When Berwick homeowners need furnace repair, Aces Highlands is the local team to call. We are based at 508 Riverside St Unit 1 in Portland — a short drive from Berwick in York County — so we respond quickly and know the homes, the weather, and the codes in your area.
A broken furnace in Maine winter is an emergency. Aces Highlands provides fast, accurate furnace repair with honest diagnostics — we fix what actually needs fixing and nothing more.
Common furnace problems include no heat, blower issues, ignition failures, strange noises, short-cycling, and thermostat malfunctions. Our technicians can quickly identify the root cause and get your heat back on.
We repair oil, propane, and natural gas furnaces from all major manufacturers. We carry common parts like ignitors, flame sensors, blower motors, and control boards to complete most repairs in a single visit. Regular furnace maintenance can prevent many of these common issues.
If your furnace is at the end of its life and repair costs do not make sense, we will tell you honestly and help you evaluate replacement options. We never pressure you into a decision.

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. Our techs are paid to do the job right, not to upsell — no commission structure pushes them toward extra work. Earning the next call, not hitting a sales target, is the entire business plan.
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 Won't Heat? Here's How We Narrow It Down
Furnace calls almost always start the same way — "it's not blowing warm air" — but the actual cause splits into a handful of distinct failure points.

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.

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 can not recommend Sam and his team enough!! In a world of slow response times and cut corners they went above and beyond in every area, installing a new electrical panel for me. Their attention to detail and love of their craft truly sets them apart from the rest!

Where to begin? These guys hooked up a sauna for me and did an amazing job, it was not a small job. Projects big or small, these guys are my go to. Responsive, reasonably priced, and professional. In a world where it is tough to get good service, I'm thrilled to have these guys in my phone.
Furnace Repair FAQs
My furnace stopped working — what should I check first?
Check the thermostat batteries and settings, the furnace power switch (looks like a light switch on or near the unit), the breaker, and the filter — a fully clogged filter can trip the furnace’s safety limit. On oil units, confirm you have fuel and press the reset button only once. If none of that works, call us.
Why does my furnace turn on and off every few minutes?
Short-cycling is most often a clogged filter causing overheating, a dirty flame sensor dropping the flame signal, or an oversized furnace reaching temperature too fast. It wastes fuel and wears components, so it is worth fixing promptly.
How much does furnace repair cost?
Common repairs — flame sensors, ignitors, capacitors — typically run in the low hundreds. Blower motors and control boards cost more. We quote the exact price after diagnosis and before any repair, so there are no surprises on the invoice.
When is a furnace not worth repairing?
When it is past 15 years and facing a major repair like a heat exchanger, blower motor, or control board, replacement usually wins the math — especially counting the fuel savings of a modern high-efficiency unit. A cracked heat exchanger on an older furnace is almost always a replacement, for safety reasons.
Do you repair oil furnaces?
Yes — oil, propane, and natural gas. Our team holds a Maine Master Oil Burner license, so oil-fired equipment is core work for us, not an afterthought.
