Call Today... Relax Tonight

4.8 Google Rated

Your home should feel fresh, comfortable, and easy to breathe in. In Wausau, that is not always simple. Central Wisconsin homes deal with long heating seasons, summer humidity, tightly sealed windows, dust buildup, and stale indoor air that can leave rooms feeling stuffy or uncomfortable.

Here’s the thing: if you are noticing more dust, dry air in winter, muggy rooms in summer, or odors that never seem to go away, it may be time for professional air quality testing and solutions in Wausau. Southport Plumbing, Heating & Cooling helps homeowners find the source of the problem and recommend practical fixes like air purifiers, duct cleaning, HEPA filtration, and whole-home humidity control. We also help families in nearby Schofield and Stratford improve comfort throughout the year.

We know how frustrating it is when your house never feels quite right.

Call today to schedule indoor air quality testing and get a customized solution for your home.

Benefits of Home Air Quality Testing & Services

  • Cleaner air Indoor air improvements can reduce dust, airborne particles, and everyday pollutants that make your home feel dirty or stale.

  • Better comfort The right humidity level helps your home feel less dry in winter and less sticky in summer.

  • Less strain on your HVAC system Cleaner ducts and better filtration can help heated and cooled air move more efficiently through your home.

  • Fewer lingering odors Air purifiers and humidity control can help tackle cooking smells, musty odors, and that closed-up house smell.

  • A healthier-feeling home Many homeowners choose air quality solutions because they want fresher air for kids, guests, and anyone sensitive to dust or poor airflow.

Indoor Air Quality Services

What most homeowners don’t realize is that indoor air problems usually come from more than one source. It might be dust collecting inside ductwork, moisture that is too high or too low, an older filter that is not catching enough particles, or poor air circulation from room to room. That is why we start with air quality testing and a real conversation about what you are noticing at home.

From there, we recommend solutions that fit your space and your goals. That can include duct cleaning to remove buildup, air purifier installation for cleaner circulating air, whole-home humidifiers to ease dry winter air, dehumidifiers for damp summer conditions, and HEPA air filters for stronger filtration. If your comfort issues are tied to system performance, we may also suggest pairing air quality improvements with routine HVAC care to keep airflow consistent.

Duct Cleaning & Filtration

If vents are pushing out dust or your home gets dirty again right after cleaning, your duct system and filters may be part of the problem. We help homeowners choose practical upgrades that work with their existing heating and cooling equipment, including HEPA-style filtration where appropriate.

Humidity Control & Air Purification

Let’s be honest: dry winter air can leave your skin and sinuses miserable, while humid summers can make your whole house feel sticky. Whole-home humidity control and air purifiers help balance comfort in every season, whether you live in Wausau or nearby Athens or Wittenberg.

Our team explains your options in simple language, performs the work carefully, and helps you understand what to expect after installation. If your air quality concerns connect to overall system comfort, we can also evaluate how your heating and cooling setup is supporting your home environment.

Tyler and Dakota installed our new A/C unit today. Right form the time they arrived (on time!) until they departed their professionalism, skills and gentlemanly manners never swayed. They are excellent representatives of Southport. More reasons why we use Southport exclusively! A job well done, Tyler and Dakota!

Andrew performed the annual plumbing inspection 2/20/2025. He is very knowledgeable and skilled in his work. He discovered a couple of situations that needed immediate attention. Those situations were promptly addressed and corrected. Like Tyler and Dakota Andrew is a stellar example of the excellent service from Southport!

On 10/22/2026, Tyler did the annual inspection on our furnace and found a couple concerns. He explained the situation and gave fair estimates. A great representative of Southport!

Also on 10/22/2026, Caleb stopped by abd presented estimates for replacing the furnace. He is very knowledgeable and presents all options very well. Another excellent representative of Southport!

On 10/23/2026 Service Technician Jacob performed the necessary repairs and cleaning of our furnace. Jacob is not extremely knowledgeable, he is personable and efficient. Definitely another outstanding representative of a great company. Well done, thank you!

Southport was exceptional from beginning to end. We had an unfortunate incident last week Wednesday that lead us to having to replace our Furnace.

After an emergency call to our local Fire Department in Caledonia and WE Energies, we reached out to Southport Home Services. They had a Technician out early the next morning to evaluate the issue, within minutes Nathan Simons called and was in our home explaining the many options that best fit our needs. He was very detailed, thorough, knowledgeable and displayed outstanding customer service.

The Technicians installed our new Furnace that next day. We are beyond pleased and thank you Southport for the fabulous Customer Service and explaining our options.

We highly recommend Southport to any and everyone looking for Five Star service!!

Many Thanks!

Sincerely Lynda & Mark Behringer

We just replaced our entire HVAC system and Hot Water Heater this week with Southport...and we could not be happier!! Our previous system was working but was old...and Southport was able to come out IMMEDIATELY...even during this severe cold snap!! Starting with Nate, who came out to inspect, estimate the job and oversee it...to out technicians, Ryan, Casey and Jackson, these guys ROCKED!!! They were super polite...super efficient...super informative and they left the work area amazingly cleaned up! They were creative in accomplishing an off the beaten road request that we made and everything is in order. When you need HVAC work done...LOOK NO FURTHER!!!

10/22/26: So due Operator error, (or as I say, owner stupidity…LOL…😜), I called regarding a stuck button on my 8 year old electronic thermostat. We scheduled an appointment with SOUTHPORT and Tyler S. was just here and I was told something I probably already knew, (apparently). The button on the thermostat is ALWAYS-that way because the entire thing runs on a TOUCH SCREEN!!!! DUH!!!!
The visit was awesome and Tyler and his mentor giggled with me and DID NOT make me feel stupid at all!! Excellent customer service, from scheduling the appointment (same day) through the end of the appointment. Thank you Tyler and alllof the Southport staff!!!

I want to give a shout out to HVAC technician Vincent Beyer who provided much more than a simple routine check of my furnace. For example, he went through a list of suggestions to make my unit last longer, operate safer, and improve its efficiency. He explained technical items in ways that I could understand their need and how they operated within the whole system. We finished his visit by sitting down and covering every point we had discussed to make sure I understood and was comfortable with all the options and details.

In my opinion, you couldn't have a finer representative for your company.

I had my annual furnace/heat pump checkup this morning. Abraham Celis was the HVAC technician. He comleted a very thorough inspection and went over the results completely with me. Abraham took the time to insure the checkup was done in a quality manner, not just rushing to complete the job and to get to his next stop. I was impressed with Abraham's friendliness and professionalism. Another job well done by Southport.
I had my annual Heat Pump AC checkup today (8/26/26) by Southport. As always, their technician Zach Birkholrz did a thorough and excellent job. Zach is very pleasant and professional and explains the checkup process and results very clearly. And, as a bonus, he gets along with our dog.

Joe Suchla replaced our two outside faucets and main water shut-off today. The rear faucet was only accessible from a basement crawl space, so he installed a secondary shut-off valve in the baseme t so I did not have to enter the crawl space to shut off the faucet in the winter months. He also bought the main water shut-off up to code with a shut-off valve on each side of the meter. Joe arrived on time, performed all plumbing upgrades professionally, kept me informed of the upgrade progress, and cleaned up at the end of the job. We are very pleased with the job Joe did and have always been pleased with the work Southport has done for our plumbing and HVAC needs. We highly recommend Southport.

Jackson did an excellent job of system check of our AC. He explained everything he checked and the meaning of all test results. A very friendly and professional service tech. Highly recommend SouthPort and Jackson.
