AfterHVAC Company in Newark, OH
Dalton Heating & Air handles heating and cooling work across Newark, OH with written pricing, on-time arrival, and a one-year written guarantee on every repair. Newark’s mix of pre-war homes near downtown, mid-century ranches off Cherry Valley Road, and newer builds around the Granville Road corridor means no two jobs come with the same ductwork, electrical panel, or insulation story. If your AC quits on a July afternoon or the furnace starts short-cycling in January, call (361) 306-9515 and a live person answers, 24/7.
Why Newark Homes Are Different
Newark sits in a central Ohio climate that swings from humid low-90s summers to single-digit winter nights, and the housing stock asks a lot of residential HVAC equipment in both directions. Many homes around the Hudson Avenue and Country Club Drive neighborhoods date to the 1950s and 1960s, built with heating systems designed before central air was standard. Retrofitting AC into those floor plans usually means working around finished basements, older duct sizing, and electrical services that were never sized for a heat pump or condensing unit.
Newer subdivisions near the Heath border and along Horns Hill Road tend to have better insulation but longer duct runs, which changes how a furnace or air handler gets matched to the house. The city’s rolling terrain also matters: homes on the higher lots near Flint Ridge and the lower streets toward the Licking River see different humidity behavior, and crawlspace homes in the older wards hold moisture that strains ductwork and coils. Licking County requires mechanical permits for most equipment changes, and our techs pull the right paperwork as part of the job.
Our Main Newark Services
Most Newark callers reach for one of two things: a cooling system that has stopped cooling, or a furnace that will not stay lit. Each of the three services below has its own Newark page with local pricing, timelines, and what happens on the visit.
AC Repair in Newark
When a condenser outside a Newark home stops running or the indoor unit blows warm air, the fix usually comes down to a failed capacitor, a contactor, a refrigerant leak, or a control board. Homes on the hilly lots near Evans Street and McKinley Avenue run their systems hard through July and August, and parts fail on the hottest days because that is when load is highest. Marco Benitez and our techs diagnose in the field, put the repair price in writing before turning a wrench, and stand behind the work for a full year. Read the full breakdown on our AC Repair in Newark page.
Heat Pump Installation in Newark
A heat pump makes particular sense in Newark’s older neighborhoods where gas lines were never run or where a homeowner wants to drop their gas bill. The work involves sizing the outdoor unit to the home’s actual heating and cooling load, matching it to the existing ductwork or air handler, and running new electrical. Older homes near downtown Newark often need a panel upgrade or a line-set route through finished walls, which we price out in advance. See Heat Pump Installation in Newark for equipment options and fixed pricing.
Furnace Repair in Newark
Newark furnaces take a beating from December through February, and the most common failures here are ignitors, flame sensors, pressure switches, and blower motors. Homes in the mid-century neighborhoods along Moull Street and Wildwood Drive often carry furnaces that were installed 15 to 25 years ago, which means parts are wearing out in waves. Our techs carry the common service parts on the truck and can finish most repairs in one visit, with the price approved before any work begins. Details are on the Furnace Repair in Newark page.

Pricing for HVAC Company in Newark, OH
Here are the ranges Newark homeowners should expect for the most common jobs. These are fixed ranges, not estimates: we write the actual number down before any work starts.
| Service | Typical Range in Newark |
|---|---|
| AC repair | $150 – $650 |
| Furnace repair | $150 – $700 |
| AC installation (full system) | $3,500 – $7,500 |
| Seasonal tune-up | $80 – $200 |
What pushes a Newark job toward the high end of these ranges is usually access: crawlspaces, finished ceilings below attic units, or electrical panels that need a dedicated circuit. What does not push the price up is surprise labor or parts add-ons: the price we write down is the price you pay, on every job, without exception.

FAQs About HVAC Company in Newark
Most non-emergency calls in Newark are scheduled same-day or next-day. A no-cooling call in summer or a no-heat call in winter gets priority, and our dispatchers are live around the clock so you are not leaving a message and waiting for a callback.
Licking County requires mechanical permits for most equipment changes, and our techs handle that paperwork. You should not have to visit the county building or chase down an inspector: the permit gets pulled as part of the job, and the work gets scheduled around the inspection window.
