When it comes to central heating systems and central air conditioners in Fenton, MI, we’re the local HVAC team you can trust.

This is because the condenser is a heavy object and it would start to sink right down into the ground if it wasn’t put on a solid foundation. Laying down a concrete pad is a critical part of putting in the first AC for a new house.
August brings two challenges for air conditioning systems:
