With summer flooding of basements in the Milwaukee area this year, homeowners need to be smart and cautious when it comes to their heating units and water heating units. The Gas Appliance Manufacturers Association (GAMA) strictly emphasizes that any gas appliance (furnace, water heater, clothes dryer) that has had water over the level of the burners should be REPLACED, without attempting to repair it.
D and M Heating agrees with this warning. Our technicians will evaluate your equipment for damage, but we will not attempt to light or start water damaged appliances.
If you have any questions regarding flooded equipment, please call our office at 414-281-5350.

Carrier is very proud to announce that the Infinity™ heat pump by Carrier has been awarded the Consumers Digest “Best Buy” designation.
“Best Buys” are selected on factors such as energy efficiency, noise levels, features, and the manufacturer’s reputation for reliability. Carrier was awarded the top recognition for three levels — premium, midrange, and economy.
“The Infinity is simply the best on the market,” stated Consumers Digest. “We couldn’t find a whole-house heat pump with a higher SEER rating, and its HSPF rating is among the industry leaders. Plus, Carrier’s reputation for high quality is well-deserved with this model.”
The Consumers Digest “Best Buy” rating is awarded, on average, to fewer than 3 percent of the competing models in any given product category. Premium selection indicates feature-rich benefits and value for the money as well as high quality.
The Infinity heat pump is an ultra-high-efficiency unit with up to a 19 SEER rating well above the industry minimum of 13 SEER providing one of the most efficient heat pumps offered.
The Infinity heat pump features two-stage operation and Ideal Humidity System® technology. This humidity management function is designed to enable homeowners to maintain maximum comfort in their home. They can enjoy longer heating cycles at lower fan speeds, which provide energy savings and more consistent temperatures throughout the house than single-speed systems. This system can be installed with the Infinity control, allowing the user enhanced diagnostics, including filter change reminders based on airflow through the system and not on a calendar. Homeowners can regulate temperature, humidity, airflow, ventilation, indoor air quality, and zoning all from one control. A remote-access option on the Infinity control allows customers to change their system settings from a phone or via the Internet.
