Expert Cooling Services for Hot Franklin Summers
When summer temperatures rise in Franklin, a reliable cooling system becomes essential for your family’s comfort. G&C Plumbing & Heating provides comprehensive air conditioning services to keep your home cool when you need it most.
Whether you need emergency AC repair for a system that’s suddenly quit working, routine maintenance to prevent breakdowns and extend your system’s lifespan, or complete installation of a new, energy-efficient system, our skilled technicians deliver solutions tailored to your home’s specific needs.
We specialize in both traditional central air conditioning systems and modern alternatives like ductless mini-splits, which provide targeted cooling without extensive ductwork. For homes in drier areas, we also offer swamp coolers (evaporative cooling), which can provide efficient cooling with less energy consumption than conventional AC.
For maximum comfort and efficiency, ask about our zoned cooling options that allow you to control temperatures in different areas of your home independently, saving energy by cooling only the spaces you’re using.
Comprehensive Heating Solutions for Franklin’s Cold Winters
When winter strikes Franklin with its freezing temperatures, a dependable heating system is essential. If you have a failing furnace, an inefficient boiler, or simply want to upgrade to a more energy-efficient system, G&C Plumbing & Heating has reliable heating solutions for every home.
Our heating services include:
- Emergency Heating Repair – When your furnace or boiler fails, our quick-response team provides fast, effective repairs to restore your comfort and safety.
- Heating System Maintenance – Regular tune-ups keep your system running efficiently, prevent breakdowns, and extend the lifespan of your equipment.
- New Heating Installations – If you need a replacement for an aging system or are upgrading, our experts will recommend and install the perfect furnace or boiler for your home and budget.
We service both furnaces and boilers with equal expertise, ensuring that no matter what type of heating system you have, our team can keep it running at peak performance or help you select a new, more efficient model.
Radiant Heating Solutions
Experience the luxury of warm floors on cold winter mornings with our radiant heating installations. G&C specializes in both indoor radiant floor systems for bathrooms, kitchens, and whole-home applications, as well as outdoor solutions for driveways and walkways that eliminate snow shoveling. Radiant heat provides exceptionally comfortable, even warmth without the drafts or noise of forced-air systems, while operating more efficiently than many traditional heating methods.
Gas Fireplace Services
Combine the cozy ambiance of a traditional fireplace with the convenience and efficiency of modern gas heating. Our gas fireplace services include new installations, conversions from wood-burning to gas, and regular maintenance to ensure safe, efficient operation. Gas fireplaces provide instant warmth, require minimal maintenance, and can be controlled with the touch of a button, giving you all the comfort of a real fire without the work or mess.
Heat Pump Solutions for Year-Round Comfort
Heat pumps offer both heating and cooling from one system while delivering remarkable energy efficiency. G&C Plumbing & Heating specializes in ductless heat pump installations, perfect for homes without existing ductwork.
These systems extract heat from the outdoor air (even in cold temperatures) to warm your home in winter and reverse the process to cool your home in summer. For Franklin homeowners looking to reduce energy bills while improving comfort, heat pumps are ideal.
One of the biggest advantages of ductless heat pump systems is zoned comfort control. With individual air handlers in different rooms or areas, you can set different temperatures throughout your home, heating or cooling only the spaces you’re using. This targeted approach improves comfort and can significantly reduce energy consumption.
The Easiest Way to Stay Ahead of Home Repairs
Our Priority Plan keeps your systems in check with annual maintenance, front-of-the-line service, and longer warranties. No stress, no surprises—just smart, preventive care from a team you already trust.

Indoor Air Quality Solutions for a Healthier Home
The air inside your Franklin home could be more polluted than the air outside. G&C Plumbing & Heating offers comprehensive indoor air quality solutions to help you breathe easier and live healthier.
- Air Purification and Filtration – Advanced whole-home air purifiers and high-efficiency filters can remove up to 99.98% of airborne particles, including dust, pollen, pet dander, and even bacteria and viruses. These systems work with your existing HVAC equipment to clean the air throughout your entire home, not just in a single room.
