I really appreciate your guy coming here to take care of my furnace. He was kind, helpful, and took care of the problem in a short amount of time. I would recommend your services to any. Thank you so much!

We had to replace an outdated heating system. Jordan, Travis and Dillion were awesome. Great customer service. They also helped us get a rebate through our power company. Highly recommended.

Competent. Priced fairly. Professional. Can't say enough good about these guys.

Jordan and crew fixed my mini-split leak quickly and got me running again before summer hits. They were professional and communicated well. Their pricing was very competitive - nearly 1/3 the cost that one of their competitors quoted me for the same repair. Would definitely call them back for future work!

Minuteman Services are very efficient, explained what the job entailed and completed it well. Appreciated timely service, knowledge and efficiency!

Called on a late Saturday and got an immediate response from Shane. He helped me trouble shoot and saved me big money, fixed our eletrical problem. Cannot say thank you enough!!!

Our furnace went out, and Travis and the team were able to quickly get over and give us an estimate on a repair and a replacement. (As a courtesy, they even have a lock box with space heaters if you need to get through a night or two without heat.) We ended up not only replacing the furnace, but adding central air as well. They were able to get it done in 2 days, and the system is super quiet and distributes the heat and A/C really nicely. They even added an outlet to the outside of the house, which is great because we didn't have any before! There was a small issue about where the furnace was venting out. We have an enclosed deck, and it was just venting out onto the deck. Despite not being in the bid, they routed the vent out to the side so that we wouldn't be breathing in any more exhaust/CO! However, it didn't look as clean as it could be the first time they did it, and we had some suggestions to make it look better that Travis fully supported and said that they would take care of (even though it was like an additional project in the first place). They redid it with a good attitude, and it looks really clean now! Wouldn't hesitate to recommend Minuteman! Even got this nice red hoodie as an appreciation gift 😀

Excellent Service Top Notch Service Jason And Dillon And Crew Very Experienced A Jop Well Done Thank You All So Very Much. Brian Ruth Kidder

We had Minuteman retrofit our main ductwork to make the air distribution more efficient and eliminate "hot spots." The crew was professional and efficient. I'm very pleased with their work. I recommend them without reservation!

You guys were great. Best customer service I've had in a while always returned your calls and worked with you as far as financing and did a great job in a timely manner would 100% recommend them.

Minuteman lives up to their name! Called before they showed up, arrived on time and provided an same-day estimate for a furnace replacement. Again, called and showed up on time on the day of the replacement, and finished within the promised time. Talked through the operation/maintenance of the new unit and maintenance plans and made sure all questions were answered. ...and the price could not be beat (less than half of some others!) I'd give them 10 stars if I could!

Quick to respond and very reasonable and thorough. I've had them do a few things and they've done it with great quality.

My furnace went out while it was -5° outside and Minuteman was able to be there quickly and get it running fast! Other companies that have looked at my furnace in the past have said it’s past its life expectancy and that I need replace it, but Minuteman took the time to make repairs and explain proper maintenance to try to get more life out of my older furnace! They never once mentioned a replacement.

This company provided incredible service. They came to our home quickly to inspect our furance, which in the end did need replaced. The employee who came to our home was so helpful and informative with each step of the process. The next day, employees came to install the new furnace and worked diligently and thoroughly. I highly recommend this company to anyone needing furance/HVAC needs. I will definitely be a return customer.

Travis was excellent in finding out what was wrong with a furnace he was checking out for me! I would use Minuteman anytime! They are great people.

My daughter’s cadet heater stopped working after smoking and they came same day to diagnose and replace the unit. Thank you for caring for our family in a timely manner!

Jason and Trevor were very friendly and knowledgeable in replacing our furnace. Highly recommended.

Minuteman Services go the extra mile to do all they can to help! Jarrod and Travis were fantastic! They were very efficient and quick to come out to fix the problem. I highly recommend these guys. They know what they're doing. Thank you!

What an amazing team of people! They work so hard to take care of their clients. They got my furnace replaced quickly so that I could keep myself and my dogs warm in the middle winter. Thank you!

The guys at Minute Man are the best. Very professional and knowledgeable I highly recommend them.

I was tight for time and they scheduled me in. Huge help. And the tech they sent was professional, personable and quick. These folks get the nod for all HVAC related work in the future.

