Your Local Heating and Cooling Team

Howell Heating has been serving homeowners throughout the Lino Lakes area since 2004. We are family owned, not a franchise, so when you call, you are reaching people who actually live and work nearby, not a dispatcher reading from a script. We answer the phone ourselves, show up when we say we will, and explain what we find in plain language before any work begins.

Furnace Repair and Installation in Lino Lakes

When a furnace acts up, it is usually one of a handful of issues: it will not start, it short cycles, or it runs constantly without actually warming the house. We diagnose which one you are facing before recommending anything. If a repair solves it, we handle the repair. If the unit is old enough that replacing it makes more financial sense, we will tell you directly and walk through the options honestly, with no pressure to decide right away.

We carry and are factory-trained on Lennox® and Carrier®, and we also service all major brands, so we can help regardless of what brand is currently installed in your home.

Air Conditioning Repair and Installation in Lino Lakes

Humid Minnesota summers tend to reveal the weak point in an air conditioner that has been struggling for a while. We repair refrigerant leaks, failed capacitors, frozen coils, and units that run all day without properly cooling the house down. When replacement makes more sense than another repair, we also install heat pumps as an efficient option. For a garage, a porch, or a room that never quite matches the rest of the house, a ductless mini split is often a simpler and more affordable fix than running new ductwork.

Ductwork Installation and Repair in Lino Lakes

Not every comfort problem is about the furnace or air conditioner itself. Ductwork that is undersized, poorly sealed, or was never properly designed for your home can leave some rooms too hot in summer and too cold in winter no matter how well the equipment is running. We install new ductwork for additions, finished basements, and homes that never had central air to begin with, and we repair or reroute existing duct systems that are leaking air, disconnected, or just not sized correctly. If ductwork is part of what is holding your comfort back, we will tell you as part of a straightforward evaluation rather than just replacing equipment and hoping it helps.

Indoor Air Quality, Thermostats and Maintenance

We also install whole home humidifiers, which help with how dry Minnesota winters make the air indoors, along with air purifiers and ventilation systems for homes that need better air quality. Smart thermostats are another option we install, giving you control over your system and your energy use right from your phone.

We do offer maintenance visits, though newer equipment does not always need the upkeep older systems require. Rather than talk you into a plan you might not need, we would rather you just call. We will look at what you actually have and tell you honestly whether a maintenance visit makes sense for your home.
