Air Conditioning Installation, Repair & Replacement
Our technicians install and replace air conditioning systems from the manufacturers we carry, and we repair and maintain any brand you already have. If your unit has failed at the end of its service life, we'll walk you through energy-efficient replacement options. If it's still running well but you're due for an upgrade, we'll help you compare makes and models against your home's actual cooling needs.
The Medway Village Historic District, listed on the National Register in 2008, preserves the town's 19th-century mill village with its Georgian and Federal-style homes. Houses of that era were never built with central ductwork in mind, so a retrofit approach, whether high-velocity or ductless, is usually the better path to cooling them than forcing in a standard central-air system.
Air Duct Installation, Sealing & Replacement
Our team handles air ducts installation, sealing, and replacement, whether you're finishing new construction or dealing with ductwork that's reached the end of its life. Leaky or torn ducts let conditioned air escape before it ever reaches your rooms, driving up your bills without you noticing.
West Medway, the town's second village precinct established back in 1748, has a lot of long-settled housing stock. In homes that old, original ductwork is more likely to be reaching the point where seams have loosened and insulation has broken down. A duct inspection is a quick way to find out if that's part of why a room runs hot or cold.
Boiler Repair, Replacement & Maintenance
Our boilers services cover inspection, repair, replacement, and preventative maintenance. If something's off with your boiler, we'd rather catch it on an inspection than have you find out the hard way in January.
Medway grew up as a mill town along the Charles River, and Sanford Mills is one of the old textile mills that gave the village its start. Many of the homes built up around that original mill village still run on their original hydronic or boiler systems, and keeping an older boiler properly maintained is usually the more cost-effective path than a premature replacement.
Ductless Mini-Split Installation & Service
As a Certified Ductless Pro, our team installs, replaces, repairs, and maintains ductless systems for homes that need zone-by-zone comfort without new ductwork.
Village Street, originally laid out in 1670 as Old Mendon Road, is the oldest road in Medway, and it's still lined with older homes that were never built with ductwork. For a house like that, ductless is often the simplest fix: heating and cooling room by room without opening up a single wall or ceiling for ductwork.
Furnace Installation, Repair & Replacement
A furnace that's struggling in November rarely fixes itself by January. Our furnace services cover installation, replacement, repair, and maintenance, so your system is ready before the temperature drops.
Newer developments like Claybrook Estates and Granite Estates were built out with more standard forced-air construction, which makes them a good match for straightforward furnace service and replacement. No unusual retrofit work required, just making sure the unit and ductwork are sized and maintained correctly.
Heat Pump Installation & Cold-Climate Heating
A heat pumps system gives you efficient heating and cooling from one piece of equipment, cutting your energy use compared to running separate systems. We handle installation, replacement, repair, and maintenance.
Route 109, Medway's main east-west artery, crosses I-495 right in town, and Medway has grown steadily as a commuter destination along that corridor. A lot of homeowners here are electrifying as they upgrade, and the timing works in their favor: Mass Save's 2026 whole-home heat pump rebate runs up to $8,500, and equipment has to use an A2L refrigerant like R-454B to qualify, which is exactly what our Puron Advance Trained technicians are set up to install.
HVAC Maintenance Plans
Regular maintenance keeps your system running efficiently year-round and helps you avoid breakdowns during the coldest and hottest stretches of the year.
Chicken Brook runs north to south through Medway and has grown into a wooded green corridor with a public trail system connecting to Choate Park and the Charles River Rail Trail. Homes along that corridor deal with more seasonal leaf and pollen debris finding its way into outdoor units than a typical inland property. A maintenance plan catches that before it becomes an airflow or efficiency problem.
Indoor Air Quality Solutions
We offer a full range of indoor air quality products and services to help you breathe easier at home.
Medway has an unusually high share of residents who work from home, over 20% by some estimates, well above the national norm. When you're spending your workday as well as your evenings in the same house, indoor air quality stops being a background concern and starts affecting how you actually feel day to day. A properly sized filtration or ventilation setup can make a real difference beyond what a standard air filter handles on its own.
Zone Control Systems
A zone control systems setup lets you heat and cool different areas of your home independently, so you're not paying to condition rooms nobody's using.
Medway covers just 11.5 square miles, but that's still enough room for a real mix of housing: historic homes near the old mill village, mid-century houses, and newer construction further out. Additions and multi-level layouts show up across all of it. Zone control is often the fix for a house where one part never seems to match the thermostat setting for the rest.
Why Medway Homeowners Choose JBD HVAC
JBD customers in Medway deal with the same person start to finish: Jim, not a dispatcher reading off a script. He leads every job himself, Shawna will walk you through scheduling and your Mass Save rebate paperwork, and Dominic's usually right there with Jim getting the work done. We've won our manufacturer's President's Award five years running, and on top of our factory-authorized status, our team is certified as an Indoor Air Quality Expert and Puron Advance Trained, so you're getting technicians who actually know the newest equipment, not just a badge on a website. We're based just down the road in Franklin, and we're out in Medway all the time.
Medway, MA HVAC Repair & Installation Questions, Answered
My home is near one of Medway's old mill-era buildings, like the Jacob Ide house. Should I repair my original boiler or replace it?
Age isn't the deciding factor here, the boiler's repair history matters more. A boiler that's been properly maintained can often keep running efficiently for years past what you'd expect just from looking at the home's age. If a major component fails, we'll walk you through the actual repair-versus-replacement numbers rather than just guessing.
My AC is running, but my Medway home still feels warm upstairs. What's going on?
It's one of the calls we get most often, and airflow is usually the real culprit, not the compressor. A leaky duct run, a clogged filter, or a system that was never quite sized for a two-story home can all leave the upstairs lagging behind the rest of the house. Most of the time, one visit is enough for a technician to pin down which one it is.
How do I know if I should repair or replace my furnace before winter?
A widely used industry guideline is the 50% rule: if a single repair would cost more than about half the price of a new system, replacement is usually the better long-term value, especially on a furnace nearing 15-20 years old. We'll give you real numbers for both options rather than pushing you toward either one.
Is a ductless mini-split a realistic option for an older Medway home without existing ductwork?
Yes. That's exactly the situation ductless was designed for. Instead of opening up walls or ceilings to run new ducts, a ductless system uses a small line set that can typically be routed through an exterior wall, giving you zone-by-zone heating and cooling without a major renovation.
What Mass Save rebates are available for a heat pump installation in Medway in 2026?
As of 2026, Mass Save's whole-home heat pump rebate runs up to $8,500 (at $2,650 per ton), with a separate partial-home tier available at a lower rate. Qualifying equipment now has to use an A2L refrigerant such as R-454B rather than older R-410A systems. Our office handles the rebate paperwork and Mass Save HEAT Loan application as part of the install process.
Why does my Medway home feel humid all summer even though the AC is running?
An AC system is built to cool air, not necessarily to dehumidify it on its own, especially if it's oversized for the space or short-cycling. A whole-home dehumidifier or a properly sized system can address the humidity directly instead of just running the AC longer and hoping it helps.
Is zone control worth adding to a multi-level Medway home?
If you've got rooms or floors that never match the thermostat setting for the rest of the house (a common issue in homes with additions or finished upper floors), zone control is usually a more targeted fix than adjusting the whole system's settings and hoping for the best.

