How JBN Mechanical Works — No iPad, No Pressure
(Because, If it walks like a duck...)
Whatever you do, don't sign the iPad the guy standing in your kitchen is waving in your face for a "today only" discount on an overpriced system you probably don't need. Heavy advertising, cheap inspection offers, commissioned salespeople, and relentless follow-up texts and emails — that's how you spot the private equity owned corporate chains. Quack!
I don't make replacement recommendations without first doing my own analysis of what's going on with your current system and offering repair options — unless you tell me you don't want it. If I do recommend replacement, you get a detailed written proposal that evening for the system you need and nothing more unless I know it can help you.
No "good, better best" upsell strategies with "act now" inflated pricing and bogus seasonal discounts and manufacturer rebates that really save you nothing.
If you want an honest answer about what's going on with your system — new or old — call John at JBN Mechanical: (814) 240-2455. Owner operated local specialist since 2012.
Our work includes installation, repair, and replacements of Geothermal Heat Pumps, Standard and Variable Speed Air to Air Heat Pumps, Natural Gas and Propane Furnaces, Air Conditioners, Ductless Splits and more.
Prior to establishing JBN, John managed a staff of mechanical, architectural and electrical project managers for
Penn State University while pursuing a Bachelor of Science degree in Organizational Leadership. He also served as President of the Penn State University Staff Advisory Council representing over 20,000 university employees. John has been a EPA Universally Certified Technician since 1993.
JBN Mechanical is an Authorized American Standard dealer, Mitsubishi Electric dealer and Climatemaster geothermal dealer.

Variable Speed Technology!
Todays heat pumps are amazing!
They produce much more heat at lower outdoor temperatures - and at a higher efficiency. In terms of comfort, there is NO comparison. That drafty feeling and luke warm supply air temperatures are a thing of the past! A properly sized and installed heat pump combined with a humidifier by APRILAIRE will make a believer out of you, and save you a ton of money.
Variable Speed Gas Furnaces
Gas furnace technology has seen huge advances in the past decade.
The systems we are installing today burn fuel only at the rate needed to meet the demand.
If you are used to your furnace kicking on with a full blast of hot air and noise and then quickly shutting off, you will love the variable speed furnaces by American Standard.
You can expect slower, quieter operation and balanced temperatures throughout the home.
Ductless Splits
No room for ductwork?
The Wall Mounted Hyper Heat System by Mitsubishi delivers up to 90% of it's rated heating capacity down to 5 degrees F.
If you dont have ductwork this is the system for you. The switch from oil or electric baseboard heat to a ductless system is sure to satisfy!
By FAR the best solution for saving money.
If you have an older geo, and your repair and maintenance bills are climbing, consider an upgrade to todays higher efficiency systems. Use the same well your existing system us using now and start saving.
