Exeter Heating & Cooling is the local crew keeping South Huron homes warm through bitter lake-wind winters and cool through humid summers. We service the propane and oil furnaces rural properties actually run, install cold-climate heat pumps, and pair every system with Generac backup so the heat stays on when the grid goes down.
We are based right in Exeter, and the homes we service look different from the ones in the city. Out here it is propane tanks, oil furnaces, century farmhouses, lake-effect humidity, and winter outages that can last for days, so that is exactly what we are set up to handle.
Because we live and work in Huron County, we know which furnaces hold up to a cold snap, which AC units struggle in the August humidity off Lake Huron, and which homes need a Generac to keep the heat running through an outage. You get honest advice from a technician who has actually been to your road before, not a call centre reading a script.
Backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee on every job.
From a propane furnace on a rural property outside Crediton to a ductless mini-split in a farm workshop near Brucefield, we cover the full range of heating and cooling work South Huron homes actually need, and we tie it all together with Generac standby power.
We service the propane, oil, and high-efficiency gas furnaces that heat Huron County homes, from rural farmhouses outside Seaforth to newer builds in Exeter. Fast no-heat calls, honest diagnosis, and the same technician who learns your unit this winter.

Learn moreOut here you want a local crew that answers the phone and tells you the truth. Here is what every call to Exeter Heating & Cooling looks like.
Before we touch anything, we want to know how your home actually runs, the fuel type, the age of the equipment, how often the power blinks, and where the comfort falls short. That context drives a better diagnosis every time.
We find the real cause and explain it in plain language, then quote the work before we start. If a small part fixes the problem, that is all you pay for. We will not push a new furnace or heat pump you do not need.
The technician who services your furnace this winter is the same one who knows it next year. We handle the seasonal maintenance, the Generac backup, and the long-term relationship, so your home comfort is not starting from zero each time you call.
Real calls from real properties across Exeter, Seaforth, Crediton, Dashwood, Brucefield, and Centralia. Here is what our neighbours tell us after the work is done.
“Our propane furnace quit during that bitter February cold snap. They had a tech out to our place outside Crediton by mid-morning, found a cracked igniter, and had the heat back on before the kids got home from school. Fair price, no upsell.”
“We were nervous about ditching the oil tank, but they walked us through the heat pump conversion and the rebate paperwork and paired it with a Generac so we are covered in an outage. The house outside Dashwood has never been this comfortable.”
“They put a cold-climate mini-split in my workshop out by the barn. It heats the space even on raw lake-wind mornings and keeps it cool when I am working in August. Line sets were run clean and the pad was levelled properly, real tidy job.”
Well-maintained equipment breaks down less, runs more efficiently, and lasts longer. The plan builds that care in automatically: two thorough inspections a year, priority booking ahead of non-members, 15% off any repair along the way, and a running service log your future technician, or buyer, will thank you for.
Whether your propane furnace just quit on a cold night, you are ready to trade oil for a heat pump, or you want a Generac that keeps the whole system running through a Huron County outage, the local crew at Exeter Heating & Cooling is ready to help.

The things South Huron homeowners ask us most when they call, from heat pumps in cold weather to backup power and century-home ductwork.
Today's cold-climate units are rated to keep heating well below zero, so lake-wind nights in January are not the dealbreaker people assume. The key is sizing the unit to carry your full heating load and pairing it with backup, either a furnace or a Generac, for the rare stretch where it needs help. We install and service them across Exeter and Huron County and they perform.
Yes. As a Generac dealer, that pairing is a big part of what we do for rural Huron County properties. We size the generator to carry your furnace or heat pump, plus your well pump and fridge, so a winter outage does not leave you with no heat and frozen pipes. We handle the HVAC side and the generator coordination together.
It starts with a proper load calculation on your home, then we size a cold-climate heat pump to replace the oil furnace, remove the old tank, and handle the rebate paperwork end to end. Most Huron County homeowners pair the conversion with a Generac so the new system keeps heating even when the power is out. We will walk you through the timeline and the costs before you commit.
Yes, that is one of the most common installs we do around Exeter and Crediton. A cold-climate mini-split handles a workshop, sunroom, or converted outbuilding year-round with no ductwork required. The important part is sizing the BTUs to the space, because an oversized unit short-cycles and never dehumidifies. We get the sizing right the first time.
It is, when it is done right. Older homes around Exeter have ducts that have collected decades of dust, pet hair, and construction debris, and we clean the full run including the awkward returns those systems are known for. We seal and pressurize each vent so the debris goes into our vacuum, not back into your rooms, and your furnace and AC stay protected throughout.
We start with a proper diagnosis, not a sales pitch. If the heat exchanger is sound and the repair is reasonable for the unit's age, we fix it. If the furnace is past its useful life or the repair cost approaches replacement, we tell you that plainly and walk you through high-efficiency propane and heat-pump options. You get the honest call either way.
