Nestled in the rolling hills of Broome County, Maine, NY is a tight-knit community where neighbors look out for each other and homeowners take pride in maintaining their properties. At Action Plumbing, Heating, and Cooling, we've been serving Maine and the surrounding Southern Tier region since 2006, and we understand the unique challenges that come with maintaining older homes through harsh Upstate New York winters and humid summers.
Maine's rural character means many homes rely on well water systems and face the seasonal demands of heating systems that run from October through April. Whether you're dealing with a frozen pipe during a February cold snap, a furnace that's struggling to keep up, or planning to upgrade to a more efficient system, our NATE certified technicians bring nearly two decades of local experience to every job. We're familiar with the mix of historic farmhouses, ranch-style homes, and newer constructions throughout Maine, and we know how to work with the unique plumbing and HVAC systems in each.
From the Maine Memorial Highway corridor to the quiet country roads that wind through town, we're committed to providing reliable, honest service to every Maine homeowner. We understand that when your heating fails on a subzero night or your well pump stops working, you need a local company that responds quickly and gets the job done right the first time.
Maine homeowners face unique plumbing challenges, from well water systems that serve many rural properties to aging pipes in older homes that can struggle through winter freezes. Our comprehensive plumbing services address every need, ensuring your home's water systems function reliably year-round.
Plumbing emergencies don't wait for business hours, and neither do we. Our 24/7 emergency plumbing services mean you're never left dealing with a burst pipe, overflowing toilet, or failed sump pump on your own. We understand that in Maine's rural setting, a plumbing emergency can quickly escalate, especially during winter when frozen pipes can cause extensive water damage. Our emergency response team arrives equipped to handle any situation, from middle-of-the-night water heater failures to weekend sewer line backups.
Slow drains and clogged pipes are more than an inconvenience—they can signal deeper problems in your plumbing system. Our professional drain clearing services use advanced techniques including hydro jetting to remove stubborn blockages and restore proper flow. Whether you're dealing with a backed-up kitchen sink, slow shower drain, or recurring laundry room drainage issues, we identify the root cause and provide lasting solutions.
Your water heater works hard in Maine's cold climate, and when it fails, you need fast, reliable replacement or repair. We install and service both traditional tank and modern tankless water heaters, helping you choose the right system for your home's needs and your budget. Our water heater installation services include energy-efficient options that can significantly reduce your utility bills while providing reliable hot water year-round.
Many Maine homes rely on private well systems, and when your well pump fails, you're without water entirely. Our experienced technicians provide expert well pump replacement and repair services, working with quality brands like Franklin and Amtrol to ensure reliable water delivery. We understand the unique demands of well systems in rural Broome County and can diagnose pressure issues, pump failures, and tank problems quickly.
Whether you're dealing with leaking pipes, frozen pipes, or aging plumbing that needs updating, we provide comprehensive pipe repair and replacement services. Old galvanized pipes in historic Maine homes often need replacing, and we can update your plumbing with modern materials that provide better water quality and pressure.
From leaky faucets to running toilets, we handle all your fixture needs. We also provide professional installation services for new dishwashers, garbage disposals, and other appliances, ensuring proper connections and leak-free operation.
Sewer line problems require immediate attention to prevent property damage and health hazards. Our sewer line repair and clearing services use camera inspection technology to locate blockages and damage, allowing us to provide targeted solutions that save you time and money.

Don't wait for a breakdown during the coldest week of the year. Our furnace repair services address any issue, from ignition problems to blower motor failures. We also offer annual furnace tune-ups that keep your system running efficiently and catch small problems before they become expensive emergencies. Regular maintenance is especially important in Maine's long heating season, where furnaces run almost continuously from fall through spring.
Many Maine homes, particularly older properties, rely on boiler systems for heat. We service all types of boilers, providing repairs, maintenance, and replacement when needed. Whether you have a steam or hot water system, our technicians have the expertise to keep it operating safely and efficiently.
Modern heat pump systems have evolved to handle cold climate performance, making them an increasingly popular choice for Maine homeowners looking to reduce heating costs. These systems provide both heating and cooling, offering year-round comfort with exceptional efficiency. We install premium heat pump systems that are specifically designed for Upstate New York's climate demands.
While Maine's summers may be shorter than in other regions, the humid days of July and August make air conditioning essential for comfort. We provide complete cooling services to keep your home comfortable when temperatures climb.
When it's time to upgrade your cooling system, we offer professional air conditioner installation featuring high-efficiency systems that provide reliable cooling without breaking the bank on summer electric bills. Proper sizing and installation are critical for efficient operation, and our experienced technicians ensure your new AC is perfectly matched to your home's needs.
A broken air conditioner during a summer heat wave is miserable. Our AC repair services get your system back up and running quickly, addressing everything from refrigerant leaks to compressor failures. We also recommend annual AC tune-ups in the spring to ensure your system is ready for summer and to extend its lifespan.
For homes without existing ductwork or for additions and renovations, ductless air conditioning systems offer an excellent solution. We're proud to install Mitsubishi ductless mini-split systems, which provide both heating and cooling with exceptional efficiency and zone control. These systems are perfect for Maine homes where you want to avoid the expense and disruption of installing ductwork.
If you're looking for a system that handles both heating and cooling efficiently, consider our air-source heat pumps. These versatile systems provide year-round comfort with significant energy savings compared to traditional heating and cooling setups.

Our typical response time for emergency service calls in Maine is under two hours, and we schedule maintenance and installation appointments to fit your busy life.

Maine's location in the Southern Tier means extended heating seasons, cold winters that test your plumbing systems, and humid summers where AC becomes essential. Understanding seasonal maintenance helps prevent emergencies and extends system life.
Fall (September-November): Schedule your annual furnace tune-up before the first hard freeze. Check your well pressure tank and consider insulating exposed pipes in unheated spaces. This is also ideal timing for installing a new heating system before winter demand increases.
Winter (December-March): Monitor your heating system for unusual noises or performance issues—catching problems early prevents midnight breakdowns. Keep your thermostat consistent to avoid system strain. During extreme cold snaps, let faucets drip slightly to prevent frozen pipes, especially in older homes or rooms above unheated crawl spaces.
Spring (April-June): Schedule your annual AC maintenance before summer heat arrives. Have your well pump inspected if you noticed pressure fluctuations during winter. This is also an excellent time for sewer line inspections as spring thaw can reveal winter damage.
Summer (July-August): Monitor your AC performance and change filters monthly during heavy use. Check sump pump operation before summer storms. Consider upgrading to a tankless water heater if your current system is aging—installation is easier when heating demands are lower.
Whether you're dealing with an emergency, planning a system upgrade, or scheduling routine maintenance, Action Plumbing, Heating, and Cooling is ready to serve your Maine home. Our NATE certified technicians bring expert knowledge, quality equipment, and small-town service values to every job we complete.
