The local picture in New Haven
New or altered sewer connections need a separate permit from the Water Pollution Control Authority. Two- and three-family houses are common in neighborhoods like Fair Haven and the Hill.
Many older homes in New Haven heat with boilers feeding radiators. Older buildings often heat with steam or hot water radiators fed by a boiler, while cooling comes from window units. Banging pipes and cold radiators are classic service calls.
Humidity is a summer problem here, and an AC that is oversized or low on refrigerant can leave the house cool but clammy. The Regional Water Authority supplies New Haven, drawing on Lake Whitney and Lake Gaillard among other sources.
Rules and utilities worth knowing
Connecticut licenses heating, piping and cooling contractors through the Department of Consumer Protection. Replacing a furnace, boiler or central air system usually needs a mechanical permit from the Office of Building Inspection and Enforcement, which the installer normally pulls.

Questions from New Haven residents
Do you cover Morris Cove and Fair Haven?
Our network reaches Morris Cove, Beaver Hills, Edgewood and Dixwell and the rest of New Haven (06510, 06511, 06512, 06513, 06515 and others). Whether a pro can come depends on their schedule, and we will let you know quickly either way.
Do I need my ducts cleaned?
Not on a fixed schedule. It can help after renovation dust, a pest problem or visible mold, but regular filter changes do most of the work.
My thermostat is blank. Is the system broken?
Not always. Dead batteries, a tripped breaker or a blown fuse at the unit can blank the screen. Check those first.
Why is my AC freezing up?
Low airflow from a dirty filter or blocked vents is a common cause, and low refrigerant is another. Turn the system off to let it thaw and call a tech if it happens again.
Not in a rush? Say so. Flexible timing can make it easier to find someone with an opening.