Our whole family in the area uses Minuteman Services! From electrical work to HVAC work. We just had them install two brand new heating systems on Dec 12 & 13th 2024. The AC systems will be installed in the spring. Very professional and willing to answer all my questions. Their workers were very respectful of the house when they did the install putting down floor protectant and cleaning up everything.

I was very pleased with the thorough evaluation and repair that Travis provided. In the future, I will contact your company and request Travis. Thank you!

They were very helpful, explained the wiring problems and went above and beyond in getting the parts we needed. They were polite, respectful of our home, and diligently cleaned up after their work. I appreciated very all their hard work.

They did an excellent job in diagnosing and repairing the two issues we had. They were courteous and tidy during their visit. I would definately use them again.

Timely and professional. Stayed to get the job done during the holidays. Would recommend.

All the guys at minute man services did a great job at our place. we were impressed with thier professional job they did for us. They all were courteous and punctual. They cleaned up too!! I would recommend then highly. Thank you again.

They service anything from small jobs to big jobs. Extremely hard to find a company that will do a small electrical job. These guys do it all. Fast,friendly service for a reasonable price. Highly recommend this company for your electrical needs and service 👏.

I was having an issue with a breaker and these folks did a great job fixing it. Ted pinpointed the problem and Shane and crew came out and fixed it. I highly recommend this company!

We were very impressed in the timely manner that Minuteman serviced our furnace! They were very helpful and answered all of our questions. We will be calling them again!

Great service, did exactly what they said they would do and got the new furnace installed.

Ted did some electrical work for us, was super responsive on the phone and helped me trouble shoot multiple issues that were 100% my ignorance not any fault of the work he did. He also made some thoughtful suggestions to improve the ideas we had. Update Dec 2024: I needed electrical work done on a new home after moving and Minuteman came through again! They were on time, had good ideas to help me get all the outlets i needed and were diligent about making sure I had everything done to my satisfaction. Great crew. Great service.

These guys always do great work and respond right away. Highly recommend for all HVAC needs

Great company. Travis communicated well, showed up when he said he would, offered a timely appointment and options to proactively care for my equipment going forward. That was a painless service call- broken heater experience! Thank you.

Minuteman's electricians are awesome. I needed help with some breakers that were constantly flipping. They were able to quickly identify the issue and gave me several options on what to do. Their bid was in range of what I would expect that kind of repair to take. They were very professional, on time, and patient with all my questions so I can be a better informed homeowner. 5/5. I highly recommend them!

Fast. Good work. Great prices. They are great to work with. Highly recommend

This Crew did an amazing job that came through and did what they needed to do showed me after what they did and cleaned up everything after themselves and sat and explained and had asked us if we had any questions or if we need anything

Justin and Jarod ROCK!!...AND TRAVIS 😉 Sorry Travis, for some reason I keep mistaking you for a Justin. Travis, ROCKS!!! It is so good to have our furnace up and running again. Great work and fair price. Will be wanting a complete furnace upgrade through Minuteman. Cannot say enough positive things about this company.

Jarrod was the absolute best. He came and fixed our issue with our heat. He was fast and he did an amazing just. 10/10 service. Ask for Jarrod he did the best service and was professional.

Very responsive and gave me great customer service! They were able to get out there the same day and fix my furnace. Highly recommend 👍

We used Minuteman Services to do an annual service on the HVAC system in our office. They were very easy to work with and did a great job. Their fees were not exorbitant either! They didn't waste time, explained things to me and offered to set up a maintenance plan for winter and summer. I would highly recommend them for both home and office HVAC needs.

Minuteman was great. Very responsive and flexible, timely delivery, made the whole swap-out a complete breeze. Highly recommend.

My main reason for replacing my old HVAC system is to save money on my high electrical bill. Minute Man Service did an outstanding job replacing my 20 year old HVAC system and replaced it with a more efficient HVAC system that includes a 2 stage a/c & thermostat. Jarrod Mount was the tech who removed the old system and installed the new system. Jarrod was also the person who came to my house and submitted the bid I could not reject because of the very reasonable price. I therefore give Minuteman Services my highest recommendation.

This is best I've worked with. Affordable, knowledgeable, friendly and professional! I will definitely call on them again. Thank you guys.

