Furnace Service & Heating Repair in Jackson, WI

In the Jackson, WI area, your furnace works hard from late fall through early spring, which makes regular maintenance critical for safety, reliability, and efficiency. For most homes, Burkhardt Heating & Cooling recommends servicing your furnace once per year, ideally in early fall before the first hard freeze. During a professional tune-up, our technicians thoroughly clean burners, inspect heat exchangers, test safety controls, check gas pressures, and verify carbon monoxide levels to help prevent breakdowns and unsafe conditions. A properly maintained furnace can run more efficiently, reduce energy bills, and extend the life of your equipment in our demanding Wisconsin winters.

If you are asking, “Why is my furnace blowing cold air in my Jackson, WI home?” there are several possible causes that require expert attention. Common issues include dirty air filters reducing airflow, malfunctioning thermostats, ignition or pilot problems, or safety features shutting the system down partially to protect against overheating. Our team provides prompt diagnostics to pinpoint the exact problem and complete repairs on gas furnaces, high-efficiency condensing furnaces, and hybrid systems. If your unit is older or repeatedly failing, we can also discuss energy-efficient replacement options and help you decide if an upgrade will save you money over the long term. To keep your furnace dependable, schedule annual maintenance with Burkhardt and call us right away at the first sign of odd noises, odors, or insufficient heat.

Air Conditioning Sizing, Installation & Replacement in Jackson, WI

When it comes to cooling, one of the most common questions we hear is, “What size air conditioner do I need for my Jackson, WI home?” While some contractors guess based on square footage alone, Burkhardt Heating & Cooling uses professional load calculations (Manual J) that factor in insulation levels, window types, sun exposure, ceiling height, and air leakage to determine the correct capacity. An air conditioner that is too small will struggle to keep up on hot, humid Jackson summer days, while one that is oversized will short-cycle, create temperature swings, and wear out faster. Our specialists evaluate your home in detail to recommend appropriately sized central air, ductless mini-splits, or heat pumps that deliver consistent comfort and lower energy bills.

Indoor Air Quality, Duct Cleaning & Thermostat Settings in Jackson, WI

Many Jackson, WI homeowners want to know how to improve indoor air quality, especially during long winters when windows stay closed and homes are tightly sealed. Burkhardt Heating & Cooling offers a range of solutions including high-efficiency air filters, whole-home air purifiers, humidifiers, dehumidifiers, and energy recovery ventilators that bring in fresh air while conserving energy. These systems can help reduce common indoor pollutants such as dust, pet dander, pollen, and certain airborne bacteria and viruses, helping those with allergies or respiratory concerns breathe easier. After a thorough assessment of your home and family needs, our team can recommend a customized indoor air quality package that integrates seamlessly with your existing HVAC equipment for cleaner, healthier air year-round.

We are also frequently asked, “Is duct cleaning necessary for Jackson, WI homes?” The answer depends on your specific situation. If your ductwork has never been cleaned, you see visible dust blowing from registers, notice persistent musty odors, or have recently completed a remodeling project, a professional duct cleaning may be beneficial. Proper duct cleaning can help improve airflow, reduce recirculated dust, and support better indoor air quality, especially when combined with quality filtration. Our technicians can inspect your ducts and provide honest advice on whether cleaning is recommended, and if so, how often it should be repeated based on your home’s conditions and occupants.

Another common concern is the best thermostat settings for winter in Jackson, WI. For most households, setting your thermostat around 68°F while you are awake and at home, then lowering it by 6–8 degrees when you are sleeping or away, strikes a good balance between comfort and energy savings. Programmable and smart thermostats make these temperature adjustments automatic, and many allow remote control from your smartphone, which is especially helpful during unpredictable Wisconsin weather. Our team can recommend and install Wi-Fi and smart thermostats that integrate with your existing furnace or heat pump, then help you program them for your Jackson lifestyle. If you want to get more from your HVAC system with less effort, ask us about upgrading your thermostat during your next maintenance visit.
