Homart Furnaces

Homart was the trade name for a brand of furnaces marketed by Sears Roebuck in the 1940s. Dornback was one of Sears' suppliers at the time, however, it isn't clear whether Dornback ever directly manufactured any of the Homart furnaces. What is clear is that Dornback no longer markets Homart furnaces.

Dornback makes a full line of high-efficiency commercial and residential gas and oil-fired warm-air furnaces that can run conventional cooling systems. Adams owns the Dornback and Spartan Climate Control brands of heating and cooling equipment.

History of Homart

Based on old newspaper clippings, it appears that Homart furnaces were actively marketed between (at least) 1946 - 1968.

Dornback Hardware and Plumbing Company was founded in 1907 in Cleveland, Ohio. In 1923, Mr. Dornback added sales and installation of home heating equipment. In the late 1940's, Dornback became a major supplier to the Sears Roebuck Company under their trade name "Homart."

Product Lines

Dornback Furnace Division makes four series of high-efficiency furnaces: Highboy, Horizontal, Lowboy, and Counterflow. All of these are adaptable for summer air-conditioning units by adding a cooling package to the existing or oil-fired warm air furnace. A wide range of models and sizes is available. Homart furnaces are available from Sears Roebuck Company and through contractors.
