    What to Do While Waiting for Emergency Service

    Take these steps while waiting for our technician to arrive:

    • For heating emergencies: Close curtains to conserve heat, use space heaters safely away from flammables, let faucets drip to prevent frozen pipes
    • For cooling emergencies: Close blinds to block sunlight, use fans for air circulation, stay hydrated especially if children or elderly are present
    • For gas leaks: Evacuate immediately, do not use electrical switches or create sparks, call 911 and your gas company from outside
    • For carbon monoxide detection: Evacuate immediately, call 911, do not re-enter until authorities clear your home

    Frequently Asked Questions

    What qualifies as an HVAC emergency?

    HVAC emergencies include complete heating failure in winter (especially below 40°F), no AC during heat waves over 85°F, gas leaks or gas odors, carbon monoxide detector activation, water leaks causing property damage, electrical issues creating fire hazards, and frozen pipes from heating failure. If you're unsure whether your situation qualifies, call us - we'll help you determine urgency.

    How quickly can you respond to emergencies?

    We prioritize emergency calls based on safety and severity. Life-safety issues (gas leaks, carbon monoxide) receive immediate response. Comfort emergencies (no heat in winter, no AC in summer) typically receive service within 2-4 hours during business hours. After-hours emergencies generally receive response within 4-6 hours depending on technician availability and weather conditions.

    Do you charge extra for emergency service?

    We do not charge overtime fees or emergency surcharges. You pay our standard diagnostic fee plus repair costs at regular rates, even for after-hours, weekend, or holiday service. We provide upfront pricing before performing any work so there are no surprises on your bill.
