The city of Fraser may be only four square miles of Macomb County, Michigan, but it also has a rich history of farming and commerce. Fraser also became a crossroads for Chicago, Detroit and Canada with the establishment of the Grand Trunk Junction. Today, it remains a happy intersection of schools and parks, friends and families. FLAME is dedicated to helping the Fraser community by providing reliable heating and cooling, plumbing and electrical assistance for all of Fraser as well as Southeast Michigan.
Even a happy, small town is not immune to seasonal HVAC failures inside the home.
