FAQs
What are the most common signs my heating system needs repair?
Watch for uneven temperatures between rooms, unusual noises (grinding, banging, squealing), a persistent burning smell, an unexplained spike in utility bills, short-cycling (turning on and off quickly), or cool air coming from the vents when the thermostat is set to heat. If you notice any of these issues, turn the system off and call our Dunlap technicians—catching problems early usually prevents costlier damage.
How fast can your team respond to a heating emergency in Dunlap?
We offer 24/7 emergency service throughout Dunlap and the surrounding Sequatchie Valley. After you call, a live dispatcher will assign the next available NATE-certified technician. Most customers in the city limits see a truck at their door within 60–90 minutes; rural addresses typically receive service within two hours, weather and road conditions permitting.
Which makes and models of furnaces or heat pumps do you repair?
Our technicians are factory-trained to service all major brands, including Trane, Carrier, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Bryant, York, American Standard, and Daikin. We handle gas, electric, and dual-fuel furnaces, air-source heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and packaged rooftop units. If your equipment is older or an uncommon brand, we can still troubleshoot it and source compatible replacement parts through regional suppliers.
How much does a typical heating repair cost?
Minor fixes such as replacing a faulty ignitor or thermostat sensor usually range from $125–$250. Mid-level repairs like blower motor replacements or heat pump capacitor changes fall between $300–$600. Major components—heat exchangers, compressors, or control boards—can run $800–$1,600. Before any work begins, we perform a diagnostic inspection (currently $89) and provide a written, flat-rate quote so you know the exact price up front—no overtime or hidden fees.
Do you offer maintenance plans that help prevent future breakdowns?
Yes. Our Peak Performance Plan includes two precision tune-ups per year (spring cooling, fall heating), priority scheduling, a 15% repair discount, and no after-hours fees. During a heating tune-up we clean burners, check gas pressure, test safety controls, lubricate moving parts, inspect the heat exchanger for cracks, and verify carbon-monoxide levels. Regular maintenance extends equipment life, maintains manufacturer warranties, and can cut energy bills by up to 20%.
Are there local rebates or tax incentives for upgrading to a high-efficiency heating system?
Absolutely. TVA’s EnergyRight program currently offers rebates of $150–$400 for qualifying ENERGY STAR heat pumps installed in Dunlap. Tennessee homeowners may also claim up to 30% of the project cost (capped at $2,000) through the federal Inflation Reduction Act’s Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit. Our staff can walk you through eligibility, required documentation, and instant-rebate options available at the time of installation.
