Our installation workflow:
- Home assessment and room-by-room load calculations to select the right capacity.

- Combustion analysis to confirm safe operation and efficient fuel use.
Heat pump tune-ups:
- Coil cleaning, refrigerant level checks, blower inspections, outdoor unit clearance, and defrost cycle testing.
Ductless mini split care:
- Filter cleaning, refrigerant checks, and system inspection twice a year, before heating and before cooling.
S.E.A. plan benefits for members:
- Priority service, no overtime charges, and 15% off parts and labor.

Boilers, Radiant Heat, and Specialty Systems
If your Roanoke home uses a boiler, you need a partner who understands hydronics. We service and replace boilers, including circulators, expansion tanks, zoning, and control strategies to keep radiators or in-floor loops running smoothly. We also support hybrid systems and dual-fuel configurations that switch between gas heat and heat pump operation for the best balance of comfort and cost.
Ductless and Geothermal Options for Unique Spaces
Ductless mini splits are great for sunrooms, pole barns, and finished attics. They heat specific zones without extending ductwork and can be highly efficient.
Geothermal taps steady ground temperatures to reduce energy use and protect against outdoor swings. With proper installation and maintenance, the heat pump can last up to 25 years and the loop up to 50 years. We handle loop design, pump and heat exchanger checks, and backup heat integration.
Commercial Heating Solutions for Local Businesses
From shops near the Roanoke park to facilities along the US-24 corridor, we design and maintain heating systems that control costs and minimize downtime. Services include load calculations, zoning, rooftop units, packaged systems, and proactive maintenance agreements. Expect prompt communication, clear proposals, and a safety-first approach that respects your schedule.
Transparent Pricing, Financing, and Rebates
You will always see pricing before work starts. For replacements, we present good, better, best options with the total cost, expected efficiency, and available financing. We help you navigate utility rebates through providers like NIPSCO when applicable. We have a track record of helping customers secure available rebates, supported by our long history and factory-authorized expertise.
Safety and Code Compliance Come Standard

What Homeowners Are Saying
"I would highly recommend using this company for any ac/heating needs. They were on time and explained the system that they installed. Very friendly and professional." –Ericka M., Heating System Installation
"Excellent service. Doc Dancer has been servicing my furnace and AC for the last few years. Our 20-year-old furnace died and we were without heat. Doc Dancer dropped off multiple electric heaters and was able to install a full new heating and air conditioning system within three business days of notifying them of our situation. They really went above and beyond. Thank you, Dale and the Doc Dancer team! ... Nate came out for the annual maintenance check, and stayed until he was sure everything was working appropriately. He ran to a supplier to pick up a special part we needed for our humidifier, and got everything done that day. Thanks, Nate!" –Megan G., Furnace Replacement
