Eric Brown

Owner, Central Minnesota Heating and Cooling

Eric Brown owns Central Minnesota Heating and Cooling, the heating and cooling company that has repaired and replaced furnaces, boilers, air conditioners and heat pumps in Minneapolis, Saint Paul and the towns within about 50 miles since 2009. The 138 guides on this site are published under his name.

How these guides are written and checked

  • Our own prices come from the list we publish on the pricing page: a $79 trip charge waived with the repair, $129 tune-ups and written installed ranges.
  • Every national cost figure names its source, and we never pass one off as our price or as a Minnesota price.
  • Rules change, so the guides do too: when the federal 25C credit ended after 2025, and when the EPA changed the refrigerant rules, the affected pages were corrected.
  • Safety comes first in every how-to: homeowner steps stop where a technician should take over, and a gas smell always means leave the house and call the utility.
  • No invented reviews, customer stories or statistics. If something can't be checked, it isn't printed.