Ted and his crew came on time, established their plan of action, ran wiring through the crawlspace to exterior conduit and heat cables on the roof, ensured they left no trash or tracks in spite of the rain and carefully explained how to use the system before they left. A superb job by a group of professionals!

Great service. Friendly, detail oriented and very professional. A great company for your electrical needs. I will use this company again and again.

I had the best experience with Jarrod, Shane and the Minuteman Services crew. They were honest, reliable & professional to work with. They installed a cadet heater, sub panel, washer & dryer plugs as well as interior and exterior lights in our Shed. They even helped me choose the fixtures which I appreciated! They completed the entire job within one day making sure they did not interrupt our renters at our Cabin which was very thoughtful. Can't wait to work with them again!

Very prompt service, extremely knowledgeable staff and courteous interaction.

Travis was very polite, knowledgeable, and efficient. He explained Contracts for service and we were pleased with no hidden costs. We’re confident we’ll get what we pay for.

Minuteman services was amazing! They provided a quote for my furnace replacement, answered all of my questions, and provided wonderful communication. The day they installed my new furnace, they were very kind and did a great job. If you need a new furnace, this is the service to use! Thank you Minuteman Services!

My husband and I just opened a new business, and needed some last minute electrical work done before we could open. Minute Man was able to get there very quickly and help us with what we needed for a reasonable price. I definitely recommend them!

We used them for an electrical problem in a mobile home. They were very quick on finding the problem and getting it fixed. Price was very fair! Highly recommend them!

Minuteman services did a fantastic job installing the electrical in our basement. They were quick to respond and schedule us. The communication was great as well during the install. We were never left wondering if or when something would be done. They gave clear timelines and stuck to them. The company was very honest and reasonable.

Ted and Shane did excellent work upsizing my electrical panel and connecting the heat tape for my gutters. They are both easy to talk to and very professional. I highly recommend their work to anyone.

Always an excellent job. These guys are professionals and know what they are doing. And we can always count on them.

Great experience with this company. First of all honesty and integrity, I appreciated his friendliness, communication, he was on time, even had it done before he thought it would be. Definitely would recommend them. Local Family owned and operated was also a plus for me. Sitting here in my nice cool house on a hot day! Thanks MinuteMan Services!

My air conditioner quit working. Called Minuteman Services the next morning and they showed up by noon and had the issue resolved within the hour. Great customer service, and quick response time.

These guys are amazing, excellent technicians and fair prices. you guys rock!!!

Completely recommend Minuteman Services. We have had them repair our AC unit at a much more reasonable price than competitors. Most recently they have done annual maintenance on our AC unit and furnace. The techs and the owners are honest, prompt, courteous, helpful, and knowledgeable and won’t try to sell you unnecessary services. I will call them every time for our HVAC needs.

Jarrod and his team are amazing and very professional and transparent. Highly recommended for all your service needs!!

Minutemen services was fantastic to work with! We had to replace our furnace and our ac. They were quick and efficient and definitely had a much more reasonable price than some other companies that are around town. Highly recommend them to anyone.

Always makes our tenants a priority and is very friendly and knowledgeable. These guy are my go to for any HVAC or Electrical needs!

Ted and his team did an excellent job in installing the electrical wirings and connection for my heat tape. I highly recommend him.

Friendly. On-time. Work was done right. Reasonable prices. Can't go wrong with the locally owned Minutemen!

During the last repair of our AC unit, we spoke with Minuteman about the eventual replacement of our AC unit. Unfortunately, that happened sooner rather than later (no fault of Minute Service) and they were able to give us an accurate quote, without having to come back, because they had taken some detailed notes and photos the previous service visit. They provided a fair and reasonable quote and even offered to help provide some temporary measures to ensure we had some relief from the hottest temps of the summer so far. Great work, they protected the area they were working from damage and kept me informed of the status. Highly recommend Minuteman Service for any of your HVAC needs

We used Minuteman to service our furnace and to fix a few electrical issues we had to address before selling. Communication and scheduling were great, I was able to get someone to my home within the same week. I felt they were very knowledgeable and efficient; I also feel that I paid a fair price for the service. I would highly recommend for any electrical or HVAC needs.

