Nichols HVAC Corp. is a Weare heating and cooling company, and its New Hampshire HVAC licence, GF2313049, held by Benjamin D. Nichols, is active on the state registry. The BBB lists Benjamin Nichols as the owner, gives the company an A grade and shows it as accredited. A recent customer says Ben helped repair a poorly done job by another company, came up with a fix and identified problems with the initial install, and that his team has been back since for yearly maintenance. A 2026 customer described a big job replacing an old oil furnace with a hybrid HVAC system in their 260-year-old house, and said the work went quick. A 2026 reviewer said Ben and his crew removed an old oil tank, water heater and furnace, replaced it with a propane burner and handled everything start to finish. A 2026 customer wrote that Ben beat the competitors' quote for the same system and had their new propane system installed and running in under 48 hours. A 2024 customer said Ben and his crew installed a 5 zone mini split system in their home. In a 2023 review, a customer said it was one week from quote to install of their 3 unit mini splits. A 2023 customer said a mini-split had an error code after power failures, and they came out within a couple of hours and fixed the problem. A 2025 customer said they woke on a cold winter morning to no heat and hot water, and Ben came and installed a new furnace the next day. A 2023 customer said Ben checked their boiler and was upfront about how long it would last; after installing the new boiler, they came back the next day to double-check. A 2024 customer said their central A/C stopped working and the owner came out the same day, found the issue and fixed it. In a 2024 review, a customer described a new Bosch system with a heat pump as main heat, central AC with 3 zones and a lot of new ductwork, and called the job very expensive but a fair price for the workmanship. That 2024 customer said Ben had to return a few times to replace faulty new equipment and work out a smart thermostat issue, with no service fees. On Reddit's r/newhampshire, a commenter writes that their company does a ton of work with Nichols hvac.

Ben helped us repair a poorly done job by another company last summer - he was able to come up with a fix and identified problems with the initial install. Since then we’ve had his team back to do yearly maintenance and have had a great experience.
A big job replacing an old oil furnace with a hybrid HVAC system in our very 260 year old house. Service was excellent and and work went quick - we are excited and ready for Summer!
Ben and his crew are great. Very detail oriented. They removed an old oil tank, water heater, and furnace and replaced it with a propane burner. They handled everything start to finish for a fair price and provided excellent service. They are all around nice people. I would highly recommend them for any project.
Punctual, extremely professional, honest and high quality. Ben beat the competitors quote for the same system by a huge margin and had our new propane system installed and running in under 48 hours. Craftsmanship is immaculate. Couldn’t be more appreciative of their services in such a high stress time. Customers for life
I recently had the pleasure of working with Nichols HVAC Corp for an HVAC installation and service in our new home and I couldn’t be more impressed with their professionalism, expertise, and customer care! From the moment I contacted them, the team was incredibly responsive, providing me with detailed information and a clear, upfront estimate. The technicians who came to my home were not only punctual but also extremely knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the process and answer all my questions, making sure I felt comfortable every step of the way. The installation was seamless, and the quality of the equipment they recommended has made a noticeable difference in the comfort of my home. What truly sets Nichols HVAC Corp apart, however, is their dedication to customer satisfaction. After the installation, they followed up to ensure everything was running smoothly and offered maintenance tips to maximize the system's efficiency. It's rare to find a company that goes above and beyond like this. If you’re looking for reliable, skilled, and customer-focused HVAC professionals, I highly recommend Nichols HVAC Corp. Their service is top-notch, and I will definitely be a lifelong customer!
