Unlike some local competitors who surprise customers with hidden fees and unclear pricing, we provide upfront, transparent pricing before we begin any work. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying for, with no surprise charges or inflated emergency rates that some companies use to take advantage of desperate customers.
Our NATE-certified technicians undergo rigorous training and testing that many other providers simply don’t require.

We’ve worked on everything from the historic properties near the town center to the modern developments around Warrington Township, so we understand the unique challenges each type of construction presents.
National chain competitors often follow rigid corporate policies that don’t allow for flexibility in addressing each customer’s unique situation. As a locally owned and operated company, we can make decisions quickly and adapt our approach to meet your specific needs and budget.

Our preventive maintenance programs have been proven to reduce emergency calls while extending system life and efficiency, something that many other local providers simply don’t offer with the same level of comprehensive coverage and follow-through.
Lisa from the Forest Grove Park area called us at 2 AM on a frigid January night when her heat pump completely stopped working. With temperatures dropping to 8 degrees and two young children in the house, she was panicked after another local company told her they couldn’t come out until the following afternoon.
Our NATE-certified technician arrived in just 45 minutes and quickly diagnosed a failed compressor. “I couldn’t believe they actually showed up that fast in the middle of the night,” Lisa told us. “The technician was so professional and had my heat restored within two hours. My kids never even woke up cold.”
David, who owns a small business near County Line Road, faced a complete HVAC system failure during a busy summer week when his aging rooftop unit finally gave out.

Their upfront pricing meant no surprises, and the new unit has cut my energy costs by 30 percent.”

This is one of the most common questions we receive from Jamison homeowners, especially those with older systems. Generally, if your system is over 15 years old and requiring frequent repairs, replacement often makes more financial sense.
Central Plumbing provides honest assessments based on factors like repair costs versus replacement costs, energy efficiency ratings, and reliability concerns. We’ll never pressure you into unnecessary replacements, but we’ll help you understand when investing in a new high-efficiency system will save money long-term through reduced energy bills and fewer repair calls.
For our climate in Jamison and throughout Montgomery County, we typically recommend systems with SEER ratings of 16 or higher for optimal energy efficiency. Higher SEER ratings mean greater energy savings, especially during our hot, humid summers when air conditioning runs frequently.
Our NATE-certified technicians will calculate the proper BTU capacity for your specific home size and layout, then recommend ENERGY STAR certified equipment that provides the best balance of efficiency, reliability, and upfront cost for your situation.
We recommend bi-annual maintenance β spring tune-ups for your cooling system and fall tune-ups for your heating system. Our comprehensive maintenance includes cleaning or replacing air filters, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting heat exchangers and condensers, testing thermostat operation, and identifying potential problems before they become expensive emergencies.
Central Plumbing’s preventive maintenance programs have been proven to reduce emergency breakdowns by up to 70 percent while extending system life significantly. Regular maintenance also ensures your warranty remains valid and your system operates at peak efficiency.
Absolutely! This is a specialty of ours, given the number of historic homes in central Jamison. Ductless mini-split systems are perfect for older properties because they don’t require extensive ductwork installation that would disrupt your home’s character.
These systems provide excellent heating and cooling efficiency with individual zone control, allowing you to heat or cool only the rooms you’re using. Central Plumbing has extensive experience installing these systems in historic properties while maintaining their architectural integrity and charm.
