“Our heat pump died at 2 AM during that February cold snap when temperatures hit 8 degrees. I called three other companies first – two didn’t even answer, and one said they couldn’t come out until the following afternoon. Central Plumbing answered immediately and had a technician at our house near Sandy Run within 45 minutes. He diagnosed a failed compressor and had our backup heating running while he ordered parts. The next morning, they installed a new unit that’s been flawless ever since.” – Patricia, Maple Glen neighborhood
“When our central air system started making horrible grinding noises on the hottest day in July, I was terrified we’d be stuck without cooling for days like happened to our neighbor with another company. Central Plumbing’s technician arrived within an hour, found a failing blower motor, and had a replacement installed the same afternoon. The upfront pricing was exactly what they quoted – no surprises or hidden fees like we’d experienced before.” – David, near Fort Washington Office Park
“As a property manager for several Dresher rental properties, I needed an HVAC company I could count on for quick, reliable service. Central Plumbing has handled everything from routine maintenance to emergency furnace replacements, always with professional technicians who explain what they’re doing and why.

We recommend scheduling professional HVAC maintenance twice yearly – once in spring for your cooling system and once in fall for your heating equipment. Pennsylvania’s demanding climate with hot, humid summers and cold winters puts significant stress on HVAC systems, making regular maintenance essential for reliable operation. Our comprehensive maintenance visits include cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting ductwork, testing safety controls, and identifying potential problems before they cause breakdowns. Central Plumbing’s preventive maintenance programs have proven to reduce emergency calls by 70% while extending equipment life by several years, saving Dresher homeowners substantial money on both repairs and energy costs.
For Dresher’s climate and energy costs, we typically recommend air conditioning systems with SEER ratings between 16 and 20, depending on your budget and efficiency goals. Higher SEER ratings provide greater energy savings during our hot Pennsylvania summers, but the initial investment must make financial sense for your specific situation. Our NATE-certified technicians will calculate the right system size using Manual J load calculations, ensuring your new AC operates efficiently without being oversized or undersized. Central Plumbing helps Dresher homeowners choose ENERGY STAR certified equipment that qualifies for utility rebates and tax incentives, maximizing your return on investment while ensuring years of reliable cooling comfort.
Our emergency response time for Dresher and throughout Montgomery County is under 60 minutes, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Unlike many HVAC companies that offer limited after-hours service or charge excessive premium rates, we maintain full emergency availability because we understand that heating and cooling failures don’t wait for convenient times. Whether your furnace quits during a winter storm or your air conditioner fails during a summer heatwave, our fully-stocked service vehicles and experienced technicians can typically restore comfort the same day. Central Plumbing’s emergency service includes upfront pricing even for after-hours calls, so Dresher residents never face surprise charges during stressful situations.
Absolutely – we specialize in integrating modern, high-efficiency HVAC systems into Dresher’s mix of older and newer homes. Many established properties in areas like Maple Glen and near Upper Dublin Road present unique challenges for HVAC installations, from limited space for ductwork to electrical upgrades needed for modern equipment. Our experienced technicians understand these challenges and offer creative solutions like ductless mini-split systems, high-velocity ductwork, and zoned comfort systems that work beautifully in older architecture. Central Plumbing also handles all necessary permits and ensures installations meet current building codes while preserving the character and integrity of your home. We’re experts at maximizing efficiency and comfort even in properties that weren’t originally designed for central air conditioning.