- Duct Cleaning – Over time, your home’s ductwork can accumulate dust, allergens, and even mold. Our professional duct cleaning service removes these contaminants, improving both your system’s efficiency and your home’s air quality. Regular duct cleaning is especially beneficial for households with allergies, asthma, or respiratory conditions.
Professional Air Quality Testing
Not sure what’s affecting your home’s air quality? Our comprehensive testing identifies common indoor pollutants like mold spores, VOCs, dust mites, and other allergens that may be impacting your family’s health. Using advanced testing equipment, we can pinpoint specific air quality issues and recommend targeted solutions. This data-driven approach ensures you’re addressing the actual problems affecting your home’s air rather than guessing at the causes.
Duct Sealing Services
Leaky ductwork can reduce your HVAC system’s efficiency by up to 30% while allowing dust and allergens to enter your air supply. Our professional duct sealing service locates and seals these leaks, improving system performance and air quality simultaneously. Using specialized equipment and materials, we can access and seal leaks that traditional methods can’t reach, resulting in better efficiency, improved comfort, and healthier air throughout your Franklin home.
Smart Thermostat Installation
Transform how you control your home’s comfort with our smart thermostat installation services. Today’s advanced thermostats learn your schedule, adjust automatically to save energy, and can be controlled from anywhere using your smartphone. Our experts will help you select the right smart thermostat for your system and lifestyle, then provide professional installation and programming to ensure you get all the comfort and efficiency benefits these devices offer.
Whole-Home Humidity Control Solutions
G&C Plumbing & Heating offers complete humidity control solutions to maintain ideal moisture levels in your home regardless of season.
During winter, our whole-home humidifiers add moisture to your heated air, preventing the dry conditions that cause static electricity, dry skin, and respiratory irritation. Proper humidity levels also make your home feel warmer at lower temperatures, potentially reducing heating costs.
In summer, whole-home dehumidifiers work alongside your air conditioning to remove excess moisture, making your home feel cooler and more comfortable while reducing the risk of mold and mildew growth. Unlike portable units, our whole-home solutions work silently in the background to maintain ideal humidity levels throughout your entire house.
Both systems integrate seamlessly with your existing HVAC equipment, providing automatic humidity control that enhances comfort while protecting your home and furnishings from the damage extreme moisture levels can cause.

For optimal performance in Franklin’s climate, we recommend seasonal maintenance – once in spring before cooling season and again in fall before heating season. This twice-yearly schedule ensures your system is ready for the demands of both our hot, humid summers and cold winters, while extending equipment life and preventing costly breakdowns during extreme weather.
Watch for these warning signs: unusually high energy bills, inconsistent cooling throughout your home, strange noises during operation, frequent cycling on and off, reduced airflow from vents, or a system that’s more than 10-15 years old. If you notice these issues in your Franklin home, it’s time to call G&C Plumbing & Heating for a professional assessment.
Absolutely! Ductless mini-splits are excellent for Franklin homes, especially older properties without existing ductwork or homes needing zoned comfort solutions. They provide efficient heating and cooling, operate quietly, and allow room-by-room temperature control – perfect for our variable New England climate where you might need heating in one area and cooling in another.
To combat Franklin’s seasonal allergens, we recommend a multi-layered approach: install high-efficiency air filters (MERV 11 or higher), consider whole-home air purification systems that capture even microscopic particles, schedule professional duct cleaning to remove accumulated allergens, and maintain proper humidity levels (40-60%) to discourage dust mites and mold growth.
Smart thermostats offer significant advantages for Franklin homeowners, including energy savings of 10-15% on heating and cooling costs, remote temperature control via smartphone, learning your schedule to optimize comfort, providing maintenance reminders, and adjusting automatically when you’re away. They’re particularly valuable in our region’s variable climate where temperatures can fluctuate dramatically.
With proper maintenance, you can expect a furnace to last 15-20 years, air conditioners and heat pumps 10-15 years, and boilers 20-30 years in Franklin’s climate. However, these lifespans depend on factors including usage patterns, maintenance frequency, and installation quality. Regular professional maintenance from G&C Plumbing & Heating can significantly extend your system’s useful life.
