West Hartford has many older colonials and Tudors with hot water or steam heat. Cooling is often an attic air handler or a mini split.
HVAC Repair in West Hartford, CT
Elmwood HVAC West Hartford serves the central Hartford County area. Pick your town to see what we usually work on nearby.
Older homes, careful work
West Hartford is known for solid older houses, including colonials and Tudors with radiators and hot water heat. Neighborhoods like Elmwood have many homes that have been updated one system at a time. Cooling is often added later with an air handler in the attic or a few ductless heads. We keep that in mind so repairs fit the house, not the other way around.
What we fix most in West Hartford
Cast iron radiator systems
Many West Hartford colonials and Tudors still heat with hot water radiators. We keep the boiler, pumps, and valves working as a team.
Attic air handlers
When cooling was added to an older house, the air handler often went in the attic. A clogged drain there can drip through a ceiling, so we check it.
Moving off oil
Some owners want to cut oil use and try a heat pump. We look at the house and lay out what is realistic.

West Hartford questions
My West Hartford house has radiators. Can I still get central air?
It is possible, but ducts are hard to fit into an older house. Many owners choose ductless mini splits instead because the install is much less invasive.
Why do some radiators in my hot water system stay cold?
Trapped air or a stuck zone valve is a common cause. Bleeding the radiator sometimes fixes it, and if it does not, we will check the valve and pump.
Can you tell me if my old boiler is worth keeping?
We look at its condition and repair history and give you plain advice. There is no pressure to replace a boiler that still has life in it.
