FAQs
What situations qualify as an emergency furnace repair and when should I call right away?
Call us immediately if you notice no heat coming from the vents, the furnace will not turn on, you smell gas or burning odors, hear loud banging or screeching noises, or the carbon-monoxide alarm is sounding. In Dayton winters these issues can quickly turn into health and safety hazards, so our dispatch team treats them as true emergencies and prioritizes the call.
How fast can your technicians reach my home in the Dayton area?
We maintain a 24/7 live dispatch center and an on-call rotation of certified technicians positioned around Montgomery, Greene, and Miami counties. Most customers inside the Dayton metro area are reached within 60–90 minutes, even on nights, weekends, and holidays. You will receive a real-time ETA and text or phone updates while the technician is en route.
Do you service all brands and types of heating equipment?
Yes. Our technicians are NATE-certified and factory-trained to diagnose and repair gas furnaces, electric furnaces, heat pumps, hybrid systems, and mini-splits from major manufacturers such as Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and York. We stock a wide range of common replacement parts on our service vehicles to complete most repairs in a single visit.
Will there be additional charges for after-hours or holiday emergency service?
Because true emergencies cannot wait, we keep our pricing transparent. There is a modest emergency dispatch fee that covers technician overtime and expedited parts sourcing. You will receive a written estimate before any work begins, and we never charge hidden fees or surprise you with costs once the repair is finished.
What should I do while waiting for the technician to arrive?
1) Turn off the furnace at the thermostat and at the switch on or near the unit. 2) If you smell gas, shut off the gas supply valve, open windows, and move everyone outside until we arrive or the utility deems the home safe. 3) Do not attempt DIY electrical or gas repairs. 4) Gather any warranty paperwork or previous service records to help the technician diagnose faster. 5) Keep pets and children away from the equipment area.
How can I reduce the likelihood of future furnace breakdowns?
The best defense against sudden failures is routine maintenance. Schedule a professional tune-up every fall, replace or clean air filters monthly, keep supply and return vents unblocked, and install a programmable thermostat to reduce strain on the system. We offer a Comfort Club maintenance plan that provides two precision inspections per year, priority scheduling, and discounts on parts and labor so small issues are caught before they become emergencies.
