Heating & Cooling a Finished Basement

Finishing your basement is one of the best ways to increase the livable space in your home. No matter what plans you have for your newfound space, quality heating and cooling is important to keep your family comfortable all year long!

There are a few ways to ensure your basement stays a pleasant temperature throughout the year, including:

Adding Registers for Increased Airflow - If you already have the ductwork in place, adding registers can allow for more heat or air conditioning to reach the rooms in your basement. This is ideal for when you would like make use of your entire basement.

Installing Additional Ductwork - If your basement is large and unsegmented, it could be beneficial to extend the existing ductwork system to reach the space. Additional registers would be installed, as well.

Installing a Vented Standalone Unit  - If you have always wanted a pellet stove or similar heating system, your newly finished basement could be the perfect spot for it. Stoves are available in a variety of sizes, enabling you to choose the right size to heat your space.

Investing in Space Heaters - If you have created smaller rooms within your basement, investing in a space heater could be a viable and money-saving solution to keeping the space warm and cozy. With electric options, you can move the space heater from room to room, if need be!

Purchasing a Portable AC Unit - Like a space heater, a portable air conditioning unit can be moved to the space that needs to be cooled down. This flexible solution is perfect for when temperatures start to soar.
