Air Leaks: Ways to Detect ThemAn essential component of residential energy efficiency is home weatherization. While this involves comprehensive insulation, it also calls for an airtight home, one where both heat energy and air is kept from transferring between inside and outside. Finding and sealing air leaks is essential if you want your home's heating and cooling system to condition your home effectively and efficiently.

"Josh was very knowledgeable! He was able to find the problem with our furnace and fix it. He was not pushy and didn't try to sell us anything we didn't need! We will definitely do business with Hartman's again when needed!"

"Interviewed three companies for new HVAC install and Rick Hartman as the owner stood out in the interview process. For the installation itself, Darian and partner flawlessly executed the install. Best choice. No misunderstandings. Everything is working perfectly."

"We reached out to Hartman Brothers as our previous place was actually rude and acted like didnt care as we had an issue with the AC. Our systems at that point were about 14 years old. We got a quote from previous place and i about fell off my chair. Called Hartman Brothers and asked if they could provide a quote for us on both and in AC alone. Super impressed as Rick came out next morning. Looked at what we currently had and that same day had a complete quote to us. We were scheduled for May 26 install however they had a cancellation and came out May 17. Both techs were super amazing. Talked with us with everything and answered all of our questions. They came out a little before 8am and everything was installed and working by 2pm. Cleaned up their stuff ( which was great as we have 3 dogs). Never have we experienced this type of professionalism from any company. We are all so pleased with Hartman Brothers including Vicki in the office. She was great helping me and explaining the maintenance agreement. If you ever need a great team you wont be disappointed with Hartman Brothers ! We thank you all for helping us and doing a great job. It was also great we kept it local as well. Glad to be a part of the Hartman Brothers family now ! Thank you again."
