Franklintown is a small borough deep in York County farm country, about 12 miles south of Mechanicsburg — a 22-minute drive down US-15 and out PA-194. It is genuinely rural, and we will be honest: it is one of our longer runs. But we serve it, because the homes out here often have the hardest time finding a contractor who understands their setups.
Rural homes, mixed heat sources
Out in Franklintown, there is no natural gas main to speak of. Homes lean on propane furnaces, oil, and wood or pellet stoves as backup — and often a combination, cobbled together over the years. Long driveways, older farmhouses with additions, and detached shops all add to the mix. The trick here is a heating system that is dependable when the nearest help is a drive away, which is why we push maintenance and reliability over gadgets.
When you live this far out, a no-heat call is a longer wait for everyone. A fall maintenance visit that catches a failing igniter or a fouled burner before winter is worth far more here than in town.
A job story on a farm lane
A farmhouse off a gravel lane near town relied on a propane furnace that quit during a cold snap, with a wood stove barely holding the main room. We got out there, found a cracked hot-surface igniter and a clogged flame sensor, and had them back on propane heat the same afternoon. Then we set them up on a maintenance plan so the next failure gets caught in October, not January.

“Propane furnace died in a cold snap and we were leaning on the wood stove. They drove all the way out, fixed a cracked igniter and a bad sensor same day, and got us on a plan so it doesn’t happen again. Grateful they cover us out here.”