I can not say enough positive things about this service! Travis was extremely professional- always kept us informed on status via a quick text update, the price was extremely reasonable and the service was much quicker than we expected during a very busy season! Give them a call- you won’t regret it!

Travis was AMAZING. Showed up early, was so kind, responsive, and taught as he went. His prices were so fair! You have a customer for life!

I had a fire at my house due to my AC and needed electrical. I was recommended Minuteman Services by a co-worker. I am so glad she did. Jarrod got someone out to get me a quote same day. When I was ready for the repairs, I called Ted and he set me up the next day. Everyone we have come in contact with has been very nice and understanding. Their prices are amazing too. I will be using Minuteman Services for all my HVAC and electrical needs from now on.

Amazing service, outstanding work by Travis. Affordable prices. I’ll be using them again in the near future

Super friendly, easy to work with. They were in and out. Great communication

Jordan and Aiden were amazing. The customer service was exceptional and they definitely went the extra mile for me and my business! I Highly recommend them!

Great Service and great job on all their jobs they did for us!! I recommend them highly!!

I am a Senior so having a company like Minute Man do repairs & installations with such professionalism & caring was an extremely positive experience. Dylan, Devon & Travis are an outstanding team of workers. When they left I had no questions because they explained & went over everything. As well as the clean up, it was as if no one had been here. Thank you!

Travis was quick to respond to our request for assistance in setting up a new mini-split system. The team was very good to work with and their installation was clean and quick. They were able to finish in 3 days after projecting 4 days originally. They were very good to communicate alterations that were necessary and include us in the decision. The team was considerate of our schedule and made sure we were pleased with the end product, which we are.

Ted was great when I called to schedule and followed up the day of service. Shane called to let me know he was on the way and did a great job. He even cleaned up behind himself, the only way you could tell he was there, was the excellent job done. All around great experience and fair price. Thank you so much.

I filled out a request online and they contacted me that same day. They showed up the next day to do a bid and started the job the following business day! They did a great job, were affordable, professional and courteous! I would highly recommend Minuteman Services for your electrical work!

We had minute man services replace our furnace, I am very pleased with their work! Definitely will be recommending to family/friends.

I needed help with my furnace in a hurry and had no idea who to trust. A friend recommended Minute Man and they were great! Timely, professional, quality service for a good price. I highly recommend them to others!

We had Minuteman do some electrical work for us recently, running new ethernet cable for security cameras. Shayne was very responsive, prompt, friendly, and did a great job. Definitely recommend them!

Minuteman came out to replace our heaters, put in new ventilation fans, and install a heating/AC unit. They were very respectful, friendly, and even took time to play fetch with our dog. They were alway here when they said they would be, and called each time to let us know they were on their way. They took care to treat our home like their own. They took precautions to keep things clean, and left the floors and things as clean or cleaner than when they got here. Can not recommend them enough!!!

Contacted me back very quickly after waiting over a year for a previous company to show up. They were quick and professional. Awesome work. Jordan and devyn did amazing

