Harrisburg HVAC FAQ
My basement flooded. Is my furnace or boiler safe?
Don't run it until a technician inspects the burner, controls and gas valve. Water damage can make equipment unsafe.
Does Pennsylvania license HVAC contractors?
Not statewide, but contractors doing home improvement work must register with the Attorney General, and permits come from the local code office.
