Testing, Permits, and Compliance
In Lansing and surrounding areas, most heating system installations require a mechanical permit to ensure the work complies with Michigan’s residential building codes. These permits confirm that your system’s fuel connections, electrical wiring, and ventilation are properly installed for safe operation.
As part of our service, Hager Fox handles all necessary permitting and inspection coordination, saving you the hassle and guaranteeing your installation meets every local and state requirement.
Furnace Installation Services
Hager Fox installs gas and electric furnaces designed to meet the heating demands of Lansing’s coldest winters. Gas furnaces provide fast, even heat and are ideal for most Michigan homes, while electric furnaces offer a clean, low-maintenance option for homes without natural gas service.
Our technicians ensure your new furnace is properly sized and safely vented for maximum performance and safety.
Heat Pump System Installs
Our heat pump installation services are ideal for homeowners seeking energy efficiency and year-round comfort. Heat pumps not only heat your home in the winter but can also cool it in the summer, making them an all-in-one solution.
We install traditional and cold-climate heat pumps capable of delivering reliable warmth even in subfreezing temperatures.
Ductless Mini-Split Options
Mini-split systems are perfect for homes without ductwork or for adding supplemental heating to specific rooms, basements, or additions. With zoned temperature control and quiet operation, ductless systems offer flexibility and efficiency. Each unit is professionally installed for seamless operation and long-term reliability.
Thermostat and Zoning Upgrades
Modern thermostat systems let you take control of your comfort and energy use. From Wi-Fi-enabled smart thermostats to advanced zoning systems that allow room-by-room temperature adjustments, our upgrades help you maximize comfort while minimizing waste.
Maintenance and Warranty Basics
After installation, routine maintenance is the best way to protect your investment and keep your manufacturer’s warranty valid. Most manufacturers require annual tune-ups to maintain coverage, and skipping them can void the warranty.
Hager Fox offers professional maintenance services that include filter replacement, airflow inspection, electrical checks, and component cleaning to help your system run reliably and efficiently all year long.

Frequently Asked Questions
How Long Does A Heating System Installation Typically Take?
Most residential heating installations are completed in one day, though larger or more complex systems, such as heat pumps or multi-zone setups, may take an additional day. We always provide a detailed timeline before starting the job so you know exactly what to expect.
What Size Heating System Is Right For My Home?
Proper sizing depends on factors like your home’s square footage, insulation, window quality, and layout. Our team performs detailed load calculations using industry standards to ensure your system delivers consistent comfort without wasting energy.
Should I Replace My Furnace Or Switch To A Heat Pump?
If your existing furnace is over 15 years old or experiencing frequent repairs, upgrading may be more cost-effective in the long run. Heat pumps are an excellent choice if you want both heating and cooling in one system, especially when paired with a high-efficiency backup furnace for extremely cold weather.
Do I Need New Ductwork For A Heating System Replacement?
Not always. If your current ductwork is in good condition and properly sealed, we can typically reuse it. However, if ducts are undersized, leaky, or poorly insulated, replacing or modifying them can significantly improve your new system’s efficiency and comfort.
Are Permits Required For Heating System Installation In Lansing?
Yes. Lansing requires a mechanical permit for most heating system installations to ensure all work meets safety and building standards. Hager Fox handles the entire permitting process for you, including scheduling inspections when required.