Most Common Garage Heater Questions
Garage heater installation helps protect tools, vehicles, and equipment from cold damage. It also makes your space more usable during winter months. Minuteman Services installs garage heaters to improve comfort, safety, and long-term performance.
The best type of garage heater depends on the size of your garage, available utilities, insulation, and how often you plan to use the space. Gas heaters are ideal for large garages or detached structures that need strong, fast heat. They require a gas line and proper ventilation to operate safely. Electric heaters work well in smaller or insulated garages and are often easier to install. These models are quiet, clean, and ideal for attached garages or spaces with limited ventilation. Minuteman Services installs both types and helps you compare fuel type, installation cost, and long-term efficiency. Our technician will assess your garage and recommend the right model based on your needs.
We calculate the required BTU output based on your garage’s square footage, ceiling height, and insulation level. Oversized units can waste energy while undersized ones struggle to keep up. We also consider heater style, including wall-mounted, ceiling-mounted, and portable units. Our goal is to find a unit that fits your daily use, budget, and layout without sacrificing performance. We explain all options clearly and only recommend models that meet building code and safety standards. Each heater is installed securely and tested for even heat distribution and safe startup. We make sure the model you choose delivers reliable, consistent heating.
Minuteman Services helps you choose and install the best garage heater for long-term comfort and performance. We explain all options, handle the full installation, and test every component for safety and efficiency. You get expert service and lasting results from start to finish.
Preparing your garage for a heater installation starts with clearing the area where the unit will be mounted. The space should be free of storage racks, vehicles, or other objects that block airflow or limit access. If you’re installing a ceiling-mounted unit, make sure the ceiling is structurally sound and free of water damage or exposed insulation. For gas units, confirm that your garage has access to a gas line or can be routed safely by our technician. For electric heaters, check that your electrical panel has enough capacity to support a dedicated circuit. Minuteman Services handles all electrical and gas connections, but these steps help speed up the process. We provide detailed preparation instructions before the installation date.
Our technician inspects your garage during the site visit to confirm the best location for the heater. We consider where you work most, how the air will flow, and where controls should be mounted for easy access. We also look for potential obstacles like water lines, ductwork, or ceiling obstructions. If any changes are needed, we explain them before starting the job. Once approved, we complete all mounting, wiring, venting, and control setup to meet safety standards. We test the system fully and walk you through basic operation and maintenance. We leave the garage clean and ready for immediate use.
Minuteman Services makes preparation simple with clear communication and expert planning. We handle the hard parts and guide you through any prep steps needed before the job starts. You get a smooth installation process and a garage heater that works the right way from day one.
Yes, Minuteman Services provides emergency garage heater installation and repair when fast heat is needed to protect your garage space. Cold snaps can quickly cause damage to tools, stored items, or even water lines inside attached garages. Our licensed technicians respond quickly to install new units or restore failed systems. We inspect all connections, venting, and safety features before restoring heat. We also carry high-demand parts and common heater models to help complete emergency service in one visit. Emergency installation includes full system testing and setup so you get fast, safe, and reliable heat.

