Reverse the Direction of Your Ceiling Fan and Feel Cooler This SummerCeiling fans are one of the most misunderstood appliances in your home. Most people don't realize that they can be operated during the heating season to move warm air down into the living spaces where occupants can feel it. However, if you're in the know, and are aware of the wintertime benefits of ceiling fans, it's important that when spring arrives, you remember to reverse the blade rotation direction of your ceiling fan back to the default setting for cooling (counterclockwise). Otherwise, you'll miss the cooling effect of your ceiling fans when it gets hot outside.

"On Saturday, my water heater spewed lots of water in the utility portion of my garage. Unfortunately, my furnace was soaked. After my call to Hartman Bros., Darian arrived within the hour and dried out the furnace and re-started it. Hartman Bros. has been servicing my heating and cooling systems for over 30 years and have always been "johnny-on-the-spot" when I have had problems. I highly recommend them."

"As always, Hartman Bros does service RIGHT! They are prompt, courteous, professional, clean and fairly priced for all services we've ever had completed. We were introduced to them in 1998 when we first used their services and have been faithfully returning for every Heating and Air need, including the building of 2 new homes. They are stellar performers providing excellence at a time when mediocrity has been touted as the norm in our society. They go well above and beyond in all they do."

"Josh at Hartman Brothers did a good job. He quickly figured out the problem and got it fixed for 1/3 the cost I was expecting! He did not "find" problems or try to get us to upgrade, just did exactly what we needed him to do. I would strongly recommend calling Hartman Brothers for installing or repairing your AC/Heating!"
