HVAC Services We Offer at Blaze
When you need a brand-new heating and cooling system or you need your current one fixed, we can handle that.
Here is more information about each of our most popular HVAC services in Durham, NC:
AC Repair
With AC repair, we can fix anything that happens to be malfunctioning in your air conditioning system. We’ll make sure that the job is done correctly the first time with the utmost professionalism.
AC Replacement & Installation
We can install your very first air conditioner or replace the one you currently have if it is no longer working properly. Our expert team will make sure that your new system is installed exactly as it should be.
AC Maintenance
Durham ACs often run six+ months out of the year, fighting back against heat, humidity, and corrosive salt air that accelerates mechanical component wear faster than most people hope. Regular maintenance is what keeps a system running the way you want it to, especially on the hottest August days.
Our AC maintenance visits cover the full scope of the system. During a tune-up, a Blaze technician will clean the evaporator and condenser coils, check refrigerant levels, inspect electrical connections, test the thermostat, clear the condensate drain line, and evaluate the system’s overall health.
Heating Repair
When it comes to heating repair, we can do everything from checking your furnace pilot light or fixing your blower to checking your heat pump’s components to diagnose what’s causing a malfunction.
Heating Replacement & Installation
You can choose to get a new version of the same type of heater installed (heat pump or furnace) or swap to a different system that works better for your needs. We can also install a heater in your home if you’ve never had one before.
Heating Maintenance
Just like with your air conditioner, regular heating maintenance extends the lifespan of your heater and makes sure that any potential problems with your heating system don’t get worse and lead to further damage.
Indoor Air Quality Services
We don’t only handle heating and cooling. We can also help you improve the quality of your air inside your home. This leads to important health benefits in the short and long term, as well as increased comfort. We can filter and purify your air to get rid of particulates as well as humidify or dehumidify your air so that it is both comfortable to breathe and doesn’t add any additional contaminants.

Frequently Asked Questions
With Duke Energy serving most of Durham, are there utility rebates available for HVAC upgrades?
Yes, Duke Energy Progress offers rebates for qualifying HVAC systems, like heat pumps, efficient central air conditioners, and smart thermostats. The specific rebate amounts and qualifying equipment tiers do change periodically, so we’ll verify current incentives during every replacement estimate.
There are also federlal tax credits available under the Inflation Reduction Act for qualifying heat pump installations (currently up to $2,000 for eligible systems), another benefit to factor in.
How does Durham’s tree canopy and pollen season affect my HVAC system?
The tree canopy that encloses neighborhoods like Hope Valley, Woodcroft, and the Duke Forest area comes with a trade-off for your HVAC system. Spring pollen season in the Triangle is among the heaviest in the country, and that pollen load accelerates filter clogging, coats outdoor condenser coils, and slips its way into ductwork.
