Heating and Cooling Heath Families Rely On

Right Way Heating and Cooling handles HVAC service for Heath and Licking County homeowners from our local office at 409 S 22nd St, Suite 8. We've been serving Licking County since 2009, and Bill and Melissa Ratliff built this location because the demand was real and the community deserved a local team they could actually count on. Our certified technicians diagnose the problem correctly the first time, and we never charge overtime rates, so a call at an inconvenient hour doesn't cost you extra. If your furnace goes out in January or your AC quits in August, we're available 24/7. That's not a talking point. That's what the Heath location was built to do.

Heath homes tend to run on the older side, with a lot of the housing stock built around 1982 or before. That means ductwork, heat exchangers, and refrigerant lines that have decades of wear on them, and we've seen every version of what that looks like. Furnace repair calls in Heath often involve systems that are still running but running wrong, and the difference between a repair and a replacement isn't always obvious without a real diagnostic. Our technicians will show you exactly what they found and give you honest options. If you're also thinking about air quality, Heath's utility providers, including Duke Energy Ohio and AEP Ohio, have offered energy efficiency rebates for qualifying HVAC upgrades, and Columbia Gas of Ohio has administered rebates for high-efficiency condensing gas furnaces. We can help you figure out what you may be eligible for. Contact us at info@rightwayhvac.com or reach the Heath office directly at (740) 616-8005.

Our HVAC services in Heath

What We Service in Heath and Licking County

One call covers everything from a capacitor replacement to a full system install.

Furnace Repair

Gas or electric, we diagnose and fix it. Heat exchangers, igniters, pressure switches, blower motors, we've seen them all in Heath homes. We'll tell you straight whether a repair makes sense or whether the system's past the point of good money after bad.

Air Conditioning Repair

Capacitors, contactors, refrigerant leaks, compressor issues, evaporator coils, drain lines. There are a lot of ways an AC can fail during an Ohio summer. Our technicians find the actual cause, not just the symptom, and get you back to cooling fast.

Furnace Installation

When a furnace replacement makes more sense than another repair, we'll walk you through the options honestly. We install both gas and electric systems and handle the mechanical permit and final inspection required by the City of Heath Building and Zoning Department.

Air Conditioning Installation

New system or replacement, we size it right for your home and install it properly. Ask us about payment options and current utility rebates through Duke Energy Ohio or AEP Ohio when you contact our Heath office. Ask us about current utility rebates through Duke Energy Ohio or AEP Ohio.

Heat Pump Repair

Heat pumps handle both heating and cooling, which makes a failure twice as urgent. Our technicians understand the difference between a refrigerant issue, a reversing valve problem, and a defrost control fault. Heat pump repair is a specialty, not an afterthought.

HVAC Service Contracts

The smartest thing you can do for a system in a home built in 1982 is commit to annual maintenance. Our HVAC service contracts give Heath homeowners a scheduled tune-up every year so small problems don't become expensive ones.

Heath Location

Our Second Location, Built for Licking County

We were overly excited to open the Heath location in 2018. Reynoldsburg is home base, and we'd built a strong reputation there over the years, but Licking County homeowners kept calling and the drive kept getting longer. So we opened at 409 S 22nd St, Suite 8 in Heath and staffed it with the same kind of technicians we'd built the Reynoldsburg team around. The Heath office serves all of Licking County: Alexandria, Brownsville, Buckeye Lake, Croton, Etna, Granville, Gratiot, Heath, Hebron, Homer, Jacksontown, Johnstown, Kilkersville, Marne, Newark, Pataskala, Saint Louisville, Summit Station, and Utica. If you're in the county and your heat or AC has quit, call the Heath office at (740) 616-8005. We don't charge overtime rates, and we're available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for emergencies. That's the whole point of having a location here.

Air Quality

Indoor Air Quality for Heath Homes

Do you suffer with allergies? Ohio spring is rough, and a lot of Heath homeowners don't realize how much their HVAC system affects what they're breathing indoors. There are several options worth considering. An Aprilaire whole-home humidifier keeps moisture at a level that makes respiratory symptoms more manageable through the dry winter months. A proper air filtration system catches allergens, dust, and airborne particles that a standard filter misses entirely. And if you've never had your ducts looked at, duct cleaning in an older Heath home can turn up years of accumulated debris that's circulating through your living space every time the system runs. These aren't upsells. Some homes genuinely need them, and some don't. We'll tell you which category yours is in.