Minuteman Services is ready to help when heating failure becomes urgent. We restore comfort and protect your garage with fast service, licensed installation, and expert repair. When emergency heating is needed, we are the team you can count on.
With proper installation and regular maintenance, a garage heater can last between 10 and 20 years. Electric units often last longer due to fewer moving parts and lower maintenance needs. Gas heaters require more frequent inspection, especially around the burner, venting, and gas valve systems. Minuteman Services helps extend the life of your garage heater by offering seasonal tune-ups and system checks. We clean internal components, test safety controls, and verify that the unit reaches and maintains the correct temperature. We also inspect electrical connections or gas lines for corrosion, wear, or buildup. Preventive maintenance improves performance, reduces energy use, and helps avoid emergency repairs.
During maintenance, our technician also checks the thermostat and airflow pattern to make sure the heater distributes heat evenly. We inspect mounting brackets, electrical breakers, and any ducting to confirm nothing has shifted or come loose over time. We also test shutdown and startup cycles for reliability and energy efficiency. If any parts show signs of wear, we explain the problem and offer repair options before they lead to full system failure. Regular care lowers long-term costs and keeps your space comfortable through winter. Skipping maintenance shortens heater life and increases repair risks. We make it easy to stay on schedule with service plans that include automatic reminders.
Minuteman Services helps homeowners get the most out of their garage heaters. We provide professional care that extends the lifespan of your system and keeps it running safely year after year. With our team, you get long-term performance, reliable heat, and expert service every step of the way.
Yes, garage heater installation is safe for attached garages when done correctly by a licensed professional. Safety depends on choosing the right heater type and ensuring proper clearance, wiring, and ventilation. Gas heaters must be installed with sealed combustion chambers or direct venting to avoid any risk of carbon monoxide entering the home. Electric heaters are often recommended for attached garages because they require no fuel lines and produce no combustion gases. Minuteman Services installs both gas and electric garage heaters while following all local building and safety codes. We assess your garage layout, fuel access, and home structure before recommending a safe solution. All connections are tested before we leave to ensure safe, efficient heating.
Our technicians follow strict safety protocols, especially in spaces that share walls or access points with the home. For gas heaters, we install venting systems that direct exhaust safely outside and use combustion air from the exterior. This setup reduces indoor air pressure issues and keeps your living space protected. We also inspect existing ventilation and make adjustments if needed to meet current safety standards. For electric heaters, we install dedicated circuits to prevent overloads or electrical hazards. We test the system, confirm airflow, and ensure the heater can operate safely without posing risks to walls or insulation. We also recommend installing a carbon monoxide detector in or near the garage when using a gas unit.
Minuteman Services installs garage heaters in attached garages with safety and performance as top priorities. We evaluate every detail of the space and deliver a heating solution that is code-compliant and worry-free. You can rely on our team for expert work and full transparency throughout the process.
Yes, most garage heaters can be controlled with a thermostat for better comfort and energy savings. Thermostats allow you to maintain a consistent temperature in your garage without constantly adjusting settings manually. Many units come with built-in thermostats, while others can be connected to wall-mounted or programmable controls. Minuteman Services installs garage heaters with thermostat options tailored to your usage and space layout. We install simple dial thermostats, digital programmable units, or smart thermostats depending on the system and your preferences. A thermostat makes your heater more efficient and extends its lifespan by avoiding constant cycling. It also gives you better control over how and when your garage is heated.
Our technician will explain the available thermostat options during your installation. For electric heaters, a wired wall thermostat can be installed to replace onboard controls or act as a remote temperature sensor. For gas units, thermostats are usually installed at a comfortable eye level and connected to the control board for easy adjustments. Some models offer Wi-Fi access, allowing you to manage the garage temperature from your phone or tablet. We test all controls after installation to ensure accurate temperature readings and smooth operation. We also show you how to adjust temperature settings and set schedules if your model allows it. Thermostat placement is planned to avoid drafts, heat sources, and poor readings.
Minuteman Services provides complete thermostat setup during every garage heater installation. We ensure the control system matches your heater and gives you full control of your space. You get better performance, easier operation, and more efficient heating with every use.
Yes, a properly installed and maintained garage heater can run all day during the winter, as long as it is operating within its rated capacity and safety limits. Continuous use is common for people who use their garages as workspaces, gyms, or vehicle storage. However, the key to safe all-day use is choosing the right heater, installing it correctly, and ensuring proper ventilation if it is a gas model. Minuteman Services installs garage heaters designed for daily use in winter conditions. We size the unit correctly based on square footage and insulation levels to ensure it can run efficiently without overheating or short cycling. Electric models are best for constant heat in smaller garages, while gas models perform better in larger or poorly insulated spaces. Both types must be monitored for airflow and general condition throughout the season.
Our technician explains proper usage during installation, including how long to run the system and what signs to watch for. We install thermostats or timers to help regulate use and prevent unnecessary energy waste. We also recommend checking filters, vents, and clearance space regularly to keep airflow strong and steady. For gas units, we confirm that combustion air is available and that exhaust gases are venting safely at all times. We also encourage adding carbon monoxide detectors in spaces where gas heat is used continuously. Routine maintenance, especially before and after heavy use, helps keep the system running safely and reliably. Running your heater all day is safe if the system is properly maintained and installed to code.
Minuteman Services installs garage heaters that are built for full-time winter use. We provide all the support, instructions, and maintenance tips you need to run your heater safely every day. When you use your garage often, we deliver heating that works the way you need it.
The size of your garage heater depends on the square footage of the space, ceiling height, insulation level, and how often the area is used. Heaters are typically rated in BTUs for gas models or watts for electric models. A one-car garage usually needs around 9,000 to 12,000 BTUs, while a two-car garage may need 20,000 to 30,000 BTUs. Poor insulation, cold climates, or detached garages require more heating power to reach and maintain a comfortable temperature. Minuteman Services calculates the correct heater size by evaluating your garage’s layout, construction, and use. We do not rely on guesswork or one-size-fits-all solutions. Our goal is to match your garage to a heater that performs well without wasting energy.
We assess the dimensions of your space and look for air leaks, gaps, or uninsulated walls that may affect heat retention. We also ask how you use your garage to determine how often it will be heated and to what temperature. A garage used for daily work may need stronger output than a space used occasionally for storage. Once we identify your needs, we recommend several models that meet the required heating load. Each option is explained clearly so you can compare features, performance, and cost. We also ensure that your electrical panel or gas supply can support the chosen heater before we begin installation. Every unit is tested after setup to make sure it heats the space evenly and safely.
Minuteman Services ensures your garage heater is sized and installed for reliable winter performance. We help you get the most out of your system by matching it to your garage’s exact needs. With the right heater in place, your space stays warm, safe, and usable in any weather.
