BETLEM Residential Heating & Air Conditioning

Our roots in heating and air conditioning date back to 1923 with the pioneering spirit of the late Gerard C. Betlem who founded the Betlem Heating Company. He started first by specializing in residential heating and manufactured his own furnace to improve quality and tailor them to each job. His product, called the General Gas Furnace was an industry leader by utilizing a blower to offer forced air heating. Over the past 97 years a lot has happened at Betlem. The company has grown to over 185 employees and is a leader in the heating, ventilating, and air conditioning industry in Upstate New York.

Blown-In spray foam insulation provides a continuous insulating air barrier that helps stabilize and maintain inside temperatures. In addition, it resists heat movement and prevents moisture infiltration through air leakage, as well as minimizing dew point problems and condensation. Soundproofing - The foam insulation effectively reduces noise from outside sources by sealing cracks and gaps that allow sound to penetrate the building.
