Brandt Heating and Air Conditioning

In 1953, Tim Brandt founded Brandt Sheet Metal Co. in his parents’ garage and with $40.  He started the business with one conviction–his customers.  The $40 disappeared quickly, but the conviction grew stronger.  Tim moved Brandt Sheet Metal Co. three times, in 1953 to East Market Street, in 1956 to North Linn Street, and finally in 1966 to its current home on Highland Court.  In 1961, he changed the name to Brandt Heating and Air Conditioning, Inc and tagged it with the slogan “Only the rich can afford poor heat”.  Tim retired in 2002 in which his son, Bill, succeeded him as President.  He continues to build upon the foundation of customer service as its highest priority.  Now with the 2nd and 3rd generations, Bill, TJ, James, Alissa, and the entire staff of Brandt Heating and Air Conditioning are dedicated to providing the best service and products possible.  In the Spring of 2014, Brandt Heating expanded again when it opened its Fireplace showroom named Fireplaces by Brandt Heating.  Brandt Heating and Air Conditioning takes pride in their involvement in the Iowa City community.  Bill is involved in the Newman Catholic Student Center and Rotary, TJ is involved in St. Patrick’s Church and Kiwanis, James is involved in youth Iowa City baseball and soccer leagues, and Alissa is involved in the University of Iowa Children’s Hospital’s Family Advisory Committee, March of Dimes, and City of Iowa City Ambassadors.

Cost Savings Inevitable with Geothermal

Stay comfortable, no matter whether the weather is blazing hot or freezing cold, and save money long term. Brandt Heating and Air Conditioning installs Tetco Geothermal Heat Pump systems for more energy efficient heating and cooling throughout the year.

Make the Earth Work for You

Geothermal allows you to utilize Mother Earth and her abundant resources to heat and cool your house or business.  In the winter, heat pumps capture the heat from the ground and pumps it into the home through a system of underground coils full of water.  In the summer, the heat pumps pull the heat out of the home and release it outside helping you stay cool and comfy.  At 17 degrees outside, your 95% efficient furnace will produce $0.95 of heat for every $1.00 spent, while a geothermal heat pump will give you approximately $2.72 of heat for every $1.00 spent. That is HUGE savings!
