"The staff is wonderful and the technicians are "top notch" at Hartman Brothers! I have used this company for the past 25+ years for all my regular maintenance checkups and repairs. I have never been disappointed with the quality of work by the Hartman Brothers service technicians. My most recent service tech was "Josh." Josh was very courteous and professional. I will continue to use Hartman Brothers for all my HVAC needs for years to come!"

"Always a tremendous experience with Hartman Brothers. I have used them for more than 25 years and gotten to know their people more like friends/family than vendors... because that's exactly how they treat their customers! Always a pleasure to deal with and their work is exceptional as a bonus. Would give them 6 Stars if it was an option."

"A technician came out to perform an annual service call on air conditioning/heat pump. He also made a minor adjustment to thermostat programming . He was prompt and efficient and discussed future maintenance regular service options."

"I had an excellent experience with Hartman Brothers from start to finish. After dealing with an incomplete and frustrating repair from Peterman Brothers, Hartman Brothers was a breath of fresh air. Their technician spent several hours thoroughly troubleshooting my tankless water heater, walking through the issues clearly and professionally. There was no upselling, no pressure, and no shortcuts—just honest, methodical work.
Based on their findings, I chose to upgrade to a new tankless water heater, and the decision was entirely mine. At no point did they try to push a sale or steer me toward anything unnecessary. The installation was clean, the communication was excellent, and the entire process felt transparent and trustworthy.
It’s clear why they have such a strong reputation in the Fort Wayne area. Their professionalism, responsiveness, and genuine customer‑first approach really stand out. I’m very happy with the new system and with the service I received.

If you have central, forced-air HVAC for heating and cooling your home, it relies on a network of ducts that are essential for proper air distribution through the system. The ducts themselves are routed behind the walls, ceilings or floors, so all you see are the HVAC vents that cover the duct openings. Learning how to identify these vents and understanding their purpose can make it easier to keep your HVAC system operating reliably and efficiently, and help ensure your home comfort.
To keep away the cold of a Fort Wayne winter, your heating system needs to be as well prepared as it can be. Clean heat vents are part of that preparation.
Advice related to modern A/C systems is easy enough to find, no matter where you live. However, you might be surprised to find that many things you would consider ironclad truths about cooling your home are partially or completely false. Read on for some tips for counteracting bad advice on energy-saving practices.
