FAQs
What types of HVAC emergencies do you handle in Alcoa?
Our team is equipped to respond to any heating or cooling crisis, including complete system failures, refrigerant leaks, gas or carbon-monoxide alerts, frozen coils, clogged condensate drains, sparking electrical components, and thermostat malfunctions. Whether you have a furnace, heat pump, central AC, or ductless mini-split, we have the tools and training to get it running safely again.
How fast can you arrive when I request emergency service in Alcoa?
Because we keep fully staffed technicians on call 24/7, our average response time within Alcoa city limits is 60–90 minutes, and often sooner during normal traffic conditions. We also use GPS-enabled dispatching so the closest available technician is routed to you immediately after your call.
Do you offer after-hours, weekend, and holiday HVAC repairs?
Yes. Heating or cooling breakdowns don’t keep business hours, so neither do we. Our phone lines are answered by a live representative any time of day or night, including weekends and all major holidays. There are no blackout dates—if you need us on Thanksgiving or New Year’s Eve, we’ll be there.
What should I do while waiting for the technician if my furnace or AC quits?
First, turn the system off at the thermostat to prevent further damage. Check your air filter and breaker panel; a clogged filter or tripped breaker can sometimes be the culprit. If you smell gas, leave the home immediately and call 911 before contacting us. For summertime AC failures, close blinds to keep heat out; for winter heating failures, layer clothing and use safe space heaters if available. Avoid opening the equipment panels unless you are trained to do so.
Do your service trucks carry parts for on-the-spot repairs?
Yes. Each truck is stocked with the most common replacement parts—capacitors, contactors, blower motors, igniters, thermostats, fuses, belts, and universal controls. In more than 80 % of emergency calls, we can complete the repair during the first visit without needing to order parts or return another day.
How much does emergency HVAC service cost and are financing options available?
We charge a flat diagnostic fee for after-hours calls, which covers travel, system inspection, and a written estimate. You’ll approve any repair costs before work begins—no surprise bills. For major repairs or full equipment replacement, we offer same-day financing with low-interest and no-interest promotional plans (subject to credit approval) so you can restore comfort without straining your budget.
