Maintenance built around the equipment you own.
A boiler, gas furnace and ductless heat pump need different checks. Share the equipment type, fuel, number of systems and any developing symptoms when you book. A planned visit can identify service needs and help you prepare for the season; existing breakdowns, replacement parts and major repairs require their own diagnosis and approval.
Coordinate maintenance with your Cape Cod season
Plan a maintenance visit around the equipment you use and when the property will be occupied. Barnstable County seasonal-home owners can arrange a keyholder and confirm access before arrival or closing. Tell us each system's type and model; furnace, boiler, central-air and ductless maintenance have different service requirements.
Problems and service needs we can assess
- Gas and oil furnace maintenance and heating tune-ups.
- Boiler maintenance for the agreed fuel and system type.
- Central AC inspections, cleaning and seasonal readiness.
- Heat-pump and ductless mini-split maintenance.
- Maintenance planning for rentals, seasonal homes and light-commercial equipment.
Furnace tune-ups and boiler maintenance
Heating maintenance may include accessible burner and heat-exchanger inspection, cleaning appropriate to the equipment, venting checks, control and safety checks, and operating tests. Furnace airflow and filters need attention; boiler service may involve circulation, pressure, expansion and zone controls. The agreed checklist depends on the manufacturer's requirements and the condition of the system.
Mini-split cleaning and cooling-system maintenance
Cooling and heat-pump maintenance may include filter and accessible coil checks, condensate drainage, blower condition, outdoor-unit clearance, electrical connections, controls and operating performance. Deep cleaning of a mini-split indoor head or blower is a distinct scope that should be specified when booking. Report odors, water leaks, weak airflow or faults before the visit.
Choose a maintenance plan with clear inclusions
Before choosing a plan, confirm the systems covered, number of visits, cleaning included, scheduling benefits, repair discounts and exclusions. Membership benefits and equipment maintenance are not automatically the same thing. Review the current plan terms and price for your property; repairs, parts, refrigerant and additional cleaning are included only when the agreement says so.
- Identify each covered system and its equipment type.
- Confirm the frequency and scope of the planned visits.
- Review current pricing, benefits and exclusions before enrollment.
- Arrange access and approval contacts for a managed or seasonal property.
Schedule around Cape Cod occupancy
For a summer rental, allow time for the inspection and any separately approved repairs before guests arrive. For a year-round heat pump, discuss maintenance across both heating and cooling seasons. Commercial operating hours, equipment duty and manufacturer requirements may call for a different schedule.
Arrange a planned maintenance visit
- Identify the equipment. Send the system type, fuel, model if available, number of units and any symptoms. Tell us about access, tenant schedules and the last service.
- Confirm the maintenance scope. Review the visit or plan price, checklist, included cleaning and exclusions before scheduling. An existing fault may need a separate diagnostic visit.
- Review the results. After service, discuss the equipment condition, any findings that need attention and the recommended next visit. Additional repairs are quoted for approval.

Service questions
HVAC Maintenance Plans and Service FAQs on Cape Cod
How do repair estimates, flat-rate pricing and diagnostic fees work?
Repair estimates require a site visit, and the visit is included in the diagnostic fee. After diagnosing the problem, Durfee presents upfront flat-rate pricing for the proposed work before you approve it. The diagnostic fee is credited toward approved work when the applicable minimums are met. The team explains the qualifying minimum and credit when arranging service.
How often should my HVAC system be maintained?
Follow the manufacturer's requirements and a schedule suited to the equipment, use and service history. Heating and cooling checks are commonly planned before their operating seasons; year-round heat pumps and heavily used commercial systems may need more frequent attention. Durfee can help plan the visits for your property.
Does a tune-up include fixing an existing problem?
A maintenance visit covers the agreed inspection, cleaning and checks. Diagnosing a breakdown, replacing parts or carrying out additional repairs may be separate. Tell us about existing symptoms when booking so the appointment is set up correctly.
Can I book mini-split cleaning?
Yes. Describe the number and type of indoor units and whether you need routine maintenance or more extensive head, coil or blower cleaning. Access, equipment design and the level of buildup affect the scope and price. Confirm what will be cleaned before the visit.
What does an HVAC maintenance plan cost?
Durfee offers the Harbor plan at $34.99 per month, Captain at $43.99 per month and Admiral at $53.99 per month. Harbor and Captain include one visit per year; Admiral includes two. Compare the benefits above and contact Durfee to confirm covered equipment, membership terms and the total price for your property before enrolling.
Does maintenance guarantee the system will not break down?
No. Maintenance helps identify developing concerns and supports reliable operation, but components can still fail. A maintenance agreement, manufacturer warranty and repair warranty have separate terms; ask what applies to your equipment.
Do you maintain commercial HVAC equipment?
Durfee reviews qualifying light-commercial systems. Provide the equipment list, property use, operating hours and access requirements so we can confirm suitability and a maintenance scope for the building.
