FAQs
What constitutes a heating emergency and when should I call for 24/7 service?
If your furnace, boiler, or heat pump stops producing heat altogether, is making burning or electrical smells, is leaking gas, or the indoor temperature drops below safe levels (especially with children, seniors, or pets in the home), you should request emergency service. In Oneida’s cold climate, extended loss of heat can lead to frozen pipes and health risks, so it’s best to call as soon as you notice a critical issue.
Are your technicians really available 24/7, even on holidays and weekends?
Yes. Our emergency team operates around the clock—nights, weekends, and all major holidays included. When you call, a live dispatcher in Oneida will answer, gather your information, and immediately route the nearest on-call technician to your address.
How fast can a technician get to my home in Oneida during an emergency?
Response time averages 60 minutes or less within Oneida city limits, depending on weather and road conditions. We strategically stage service vehicles across Madison and Oneida counties so a fully stocked truck is always close by. You’ll receive an ETA by text or phone as soon as the technician is dispatched.
What kinds of heating and air-conditioning systems do you repair in emergency situations?
Our EPA-certified technicians service gas and oil furnaces, electric and gas boilers, ductless mini-splits, heat pumps, hybrid systems, rooftop units, and packaged HVAC equipment. We also handle AC compressors, condensers, and air handlers if the cooling side fails during warm weather.
Will I pay extra for after-hours emergency heat repair?
There is a modest emergency dispatch fee that covers the cost of operating a 24/7 service, but all diagnostic rates and repair pricing are the same fair, flat rates we charge during standard business hours. You’ll receive a written quote for approval before any work begins, so there are no surprise charges.
Is there anything I should do before the emergency technician arrives?
For safety, turn off the heating system at the thermostat and shut off the fuel supply valve if you smell gas or see signs of a leak. Clear a path to the equipment, secure pets, and gather any recent maintenance records. Avoid attempting DIY fixes on gas lines or electrical components—just describe the symptoms to our dispatcher so the technician can bring the right parts and tools.
