FAQs
What are the most common signs my heating system needs repair in Lake City?
Watch for uneven temperatures between rooms, a sudden rise in utility bills, strange noises or odors coming from the furnace or heat pump, short cycling (turning on and off rapidly), or cool air blowing from your vents. Because Lake City’s winter nights can dip into the 30s, addressing these warning signs early prevents complete system failure and keeps your home comfortable.
How fast can Performance Heating & Air Conditioning respond to an emergency heat repair?
We offer 24/7 emergency service within Lake City and surrounding neighborhoods. Most calls received before 10 p.m. are answered within two hours, and after-hours calls are typically handled first thing the next morning. Our fully stocked service vans allow many repairs to be completed on the first visit, minimizing downtime when temperatures drop.
Which types of heating equipment do you service and repair?
Our NATE-certified technicians work on natural-gas and propane furnaces, electric furnaces, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and hybrid dual-fuel systems. Whether your equipment is a newer high-efficiency model or a 20-year-old unit, we carry OEM and high-quality aftermarket parts for all major brands such as Trane, Rheem, Carrier, Lennox, and Goodman.
How much does a typical heat repair cost, and will I get an upfront estimate?
Service calls in Lake City start at a flat diagnostic fee that covers travel and a complete system inspection. Once we determine the issue, you’ll receive a written, itemized quote before any work begins. Minor fixes like a capacitor replacement may run $150–$250, while major repairs such as blower motor replacement can range from $450–$750. We honor the quoted price—no hidden fees.
Can you improve my system’s energy efficiency during the repair visit?
Yes. Along with fixing the immediate problem, we check airflow, thermostat calibration, filter condition, and duct integrity. Simple adjustments—cleaning the burner assembly, tightening electrical connections, and sealing accessible duct leaks—can boost efficiency by 5–15 %. We’ll also recommend upgrades such as smart thermostats or high-efficiency filters if they make sense for your home and budget.
What steps can I take to avoid future heating breakdowns in Lake City’s climate?
1) Schedule professional maintenance every fall—our 21-point tune-up includes cleaning, safety checks, and efficiency testing. 2) Replace or wash filters monthly during peak heating season. 3) Keep supply and return vents unobstructed by furniture or rugs. 4) Install a surge protector to guard sensitive control boards from lightning and power fluctuations common in North Florida. 5) Consider enrolling in our Comfort Club; members receive two precision tune-ups per year, priority scheduling, and repair discounts, helping extend equipment life and reduce surprise breakdowns.
