Welcome to the Rodenhiser HVAC Blog!

Ever wonder why your home is cold in some rooms and hot in others?  Or why your energy bills seem too high?  Are you concerned about carbon monoxide and other contaminants or other factors that affect your indoor air quality?  We can help answer these and many other questions.  Over the next few months, we’ll talk about a variety of HVAC topics, including:

• Preventative maintenance plans (It costs less to maintain your system than to repair it!)
• Purchasing a new system, including sizing and installation
• Indoor air quality- factors that affect the air you breathe
• Energy efficiency- what you can do to reduce your energy bills
• Your HVAC equipment- the facts on boilers, furnaces, hydronic systems and more
• Your home’s plumbing- how to keep it functioning properly
• Humidification/dehumidification- How maintaining proper humidity levels affects your health and comfort at home
• And, of course, many more.

We’ve been in business for 80 years, and have a lot of experience with all aspects of home comfort.  In our opinion, the best way for homeowners to stay comfortable, avoid costly repairs and reduce energy bills is to learn how to choose and maintain their systems so that they get the best performance possible, for the longest time.

A well-maintained system can save you as much as 30% in energy costs each year!  Other factors, including proper sizing and installation of equipment can also save you significant money on operating and maintenance of your system.   So remember—knowledge is power!   Get to know your HVAC and plumbing systems so that you can better take care of them.

We’re here to help.  Massachusetts residents have trusted us with their homes’ mechanical systems for almost four generations!  Be sure to check in with us each week where you’ll find the information that helps you take care of the equipment that takes care of you every day.

Our goal is to help educate our customers about energy and home comfort issues (specific to HVAC systems).  For more information about other plumbing and HVAC topics, download our free Home Comfort Solutions Guide.
