FAQs
What types of heating systems do your certified technicians service in Dayton?
Our technicians are factory-trained and NATE-certified to repair all major residential and light-commercial heating systems found in the Miami Valley. This includes gas and electric furnaces, heat pumps, ductless mini-split systems, hybrid dual-fuel systems, boilers, and packaged rooftop units. We work on all leading brands such as Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Bryant, and York, and we keep common replacement parts stocked on our trucks so most repairs can be completed in a single visit.
How quickly can you respond to a no-heat emergency in the Dayton area?
We provide true 24/7 emergency service, 365 days a year. Calls received before 10 p.m. typically have a technician at the door within two hours anywhere in Montgomery, Greene, Clark, Miami, or Warren counties. Overnight calls are prioritized by severity, with seniors, families with infants, and medical situations at the top of the list. Our on-call dispatcher keeps you updated with GPS-based arrival times so you know exactly when help will arrive.
What signs indicate my furnace or heat pump needs professional repair?
Common warning signs include: uneven temperatures or cold spots in the home; furnace short-cycling or running continuously; unusual noises such as banging, screeching, or rumbling; a sudden spike in utility bills; the smell of gas or burning electrical components; and frequent thermostat adjustments with little temperature change. If your carbon monoxide detector alarms or your pilot light is yellow instead of blue, shut the system off immediately and call us, as these can signal dangerous combustion issues.
Are your technicians certified and insured, and what does that mean for homeowners?
Yes. Every field technician holds current NATE (North American Technician Excellence) certification, EPA Section 608 refrigerant handling certification, and an Ohio HVAC license. We also carry $2 million in liability insurance and full workers’ compensation coverage. For you, this means repairs are completed to industry and code standards, manufacturer warranties remain valid, and you are protected from liability in the rare event of an on-site accident.
How much do heat repair services usually cost, and do you offer upfront estimates?
Our diagnostic fee is a flat $89 during regular business hours and $129 after hours, which includes travel, a full system inspection, and a written findings report. Once the issue is identified, we give you a “no-surprise” quote before any work begins. Typical repairs range from $150 for igniter or flame sensor replacement to $1,200 for a variable-speed blower motor. We accept all major credit cards, offer 0% financing on repairs over $500 (with approved credit), and honor manufacturer parts warranties to reduce your out-of-pocket expense.
What can I do to prevent future heating breakdowns after the repair?
1) Change or clean filters every 30–60 days. 2) Keep supply and return vents unobstructed. 3) Enroll in our Precision Tune-Up plan, which provides a spring AC check and a fall furnace check, priority scheduling, and a 15% repair discount. 4) Install a programmable or smart thermostat to reduce run time. 5) Have ductwork inspected for leaks and insulation gaps. Routine maintenance not only lowers the chance of unexpected failures but can also improve energy efficiency by up to 20% and extend equipment life by several years.
