Heat Pump Installation
While heat pumps are less systematic than other HVAC systems, heat pump installations still require an experienced technician to ensure that the unit is in optimal working condition and installed in the proper manner, taking into account the unique layout and requirements of each living space.
Patriot Air offers heat pump installation services to Columbus and the greater Central Ohio area. If you are thinking of installing a new heat pump in your home, it is important to be aware of considerations such as the extraction method that will be used, the size of the heat pump and how the system will operate in extreme cold or hot temperatures. Our professionals have worked on countless heat pump installation projects right here in Central Ohio and will be pleased to work with you to determine your needs and the most suitable heat pump solution for your home.
Different heat pumps require different installation methods. Geothermal heat pumps can be expensive to install because they involve setting up a more complex heat transferring system through a ground source. Air-source heat pump installation, on the other hand, may be less expensive because installation tends to be less involved.
Understanding the climate of your area is important in determining if a heat pump installation is right for you. Many homeowners find that heat pumps help cut back on the costs of utility bills. If you are interested in discussing a heat pump installation with one of our experienced team of heating and cooling contractors, contact Patriot Air today.
Every Patriot Air HVAC Maintenance Plan Includes:
Priority Service Scheduling. Any time you need service while you are enrolled, you move to the front of the line. On the hottest afternoon in July or the coldest night in January, when every HVAC company in Columbus is booked solid, this is the benefit you will be glad you have.
No diagnostic charges. No diagnostic fees while you are enrolled. That's a $130 value every single time we come out to look at your system.
15% off any part you may need. Plan members get 15% off any part required for a repair, backed by a full two-year parts warranty. One mid-sized repair typically returns more than a year of plan cost.
Precision tune-ups on schedule. Our tune-ups run through dozens of checkpoints on your equipment, and every visit ends with a complete written report so you know exactly what we inspected, what we found, and what to watch.
90-day satisfaction guarantee. Try any plan for ninety days. If you are not 100% satisfied, you may cancel at any time, no penalty and no hassle.
AC & Furnace Maintenance Plan
Two precision tune-ups a year, timed to the seasons that matter. We service your air conditioner in the spring before cooling season arrives, and your furnace in the fall before you need heat.
Your air conditioning tune-up covers cleaning and washing the condenser coils, leveling the condensing unit for proper motor and bearing wear, lubricating motor and fan bearings, inspecting the evaporator coil and drain pan, checking condensate drain lines, calibrating the thermostat, cleaning the blower assembly, testing every electrical connection and capacitor, measuring line and control voltage and amp draw, verifying airflow and air delivery, adjusting all safety controls, and monitoring refrigerant pressures with superheat and subcooling measured against factory specifications.
Your furnace tune-up covers cleaning and adjusting the main gas burners and ignition assembly, inspecting the heat exchanger and combustion chambers for cracks, rust, and problem areas, vacuuming out the blower compartment and return air drop, testing the flue assembly and drafting mechanism, testing all safety controls, measuring and adjusting gas pressure, replacing or cleaning standard air filters, lubricating fan motors and moving parts, setting proper blower speed and airflow, calibrating the thermostat, recording heating output, testing the thermocouple and pilot safety switch, and repairing minor air leaks in the plenum and return air drop.
That heat exchanger inspection is the one no homeowner should go without. A cracked heat exchanger is a carbon monoxide risk, and it is not something you can spot on your own or hear coming.
What this plan does for you: lower utility bills from reduced energy waste, longer equipment life, fewer repairs and breakdowns, improved system reliability, greater heating and cooling capacity, and a full written report after every visit.
Geothermal System Maintenance Plan
Geothermal systems are built to last decades, with indoor components running twenty-five years or more and ground loops lasting over fifty. Protecting that kind of investment takes a technician who actually knows geothermal, which is a different skill set than conventional heating and cooling.
Your plan includes two precision tune-ups a year, one in spring and one in fall. Each visit covers verifying supply voltage, measuring compressor amp draw, checking return air and coil temperature differential, checking loop pressures and temperatures, removing air from the flow center, adding loop fluid as needed, switching the desuperheater on or off for the season, inspecting all electrical connections and grounds, checking capacitor MFD ratings, cleaning the drain pan, checking and replacing filters, scanning the unit for fault codes, verifying auxiliary and backup heat operation, and checking and cleaning the blower motor.
Patriot Air has been Central Ohio's geothermal specialist since Geo Source One became part of our team, and we install and service the full WaterFurnace line. When you call us about a geothermal system, you are talking to people who work on them every week.
What this plan does for you: lower utility bills, extended equipment life, fewer repairs, improved reliability, and greater heating and cooling capacity, season after season.

Why a Maintenance Plan Pays for Itself
At under twenty dollars a month, a maintenance plan costs less than a single diagnostic call. Skip the maintenance and the math runs the other direction fast.
Dirty coils and clogged filters force your system to run longer to deliver the same comfort, and that inefficiency shows up on every utility bill for as long as you ignore it. Components that are wearing out tend to fail at the worst possible moment, which is exactly when emergency scheduling is tightest across Columbus. And a system that never gets serviced rarely reaches the fifteen-year lifespan it was engineered for, which means replacing equipment years earlier than you planned.
There is a warranty angle too. Most manufacturers require documented annual maintenance to keep equipment warranties valid, so letting your tune-up schedule lapse can quietly cost you coverage you already paid for when you bought the system.
Plan members avoid the diagnostic fee entirely, take 15% off any part, and get two years of warranty behind those parts. One repair usually covers the year.
We the People, Love Patriot Air

Fast & Efficient Service...
Patriot Air showed up on time, checked out my furnace, and within minutes of being there not only diagnosed the problem, but had the parts on the truck to fix it. Within thirty minutes, my furnace was blowing hot air again. Brian, the technician gave me tips on how to take better care of my furnace and even showed me how to change the air filter by myself. I couldn’t be happier and I’ve found my heating and cooling company for life. Thank you Patriot Air!

Patriot Air to the Rescue...
Our furnace went out while we were at work, and we came home to a freezing house. We have small children, so having it too cold in the house isn’t an option. We called around to a few places, and Patriot Air was the only HVAC company to return our call and immediately rushed a technician to our house. I can’t thank them enough for putting my family first and ensuring my kids had a warm home to sleep in. I tell everyone Patriot Air is the only HVAC company I’ll ever call again.

Knowledgeable & Professional...
I previously had an HVAC repair company come out to my house and attempt to repair my heat pump. They showed up late. The service technician spent most of the time on his phone, tracked mud into my house, and ultimately had no idea how to fix my problem. I called Patriot Air the next day, they showed up that same day, found and fixed the problem, and treated me and my house respectfully. I highly recommend Patriot Air for your heating and cooling needs.

Honest & Courteous...
Having a fixed income with unexpected expenses, like fixing the heating and cooling systems, is hard. Luckily for us, Patriot Air is a company that doesn’t nickel and dime you to death and is very fair-priced. They didn’t try to sell us anything we didn’t need and made sure we were comfortable with the price before they did any work. We were able to afford our repairs through their financing program. Now our central air is working wonderfully.
