates are based on system type, parts required, labor, and any necessary duct or vent modifications. For replacement projects we provide itemized proposals with equipment options, efficiency ratings, and lifetime cost considerations. Workmanship warranties cover installation services, and manufacturer warranties apply to parts and compressors through our authorized partnerships. For larger installations, financing programs are commonly available to spread investment over time. Written estimates and warranty details are provided before work begins so you can compare options with confidence.
Customer Testimonials
In the past 18 months, Adams has installed a new Amana air conditioning system, and new filtration and humidification systems at my home. The installers were all very courteous, professional and knowledgeable. Their work was simply superb... reasonably priced, and performed on time and to perfection! I enthusiastically recommend Adams, without reservation!
As usual, Adams Heating and Cooling exceeded our expectations. The quote was done in a timely manner, pricing was fair, installation was quick and the job was done right! Rob is great to work with. Adams is first on our list!
Called these guys off of a referral from a friend. Home furnace failure in sub-zero temperatures, late at night. Dan was there in an hour. Friendly, polite, professional and most importantly, very competent. Diagnosed and fixed the problem in under an hour. After hours 24/7 pricing was surprisingly reasonable. This outfit gets straight A+ from us.
Excellent service! We had them replace our heater, AC, and water heater as a package deal. They even helped with financing as it was a large expense to address at one time. It left us with peace of mind that all the mechanicals in our home were new!
They have always been there for us and did so again by responding quickly to put in a new furnace after a lighting strike caused a power surge. In addition, their electrician came by to help with other issues caused by the strike. Everyone we work with from the who answers the phone to who shows up to complete the work are polite, pleasant and professional! And quick to respond and on time!
After 28 years I have chosen to look into other companies very disappointed in how I was spoken to over the phone. It’s still under warranty and I was left with no heat on Thursday and labor and a trip charge of $180 is ridiculous, I wasn’t charged for parts. I have it serviced every fall for peace of mind
From the service call to the installation with Dan, Dave, and Daniel… our experience was top notch. They quickly came out, identified the problem, and installation of our new unit took less than 3 hours. Can’t recommend Adams enough!
Dan, Dave and Mike were phenomenal! Very patient, listened to my questions/concerns, and made sure that everything was working and that my Nest was working correctly, before leaving. Thank you so much for your service!
Service was excellent! Had a new furnace installed. The technicians did a wonderful job and completed the installation quickly. Mike answered my questions and followed up to verify the worke done. I was charged just as I was quoted. Have used Adam's for repairs in the past and I'm always pleased. Great work!
I had a boiler and water heater replacement/upgrade. I went from an 84% efficient boiler to a 95% efficient. I dont recall the water heater's efficiency. That was upgraded to an indirect water heater. Josh and Brad did a great job. The work looks great. The boiler and water heater work as to be expected. Their customer service is excellent. I will definitely be calling then when my basement remodel is ready to start.
I have had Adam's Heating and Cooling out at my house before, so I called them for some gas line work. The estimator was very helpful and let me know the best way to be ready for when the work is scheduled so they can test the generator after they install the gas line to the meter and also let me know how to take care of another issue I had that would be helpful. I look forward to getting this work done and working with them.
