What heating systems do Centerville homes have?

Centerville more than quadrupled between 1980 and 2000, which makes a 1980s or 90s two-story, split-level or rambler on a suburban lot the most common house here, usually with a gas furnace in a basement mechanical room and central air. Many of those homes are on their second furnace by now, and some still run a first air conditioner or its first replacement. A smaller group of older houses sits near Main Street, from the decades when Centerville was a crossroads village, and those can hide chimney venting and ductwork that was added in stages.

Xcel Energy supplies natural gas in Centerville, and a gas furnace is the usual heat source.

What are Centerville homes like to heat and cool?

Centerville's first house went up in 1850, and in 1854 settlers named Peltier, LaValle and LaMotte platted a town named for its central spot between Saint Paul, Stillwater and Anoka. Families from Quebec and elsewhere in Canada founded the Church of St. Genevieve, a sawmill was running by 1854, and the town stayed small for a century, with 209 residents in 1950 and 534 in 1970. Centerville Elementary opened in 1959, near the end of that quiet stretch.

Then the subdivisions came: 734 residents in 1980, 1,633 in 1990 and 3,202 in 2000, all within about 2.4 square miles wedged inside Lino Lakes. The 1980s houses are often on their second furnace, and the 1990s houses are reaching the age when original condensing furnaces and air conditioners give out. Growth slowed after 2000, so replacement, not new construction, drives the work.

What goes wrong with heating in Centerville in winter?

If your 1990s Centerville two-story has a bedroom over the garage, it's probably the coldest room in January. Its floor sits above unheated space, the duct feeding it often runs through the garage ceiling or a cold joist bay, and the air arrives having lost much of its heat. Sealing and insulating that duct run and the floor over the garage helps more than turning up the thermostat, and a small ductless head is the fallback when the room still lags.

What goes wrong with cooling in Centerville in summer?

Most of Centerville is Xcel Energy territory, where Saver's Switch can cycle an enrolled air conditioner on high-demand afternoons, with savings on the bill in return, and AC Rewards does something similar through a smart thermostat for an annual reward. The east side is Connexus Energy territory, with its Wi-Fi PowerNap program. If you're enrolled, a house that warms a little late on a hot afternoon is doing what the program intends, and cooling a bit extra in the morning offsets it. An AC that stays off for hours outside those events needs a repair call.

Which utilities and rebates apply in Centerville?

A high-efficiency gas furnace falls under Xcel's Heating Equipment Rebates; check its participating-contractor rules before counting on one. Most homes also buy Xcel electricity, which brings its Residential Cooling Rebates and heat pump rebates handled by Trade Partner Network contractors. The east side is on Connexus Energy instead, with its own heat pump and central air rebates. Before you buy, ask whether the rebate you want requires a registered contractor. Minnesota's HEAR and HOMES rebates had not launched as of mid-2026, so don't plan around them yet.

Rebate programs change every year; check the utility's current terms before you buy. Our guides: Xcel and CenterPoint rebates, heat pump rebates, what happened to the federal credits.

Why are so many of our Centerville neighbors replacing furnaces at the same time?

Their houses went up at the same time. Centerville grew from 734 residents in 1980 to 3,202 in 2000, so whole streets got furnaces and air conditioners within a few years of each other, and that equipment is aging out together. A furnace from the 1990s is now roughly 27 to 36 years old. Replacing it before it fails in a January cold snap leaves time to compare written quotes and Xcel rebates.

We bought one of the older houses near Main Street in Centerville. What should an HVAC check cover?

Start with the venting. Older houses often vent a furnace or water heater into a masonry chimney that has outlived several appliances, so we test draft and look for a missing or damaged liner. Then the ducts, since rooms added over the years may have long runs or none at all. If there's no CO alarm within 10 feet of every sleeping room, add one; state law requires it. And learn where the gas shutoff is.

Does replacing a furnace or air conditioner in Centerville need a city permit?

Yes. Centerville's mechanical permit application lists furnaces, air conditioners, chimney and flue work, and ductwork, and it asks for the contractor's mechanical bond number. The State Building Code requires an inspection of the finished work, which is scheduled with the city's inspections department. Ask who pulls the permit before you sign, and whether it is on the written quote.

Our house on Centerville's east side gets Connexus power. Does Xcel's furnace rebate still apply?

Xcel's furnace rebate can still apply, because furnace rebates follow the gas bill, and Xcel Energy is Centerville's gas utility. Your electric utility decides the rest: on Connexus Energy, the heat pump rebates, central AC rebate and PowerNap program come from Connexus instead of Xcel. Bring one of each bill to the quote and we'll point you to the right utility's program and ask whether it needs a registered contractor.
