Boston Heating & Cooling, Furnaces, AC & Heat Pumps

Yes. HVAC and gas installations and most replacements in Boston require permits pulled through the City of Boston Inspectional Services Department (ISD). This applies to new furnaces, boilers, gas lines, and many heat pump and AC projects. Permitting confirms the work meets code and protects you when you sell. CleanTap handles this for you: our licensed team pulls the necessary permits and coordinates the required inspections through ISD, so you don’t have to manage the paperwork or the scheduling on your own.

Fast. We run 24/7 emergency heating service from our bases in Braintree and Mansfield, both well positioned to reach Boston neighborhoods. When you call with no heat, we prioritize the visit, arrive with a licensed technician and a stocked truck, and work to restore safe heat as quickly as possible. Whether you’re in Dorchester, the South End, or Charlestown, you reach a real person who can dispatch help, not an answering service that leaves you cold until business hours. Call (781) 630-5449 any time.

Often, yes. Cold-climate heat pumps are engineered to heat efficiently through New England winters while also cooling in summer, which can reduce what you spend running older equipment. Mass Save offers rebates on qualifying high-efficiency heating and cooling upgrades, and those incentives can offset a real share of your project cost. CleanTap helps you understand what your installation may qualify for, and we offer financing so you can move forward on a boiler, furnace, or heat pump upgrade without paying the full amount up front.

We install and service high-efficiency gas and oil furnaces, steam and hot-water boilers, central air conditioning, ductless mini-splits, and cold-climate heat pumps. For Boston’s older homes and condos without existing ductwork, mini-splits and heat pumps are frequently the best fit. We right-size every system to the actual home so it runs efficiently instead of short-cycling or falling short on design-day cold. As always, we pull the required permits through ISD and coordinate inspections, so your installation is documented and done to code from start to finish.

Yes. CleanTap is fully licensed and insured, with experienced heating & cooling technicians and 60+ years of combined experience. The same local pros who quote your job do the work, no subcontractors, and we install to Massachusetts code and pull the proper permits.

Yes. No heat on the coldest night and no AC in a heat wave can’t wait, so we offer 24/7 emergency heating and cooling service across Greater Boston, the South Shore, and Eastern MA. Call (781) 630-5449 and a real local HVAC pro will get to you fast.

As a general guide, typical installed ranges in MA are about $4,500–$8,000 for a gas furnace, $5,000–$9,000 for central AC, $6,000–$12,000 for a boiler, and roughly $8,000–$18,000 for an air-source heat pump or ductless mini-split system before rebates. Mass Save rebates and 0% HEAT Loan financing can cut heat-pump costs substantially. Your home’s size, ductwork, and fuel type affect the final number, so we give you an upfront, fixed quote first.

Yes. Today’s cold-climate (ccASHP) heat pumps are designed to heat efficiently well below freezing, and many MA homes run them as a primary heat source with a backup for the coldest snaps. They also provide air conditioning in summer, so it’s one system for both. We’ll assess your home and size the system correctly, and walk you through Mass Save rebates and financing.

Massachusetts homeowners can often qualify for significant Mass Save rebates on qualifying heat pumps, plus the 0% HEAT Loan for eligible efficiency upgrades. Program amounts and eligibility change over time, so we help you understand what your project may qualify for and handle the install to the standards these programs require. Ask us for the current details with your quote.

Once a year per system is the rule of thumb, heating in the fall, cooling in the spring. Annual tune-ups keep efficiency up, catch small problems before they become no-heat or no-cool emergencies, protect your manufacturer warranty, and extend the life of the equipment. Ask about our maintenance options.

Most heating and cooling installations and replacements require a permit and licensed installation in Massachusetts, and gas or oil work has its own requirements. We pull the proper permits and install to code so your system passes inspection and protects your home’s value and warranty.

As fast as possible, we run 24/7 emergency service across Greater Boston and the South Shore, and a real local HVAC pro (not a call center) answers and dispatches. If you smell gas or a burning odor, shut the system off and call (781) 630-5449 right away.

It depends on age, efficiency, repair cost, and how often it’s breaking down. As a guide, systems over about 15 years old, with rising energy bills or a major repair looming, are often better replaced, especially with today’s high-efficiency and heat-pump options plus Mass Save rebates. We give you an honest side-by-side so you can decide with real numbers.

Yes. We install high-efficiency furnaces, central AC, boilers, and cold-climate air-source heat pumps and ductless mini-splits. If you’re considering electrifying your heat or adding AC, we’ll size the right system for your home, explain the comfort and energy tradeoffs, and help you take advantage of available rebates and financing.

Yes. For system replacements and upgrades we offer flexible financing, and many efficiency upgrades qualify for the Mass Save 0% HEAT Loan. We’ll go over the options with your quote so a new system fits your budget.
