Furnace Installation for Berwick Homeowners
High-Efficiency Models
Proper Sizing
Ductwork Inspection Included
Berwick sits in York County, part of the territory Aces Highlands covers out of 508 Riverside St Unit 1 in Portland every week — so a call for furnace installation gets a technician who already knows the local housing and codes, not a first-timer.
When it is time for a new furnace, Aces Highlands helps you choose and install a high-efficiency system that delivers dependable heat and lower energy costs. Every installation includes proper sizing, clean ductwork connections, and thorough testing.
We install oil, propane, and natural gas furnaces from trusted brands. Modern high-efficiency furnaces can operate at 95% efficiency or higher, meaning more of your fuel dollar goes toward heating your home instead of going up the chimney. You might also want to consider a heat pump system for even greater efficiency and year-round comfort.
Proper sizing is critical for furnace performance. An oversized furnace short-cycles and creates temperature swings, while an undersized unit runs constantly without reaching comfortable temperatures. We perform a load calculation to determine the right size for your home.
Our furnace installations include removal of the old unit, new furnace installation, ductwork inspection and connection, thermostat setup, and a complete system test. Older homes may also benefit from an electrical panel upgrade to support the new system. We make sure everything is working perfectly before we leave.

Berwick Homes and What They Need
Berwick's median home was built in 1989, with 16 percent of the housing stock predating 1940 and 21 percent predating 1960 -- a newer profile than you might expect from one of Maine's oldest incorporated towns, since most of the historic core split off with South and North Berwick generations ago.
Heating and Cooling in Berwick
About 59 percent of Berwick households heat mainly with fuel oil, with bottled or tank propane at 17 percent and wood at 11 percent. Unlike neighboring North and South Berwick, Berwick itself has no piped natural gas service, which keeps heat pump pairings and propane conversions the more common upgrade paths here.
Getting to Know Berwick
Berwick was incorporated on June 9, 1713, the ninth town incorporated in what is now Maine, on land the Abenaki knew as Newichawannock, or 'river of many falls.' The town used to be much bigger: South Berwick split off in 1814, and North Berwick followed in 1831.
Diamond Hill, at 490 feet, is Berwick's highest point today -- a modest peak in a town whose real distinction is just how long it's been settled, older than the United States itself.
Local & Independent — Not a Franchise
There is no franchise behind Aces Highlands — just a Portland-based crew that works Berwick under its own name. Technicians are not on commission, so the recommendation you get is the one your house actually needs. That is how we keep customers calling back, one honest job at a time.
How a Furnace Works
- Return air — pulled in through the filter
- Blower — pushes air across the heat exchanger
- Burners — ignite to heat the exchanger
- Heat exchanger — transfers heat without mixing combustion gases
- Supply air — warm air delivered to the home

Furnace Installation: Sizing, Ductwork & Venting
A furnace replacement is a chance to fix problems the original installation may have never addressed — most of which live in the ductwork, not the furnace cabinet.

Codes & Permits for Furnace Installation in Berwick

How Aces Highlands Handles Furnace Installation in Berwick

- Part of finishing a furnace installation is verifying CO alarm coverage near bedrooms, the standard Maine sets for homes with fuel-fired heat like a furnace.

Elijah and Highlands Heating & AC were super helpful! Boiler failed over the weekend and Elijah was very responsive and helpful, getting us up and running right away. I would recommend him at HH&AC highly!

We highly recommend Highlands Heating & AC. They are extremely responsive, knowledgeable and do great work. Our boiler stopped working and Elijah was quick to respond after hours on a Friday. He installed a new boiler and heat pump hot water heater.

He was very friendly. He gave me an honest explanation on why I shouldn't recharge my A/C unit and what he suggested made much more sense. He really took care of everything. He is very professional, always called me with updates. 5 stars is not enough — I give this company 10 stars.

I've had three HVAC issues over the past two years. Each time I call, Elija or the office picks up the phone, and my problem is fixed in 24 hrs. Their solutions always feel correct and honest. I cannot recommend them more.

Furnace Installation FAQs
How much does a new furnace cost installed?
Most residential furnace replacements run roughly $5,000–$9,000 installed depending on fuel type, efficiency class, and ductwork condition. We provide a firm written quote before ordering equipment, and financing is available.
How long does furnace installation take?
A straightforward replacement is completed in one day, with heat restored the same evening. Jobs involving significant ductwork, venting changes, or fuel conversion may take a second day.
What size furnace does my home need?
The size should come from a heat-loss calculation of your actual home — insulation, windows, air sealing, square footage — not from copying the old unit’s label. Oversized furnaces short-cycle and create temperature swings; undersized ones run constantly and still fall behind.
Should I replace my furnace with a heat pump instead?
Worth considering. Cold-climate heat pumps heat efficiently through most of a Maine winter and add air conditioning, and Efficiency Maine rebates may apply. Many homes pair a heat pump with a furnace as backup. We install both, so we can price the options against each other honestly.
Do you remove the old furnace?
Yes — removal and disposal of the old unit is included in every installation, along with a full cleanup of the work area.