Certified Technicians: What That Actually Means

Our technicians complete rigorous, independently administered certification, and it's the most recognized certification in the HVAC trade. A certified technician has passed a third-party knowledge exam covering installation, service, and diagnostics for heating and cooling systems. It's not a company certificate or a badge anyone prints themselves. You pass the test or you don't. Right Way employs certified technicians, and certification is a core standard we hold our team to. What that means practically is that when we diagnose your system, we're not guessing. We're working from solid fundamentals and real field experience. Our 4.9-star average across hundreds of Google reviews tells part of the story. The other part is that We've been doing this since 2009 out of Reynoldsburg, and opened the Heath location in 2018 to serve Licking County directly. Bill and Melissa Ratliff own this company and they're accountable for every job. Ohio HVAC Contractor License #45299.

Permits and Inspections for Heath HVAC Replacements

What Heath homeowners should know before any furnace or AC replacement.

Mechanical Permits Are Required

Replacing a furnace or central air conditioner in an existing Heath home generally requires a mechanical permit from the City of Heath Building and Zoning Department. We pull the permit. You don't have to manage that piece.

Final Inspection Is Part of the Job

A permit means a final inspection, which is a good thing. An inspected installation is a documented installation. We don't skip that step, and we wouldn't recommend hiring anyone who does.

Rebates Can Offset the Cost

Ohio homeowners in Heath may be eligible for federal tax credits, HOMES and HEAR rebates through state programs, and local utility incentives through Duke Energy Ohio, AEP Ohio, or Columbia Gas of Ohio for qualifying high-efficiency equipment. Every job is different. Contact Right Way Heating and Cooling for an accurate estimate on what's available for your situation.

    We had a great experience with Right Way start to finish. Scheduling was super fast and convenient, Hunter was able to diagnose and explain the issue same day and provide multiple options at different prices. Noah helped us pick out the most cost effective solution for our situation, we even spent less than we expected. Finally, Naim & Matt were professional, clean, and respectful in our home for installation. We were consistently impressed with the honesty and clear communication with everyone, and not to mention that they showed up exactly when they said they would which made planning a lot easier. And finally we want to thank everyone for their attention to our family & pets' safety when thoroughly checking for carbon monoxide issues.

Frequently asked questions

Does Right Way Heating and Cooling's Heath location handle 24/7 emergency HVAC calls?
Yes. The Heath office at 409 S 22nd St, Suite 8 is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week for emergency heating and cooling calls. And we don't charge overtime rates, so a middle-of-the-night furnace failure in Heath costs the same rate as a daytime call. Licking County winters don't keep business hours and neither do we when it matters.
My Heath home was built in the early 1980s. Will a new furnace or AC work with the existing ductwork?
Heath's housing stock has a lot of homes from that era, and older ductwork can absolutely be compatible with a modern system. It depends on the layout, the condition of the ducts, and the size of the new equipment. We assess the existing ductwork as part of any installation consultation. If there are sizing or sealing issues, we'll tell you before we start, not after. Every job is different. Contact Right Way Heating and Cooling at the Heath office for an accurate estimate.
What HVAC rebates are available for Heath homeowners upgrading their heating or cooling system?
Heath homeowners may qualify for federal tax credits under the Inflation Reduction Act, state-administered HOMES and HEAR rebates, and utility incentives through Duke Energy Ohio, AEP Ohio, and Columbia Gas of Ohio for high-efficiency furnaces and heat pumps. What you actually qualify for depends on your current system, the replacement equipment, and your income. We can help you figure out what applies to your situation. Every job is different, so contact our Heath office for specifics.
Do I need a permit to replace my furnace or AC in Heath, OH?
Generally, yes. Replacing a furnace or central air conditioner in an existing Heath home requires a mechanical permit from the City of Heath Building and Zoning Department, followed by a final inspection. Right Way Heating and Cooling handles the permit on your behalf. We don't recommend skipping this step, and we wouldn't work with a homeowner who insisted on it. An inspected job is a protected job.
How do I know if my AC in Heath needs repair or full replacement?
The short answer: age, repair history, and refrigerant type. A system over 15 years old that's needed multiple repairs and still runs on older refrigerant is often cheaper to replace than to keep patching. A newer system with one failed component is almost always worth repairing. Our technicians will give you the honest breakdown either way. We're not going to push a replacement when a repair is the right call. Read more on our repair vs. replace guidance if you want to think it through before calling.
What does a certified technician do differently when diagnosing an HVAC problem in Heath?
Our technician certification means a technician has passed a nationally standardized third-party exam on HVAC installation and service. In practice, it means the diagnostic process is systematic rather than a process of elimination by trial and error. When a Heath homeowner calls with an AC that's blowing warm air, a certified tech checks refrigerant pressure, airflow, electrical components, and thermostat calibration in a logical order. You get an accurate diagnosis faster and you don't pay for parts that weren't the problem.
