Heating and Cooling
Air Conditioning Repair and Replacement in Exton
AC repair in Exton, PA covers systems that run all afternoon without catching up, trip the breaker, or ice over at the coil. We fix what can be fixed and replace what can’t, sized for the house rather than the sales target.
Heating Repair and Furnace Replacement
A furnace that won’t ignite, a heat pump stuck blowing cool air, a boiler that bangs. We diagnose it, give you the price, then fix it, and when a replacement is the better buy we’ll say so plainly.
Heat Pumps
Close to half of 19341 homes heat with electricity, and a heat pump is the most efficient way to do it. We install, repair, and replace them, and we tune them so they hold up through a January cold snap.
HVAC Maintenance
Two visits a year, one before cooling season and one before heating season, with a reminder card mailed to the house. Worn parts get replaced before they take the system down with them.
Ductless Mini-Splits
For a bonus room over the garage or a condo with no ductwork of its own, a ductless head heats and cools the one space the main system never reaches.
Emergency HVAC
Heat out in January or AC down in a heat wave? Daytime, call the main number; after hours, 610-637-7585. Often we can be there the same day.

Why Exton Homeowners Choose Wendig
Five miles is a short drive, and that’s the first reason. We’ve been in West Chester under the same family since 1984, one of us answers the phone, and our technicians hold Master Plumbing and Mechanical certifications.
The second reason is how the estimate works. No one on our crew earns commission, so the estimate is free, the explanation is honest, and the choice stays yours. Hearth financing can split a large replacement into monthly payments.
The third is that Exton homes often need HVAC and plumbing attention in the same year. One company for both means one set of records on the house and one number saved in your phone.
Plumbing and HVAC Needs in Exton Homes
Exton isn’t a borough. It’s a census-designated place inside its township, and the 19341 ZIP code spills into three neighboring townships. Three things about that territory shape its plumbing and heating.
Homes Built Between the Mall and the Millennium
Exton Square Mall opened in March 1973, and the township grew from about 7,900 residents that year to more than 16,000 by 2000. More than half of the homes around Exton went up between 1970 and 2009, and the typical Exton house dates from around the mid-1990s.
A heat pump from 1998 or a water heater from 2010 is past its design life, and we’ll tell you whether yours has another season in it.
Townhomes, Condos, and Shared Walls
Only about three in ten Exton homes are detached single-family houses. The rest are townhomes and apartment or condo buildings, including a good share in buildings of 50 units or more.
In attached housing a leak doesn’t stay put, and a mini-split or a tankless water heater has to fit where the association allows. We size the equipment for those spaces and keep the installation tidy.
Flash Floods and the Sump Pump
On July 25, 2023, a flash flood sent water across the road at the Exton train station and onto Whitford Road near Commerce Drive. Township police made 16 water rescues that afternoon and pulled 30 drivers from their cars.
Water that moves that fast ends up in basements. A sump pump with a battery backup is the cheapest protection there is, and if yours hasn’t been tested since the day it went in, now is the time.
Public Sewer, Mostly
The township maintains roughly 100 miles of sewer pipe, and only about 6 percent of properties in the township are on on-lot septic. So in Exton, a slow drain at every fixture usually points to the lateral between your house and the township main, not a septic tank.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you provide emergency plumbing service in Exton?
Yes. Burst pipes, sewer backups, overflowing toilets, and gas line leaks. Call (610) 431-0621 during business hours or 610-637-7585 after hours, and for emergencies we can often get there the same day.
Do you repair water heaters in Exton?
Yes, tank and tankless. If the unit is leaking from the tank itself or is well past ten years old, we’ll quote a replacement alongside the repair so you can compare the two.
Do you service homes throughout the 19341 ZIP code?
Yes. All of Exton’s home township, plus the neighboring townships where homes carry an Exton address.
Do you do AC repair in Exton, PA, or only installation?
Both. We repair air conditioners whenever a repair makes sense. When a unit is losing refrigerant every year or is past fifteen, we’ll show you what a replacement would cost.
Do you handle commercial HVAC and plumbing in Exton?
Yes. Offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and rooftop units, with the same certified, no-commission technicians who work on homes.
My heat pump is from the 1990s. Repair or replace?
Have us look at it. A unit that age is well beyond its expected life, but if a small repair buys another season or two we’ll say so.