Customer Reviews

During a routine spring maintenance visit, we discovered a leak in the AC unit serving our upper floor. Since the unit was 25 years old, replacing it made more sense than repairing it. We got several quotes, and JBD stood out. Not only were they the most competitively priced, but they were also the most straightforward in explaining our options. We never felt pressured or oversold. Installation day went smoothly from start to finish. Jim and his crew were courteous, knowledgeable, articulate, and easy to work with. They took careful precautions to protect our home throughout the process, and Jim was patient and happy to answer questions as the work progressed. He even took the time to clear a clogged drain on our downstairs condenser that was leaking on the basement floor, a nice bonus that solved an annoying problem for us! The job was completed in a single day, and we now have a quiet, efficient system. From the first phone call to the final handshake, we were very happy with our experience with JBD Air Conditioning & Heating Services and would recommend them without hesitation.

JBD is wonderful to work with. Always professional and responsive. We had a late day emergency and Jim was done for the day on his way home, but he detoured over to our house and made a potentially big problem really small. This was late on a Friday. JBD cares about their customers and provide quality, reliable, outstanding service at a fair price. What more can you ask for?

We recently had a new heating system installed and chose to add central A/C. We chose JBD after Jim had come to our home to look at the job. He was very thorough, explained things very well in a way we could understand, and answered our questions. He was polite and friendly and made us feel very comfortable about our decision to add A/C-a considerable expense. We chose JDB after soliciting several estimates from other companies. JBD's pricing was very reasonable and, having read the reviews for the brand he proposed and we chose, I knew we were making a good decision. The work was scheduled to take place over 2 days, 7/1 and 7/2. We were informed and confirmed by by the office so we knew the project date was right on target. Jim and his assistant, Dominic, arrived early and worked very hard for 2, long days! They were meticulous in preparing and protecting the floors and carpeted staircase with quilted fabric dropcloths--the kind typically used by moving companies to protect furniture. This was important to us as the basement floor is new and in pristine condition. They were meticulous at cleaning up when the job was completed. Upon completion, Jim explained and showed us the various parts of the new system, and also showed us how to operate the new thermostat (the one he had recommended we replace our previous one with and we're glad we took his advice). We can't say enough about Jim, Shawna (office manager), and Dominic! All of them were wonderful to deal with; friendly, helpful, understanding, patient, professional and meticulous! We would hire them again and highly recommend them to anyone in need of their services. We are thoroughly enjoying the comfort of central air! Gold stars for all of you! Thank you JBD!

I recently had the pleasure of working with JBD Air Conditioning & Heating Services, Inc to install two heat pump systems in my home. From start to finish, the entire experience was a demonstration of honesty, integrity, and outstanding attention to detail. Jim took the time to thoroughly explain the options available and gave me a clear and honest breakdown of costs. I never felt pressured into making decisions, and they ensured I understood every step of the process. Shawna helped guide me through the mass save heat loan and took care of all the rebates! It’s rare to find a company that truly values trust as much as they do, and it made all the difference. Their attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the installation. Jim and Dominic were on site for three days straight and were meticulous in their work. They even adjusted the ducts, registers, and return for the master bedroom which previously had air flow issues. Jim went out of his way to shift the install date to prevent the house from losing A/C on the recent 100F day. The heat pumps are running beautifully and we're already seeing a substantial improvement in the master. If you're looking for a company that genuinely cares about delivering high-quality work while maintaining the highest standards of honesty and professionalism, look no further than JBD. They’ve earned my trust, and I’ll be recommending them to everyone I know.
