FAQs
What are the most common warning signs that my heating system needs professional repair?
Watch for uneven temperatures between rooms, a sudden rise in utility bills, strange noises (grinding, banging, or squealing), short-cycling (system turns on and off rapidly), weak airflow, or the presence of unusual odors. If you notice any of these symptoms—or your thermostat settings no longer match the actual room temperature—schedule a service call right away. Addressing small issues early in the Palmer climate prevents larger, more expensive failures when temperatures drop below freezing.
How quickly can your Palmer-based technicians respond to a no-heat emergency?
We offer 24/7 emergency dispatch throughout Palmer and the surrounding Valley. Most calls received before 10 p.m. are answered within two hours; overnight calls are prioritized for first-available morning slots. Because our parts warehouse is stocked locally, many repairs are completed in a single visit. In severe cold snaps, we add extra technicians to the rotation so no household is left without heat for more than a few hours whenever possible.
Do you service all brands and types of heating equipment?
Yes. Our certified technicians are trained on gas furnaces, oil furnaces, electric furnaces, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, and hydronic (boiler) systems from major manufacturers such as Trane, Lennox, Carrier, Goodman, Rheem, Daikin, Mitsubishi, and more. We maintain up-to-date diagnostic software and carry universal replacement parts on our trucks, allowing us to troubleshoot and repair nearly any make or model found in Palmer homes and small businesses.
What should I do while waiting for the technician to arrive if my heater stops working?
1. Turn off the system at the thermostat and breaker to avoid further damage. 2. Check your air filter and replace it if it is clogged; sometimes airflow restriction causes shutdowns. 3. Ensure all supply and return vents are open and not blocked by furniture. 4. If you smell gas, leave the building immediately, call 911, and then our emergency line. 5. Keep pipes from freezing by running faucets at a trickle and closing blinds or curtains to retain heat. 6. Have your furnace model number available; it speeds up parts matching when we’re on the way.
Are your heat repair services covered by any warranties or guarantees?
Absolutely. We stand behind our workmanship with a 1-year labor warranty: if the same component we repaired fails within twelve months under normal use, we’ll fix it again at no charge. All replacement parts carry the manufacturer’s warranty—typically 1 to 10 years depending on the component. Additionally, every customer receives a written service report and a 100% satisfaction guarantee: if you’re not satisfied with our professionalism, timeliness, or cleanup, we will make it right or refund the service fee.
How can I reduce future breakdowns and extend the life of my heating system?
1. Schedule annual preventive maintenance each fall to clean burners, check safety controls, and calibrate the thermostat. 2. Replace or wash air filters every 1–3 months to maintain airflow. 3. Keep outdoor heat pump units clear of snow, ice, and debris. 4. Seal air leaks around doors, windows, and duct joints so your system runs less often. 5. Install a programmable or smart thermostat to avoid excessive cycling. 6. Consider enrolling in our Palmer Comfort Club, which bundles bi-annual tune-ups, priority scheduling, and repair discounts, saving the average homeowner 15% on total heating costs over the life of the equipment.
