Local, RI-licensed, factory-trained on Mitsubishi, Bosch, Carrier, Trane, Rheem, and most major brands. ZIPs we cover here: 02919.

Horizon HVAC is built to be the only HVAC number Johnston homeowners need to keep. We handle the full range — repairs (same-day in 90%+ of cases), full system replacements (free in-home quotes within 24 hours), and maintenance plans starting at $14/mo. Same crew, same trucks, same accountability across all three. Johnston is a heavy mix of bungalows and ranches built between 1940 and 1980, typical of the inner suburb ring. Most homes here are on natural gas with original or first-replacement forced-air systems.
Our installer crew is factory-trained across Mitsubishi, Bosch, Carrier, Trane, Rheem, Goodman, Burnham, Crown, Rinnai, Lochinvar, and Viessmann. That breadth matters in Johnston — older homes often need specific boiler brands, newer homes get high-efficiency furnaces, and heat pump retrofits cross multiple manufacturers. We recommend the right system for your house, not the brand we have a sales spiff on.
On the maintenance side, Comfort Club ($14/mo single-system, $29 two-system, $59 three-plus) includes annual tune-ups, priority dispatch ahead of walk-ins, 15% off any repairs that come up, and waived diagnostic fees. Members average 60% fewer emergency calls year over year — the math works because most failures are caught at tune-up before they become breakdowns.
