Meet the HVAC Team Serving Burlington, VT

Why We Started a Vermont HVAC Company

Vermont homes are not like homes in milder climates. Many were built before 1950, with heating systems that have been retrofitted, patched, and sometimes pushed past their design limits.

Around Burlington, we see furnaces struggling through January thaws and AC units that never quite keep up in July humidity. That’s why we started E2E-small-state-shared-plain: to give homeowners straight answers and work that holds up to a Vermont winter.

We’ve crawled through basements in the Old North End and replaced systems in farmhouses out toward the Islands.

Customers hire us for the same reasons year after year. They want a clear estimate before work begins, a technician who shows up when promised, and a repair that fixes the actual problem instead of just the symptom.

Our team is EPA Section 608-certified and NATE-certified, and we’re insured and bonded. We’ve served Vermont for over a decade, and we still explain every step plainly because a heating system you don’t understand is a heating system you can’t trust.

The People Behind Your Service Call

Daniel Mercer started E2E-small-state-shared-plain after years of working on older homes around Burlington. He saw too many homeowners get vague estimates and rushed repairs, so he built a team that does the opposite. Daniel is still involved in the field, and he’s the one who trained our technicians to look at the whole system not just the part that’s making noise.

The team schedules service across Vermont, coordinating travel and job-site needs around each community. Before work begins, you get a clear explanation of the visit, the recommended work, and any permit or inspection steps that may apply.

We’re EPA Section 608-certified and NATE-certified, but more importantly, we know Vermont basements, crawlspaces, and the quirks of heating a 150-year-old farmhouse. That local knowledge is what keeps your system running when the temperature drops.

Reliable heating and cooling across Vermont isn’t a slogan it’s a standard we hold ourselves to. When you call, you’ll talk to someone who knows the difference between a quick fix and a lasting repair.

What Vermont Homeowners Call Us About

By the time you pick up the phone, you’ve probably tried the obvious fixes and the problem is still there. Here are the calls we get most often, especially as the seasons change.

• Furnace blowing cold air: You’re burning fuel but getting nothing but a draft. That usually points to a failed igniter or flame sensor, and it’s a repair, not a replacement.

• Furnace starts then shuts off: Short cycling wears out parts fast. We check airflow, gas pressure, and the thermostat to find the root cause.

• AC runs but won’t cool: The compressor might be fine, but low refrigerant or a dirty coil can leave you sweating. We leak-test before adding a single ounce.

• Weak airflow from supply vents: In older Burlington homes, like those off Church Street, ductwork can be undersized or crushed. We measure static pressure to confirm.

• Uneven temperatures between rooms: A second-floor bedroom that’s 10 degrees colder than the living room isn’t normal. It’s often a balancing or insulation issue we can diagnose.

How We Approach Every Job

We start with a clear estimate, then a careful diagnosis. No guesswork, no upselling.

Once we know what’s wrong, we explain your options in plain language repair, replace, or wait and you decide. Before any work begins, we pull the required permits.

In Burlington, that means coordinating with the Department of Permitting and Inspections; in other towns, it’s the local zoning or mechanical office. Vermont’s rules vary by municipality, so we confirm every step.

We follow EPA Section 608 certification for refrigerant handling, including recovery under the Clean Air Act. We also build to Vermont Residential Building Energy Standards, because a system that’s sized and sealed correctly will cost less to run.

One thing out-of-town contractors often miss: Vermont requires a separate electrical permit for covered work, even on a simple furnace swap. We handle that paperwork so your project doesn’t stall.

Our team is NATE-certified and insured, and we treat every home like it’s our own. We also stay current with Vermont Department of Public Service efficiency programs and Department of Environmental Conservation rules for safe disposal.
