Maintenance

HVAC maintenance service.

Preventative maintenance can be a game changer in the life of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) and plumbing systems in your Pennsylvania home.

Replacing air filters, cleaning equipment, inspecting parts for potential problems, and testing for leaks and cracks can prevent inconvenient breakdowns and costly repairs. Professional preventative maintenance is crucial if you want your HVAC equipment to run efficiently and to last longer. It is one of the best ways to protect your investment in your Harrisburg home’s heating and cooling system.

Let HL Bowman keep your HVAC system in top shape through scheduled inspections, tune-ups, and cleanings.

We are a third-generation, family-owned HVAC and plumbing company at HL Bowman—since 1946. The core family values we operate by are integrated throughout how we conduct business on a daily basis. When you work with our team, we treat you as family. Quality and customer satisfaction are top priorities to us.

Your satisfaction in your Harrisburg area home comfort is everything to us at HL Bowman.

What Is Involved in Maintenance?

We are well versed in every kind of HVAC and plumbing system, and we take account of manufacturer recommendations when addressing your maintenance needs. Our professional team strongly recommends an annual spring air conditioner checkup and a fall tune-up for your furnace. Handling both heating and cooling, heat pumps should be inspected twice a year.

You will avoid mineral buildup that can slow water flow in your water heater if you have us flush the system annually. Your ductwork will benefit from a cleaning every five years, with inspections and possible repairs every two years. We will inspect your equipment for leaks, cracks, worn parts, and cleanliness before we perform a thorough cleaning, tune-up, and filter replacement.

DIY Maintenance

Ask one of our HL Bowman professionals what you can do to keep your HVAC system running smoothly in between professional cleanings and tune-ups. Changing your furnace filter every few months, removing debris from around your air conditioner or heat pump, and covering your air conditioner during our Pennsylvania winters are a few recommended do-it-yourself (DIY) tasks.

Leave the professional maintenance work to our experts. Our team has the knowledge and experience to safely work with both gas and oil furnaces, water heaters, indoor air quality (IAQ) systems, heat pumps, and air conditioning systems.

HVAC Maintenance Repairs

During a routine maintenance visit, we can identify potential problems before they become major repair issues or total system breakdowns. Preventative maintenance enables us to provide a proactive solution. It will also keep you compliant with your manufacturer’s warranty.

However, if you ever suspect your HVAC system needs a repair, call our HL Bowman experts for a prompt diagnosis and cost estimate. You can trust us to recommend a practical solution, and we will never try to sell you equipment or services you don’t need. We are non-commission based, so our team members are not incentivized to make sales for commissions.

Our trained professionals keep abreast of the latest in HVAC trends and technology, doing the job right the first time.

Our Maintenance Value Plans (MVP)

Your Central Pennsylvania home is your largest investment. That’s why we invite you to join our Maintenance Value Plan (MVP), and enjoy the benefits.

We can’t stress enough the importance of ongoing heating and air conditioning maintenance service plans. Our HL Bowman preventative maintenance program provides discounts and other benefits while keeping your HVAC equipment in top shape.

The plans are designed to help you avoid costly repairs, replacement, loss of comfort, inconvenience, or loss of safety. We like to compare it to a smoke alarm—helping to prevent major problems—or putting out the fire before it becomes a very expensive problem.

At HL Bowman, we offer memberships for everyone, so be sure to speak with one of our friendly and knowledgeable team members for details.

“Today we had a regular maintenance call to prepare for upcoming winter and Brandon our Bowman specialist took us through the process step by step. Brandon also show us exactly where we had some issues that actually saved our family from potential carbon monoxide risk. Brandon then had to break it to us we needed a new system. However, the Bowman staff worked with us and gave us an exceptional deal along with financing. We ended up with excellent service and feeling much happier thanks to Brandon and Bowman staff. You will not regret your choice to work with Bowman. They treat you like a family. Thank you Brandon!”

“Adam came to inspect and service our boiler system in our 196 year old house. Pre Civil War….it is comforting to know that someone like Adam was so knowledgable about our older system.
He gave exceptional service, showed up on time, was respectful of our home,
and was kind enough to reccomend updates to make the system run as efficiently as it can for the new year ahead. I will be happy to be using this company for all our heating needs.”

“Brett Bartley called before arriving and was on time. He did the yearly check up on my gas furnace in a timely manner and was very friendly. I very much liked the 2-hour window for my appointment instead of the 4-hour window that you used to give. Consideration for my time is appreciated.

Thank you.”

“Brandon Freysinger showed up promptly and did a quick, efficient job with servicing my mini-splits. I had to change my scheduled appointment due to an unexpected conflict so I was moved up to the next day. I also had an appointment late morning that day. So Brandon came 1st thing in the morning and finished in time for me to easily make that appt.”

“Conner was prompt for the appointment, very informative, very clean. Asked if anyone in the home had allergy problems and I mention that I frequently go to the Emergency Room with Severe Asthma. He discussed installing an Platinum Air Purifier which we all hope will help my allergy/asthma problems. He was very professional and very knowledgeable. I would definitely refer H. L. Bowman.”

“Our specialist was Brett, and he was truly fantastic! He walked me through everything he was doing and gave me knowledge on how our furnace and AC works and things to look out for. He was genuinely nice and was also kind and patient with my dogs. He also informed me of financing that was available so I could have a UV light installed for preventative maintenance. You can tell Brett is extremely knowledgeable and great at his job! Thank you Brett!”

- Amanda H.

“We had the pleasure of working with Mike Sanger today for our annual air conditioning service.
.Mike arrived in a timely manner. Very personable
and after we explained what we needed he began inspection immediately.

After a detailed inspection Mike made us
aware of issues with our unit He did a physical walk through with my husband…. with detailed
pictures with precise explanation. He laid out
our options and gave details on each option.

After discussion we elected to go with Mike's
recommendation. His facts were logical and
trustworthy.

He set up next steps for us.

If you need heating or cooling Mike Sanger
will be our pick…. hands down!!
Thank you Bowman and Mike Sanger is a definite asset . n”
