When the heat stops working or the air conditioning can't keep up, the first thing you need is someone who can scope the job on the phone and get out to the property. We cover the full range of heating and cooling work across Spokane, from a furnace that won't fire to a heat pump installation on a property that has never had one. The scope and the price are confirmed before anything is scheduled, so you know what the visit covers before anyone shows up.
Spokane is a city with a wide mix of housing stock: older single-family homes, multi-unit buildings, and commercial properties running systems of every age and configuration. That mix drives a range of jobs, from emergency no-heat calls in the middle of winter to seasonal tune-ups on equipment that has been running for years without a proper inspection. We handle all of it.

An AC that cycles on and runs for hours without bringing the temperature down is not just an annoyance. It usually points to one of a few specific faults: a refrigerant leak that has reduced the system's capacity, a condenser or compressor issue limiting how much heat the unit can move, or a coil that has built up enough debris to block the heat exchange. The system works, but it is not doing the job. Diagnosing it means checking each of those possibilities in order, not guessing at the most common one.
Cold-climate heat pumps rated to operate well below freezing have changed what makes sense for heating in this region. For properties currently on electric resistance heat or older equipment, a heat pump can handle both heating and cooling from a single system. For properties with an existing furnace, a heat pump can work alongside it, taking over at moderate temperatures and handing off to the furnace when conditions call for it. Sizing and equipment selection are part of the conversation before anything is quoted, because a unit that is too small for the load will run constantly and never satisfy.
Standing water near the air handler or furnace is worth calling about before it becomes a larger problem. The most common cause is a blocked or disconnected condensate drain line, which backs up when the system runs. Less commonly, it points to a refrigerant issue causing the evaporator coil to ice and then thaw. Either way, the source needs to be identified before the equipment is run again, and the visit covers that diagnostic before any repair is quoted.
A system that runs without reaching the set temperature is telling you something. It may be undersized for the space it is conditioning, or it may be working against a duct system that is leaking conditioned air before it reaches the rooms that need it. It may also be a refrigerant or airflow issue on the equipment side. The diagnostic visit works through each of those possibilities, because the fix depends entirely on which one is actually causing the problem.
Getting your comfort problem handled starts with a quick call. We are open every day from 5:30 AM to 9:30 PM, which covers early-morning calls when the house did not warm up overnight and evening calls when a system quits after work hours. The price is confirmed on the call before anything is scheduled, so there is no ambiguity about what the visit costs.
A no-heat call in a regional winter is urgent. So is a cooling system that stops working when temperatures climb. When a system goes down completely, describe what the equipment is doing or not doing when you call, and we will scope the job from there. Emergency furnace repair and emergency AC repair are part of the same service, not a separate category.
For rental properties and commercial buildings, a system failure affects more than one person. Property managers and landlords in Spokane deal with this regularly, and the scheduling conversation on the call accounts for it. We confirm the scope and the access arrangement before the visit is booked, so the technician who comes out is prepared for the specific situation rather than arriving without context.
When a system reaches the end of its useful life, the replacement conversation matters more than most people expect. Swapping in a unit of the same size as the one being removed sounds straightforward, but it is not always the right answer. If the original equipment was oversized or undersized for the space, replacing it with the same thing repeats the problem. If the property has been modified since the system was installed, the load calculation has changed.
Sizing a replacement correctly involves looking at the square footage, the insulation, the window area, and the ductwork the new system will work with. A system matched to what the property actually needs runs more efficiently, maintains more even temperatures, and puts less strain on the equipment over its service life. That conversation happens on the call, and the equipment is selected before anything is quoted.
We are honest about when a system still has life in it. If a repair makes more sense than a replacement given the age and condition of the equipment, that is what we will tell you.
A thermostat that is not reading the temperature correctly, not communicating with the system, or holding settings it was never programmed with can cause comfort problems that look like equipment faults. Before a service call concludes that the furnace or the AC is the issue, the control side of the system is part of the diagnostic.
Replacing an older thermostat with a programmable or smart control is sometimes worth doing on its own, independent of any other repair. A modern control can run different temperature schedules for different times of day, respond to occupancy, and in some cases flag performance issues before they become failures. For properties with zoning systems, the control setup is more involved, and that is part of the conversation before installation is scheduled.
Airflow balanced rather than left to chance is the standard a proper installation holds the work to, and the control side of the system is part of reaching it.
A room that never gets comfortable while the rest of the property does is one of the most common complaints on a heating and cooling call, and the cause is almost never the thermostat. The most frequent culprits are duct leaks between the air handler and the register, a register that was never sized for the room it serves, or a zone that was added to the property after the duct system was designed.
Your time matters, so we keep the HVAC job moving, and that means identifying the actual cause rather than treating the symptom. A duct inspection identifies where conditioned air is escaping before it reaches the far end of the system. Duct sealing, duct repair, and in some cases duct replacement bring the distribution side of the system back into balance. The diagnostic visit covers both the equipment and the ductwork, because the answer depends on which one is actually responsible.
Indoor air quality is often affected by the same issues. A duct system that is leaking or pulling from unconditioned spaces circulates more than just air through the living space, and an air filtration upgrade addresses that alongside the comfort problem.
Diagnosed properly. Explained clearly. Priced before the work. That is the order every job follows. When you call, the job gets scoped on the phone, and the price is confirmed before anything is scheduled. You know what the visit covers and what it costs before the technician who comes out arrives at the property.
What moves a quote is the nature of the fault, what has to be accessed to fix it, and whether a repair or a replacement is the better answer given the age and condition of the equipment. A refrigerant leak diagnosis on an accessible outdoor unit is a different scope from a heat exchanger inspection on a furnace in a tight mechanical room. Those differences are explained on the call, not after the fact.
Heating and cooling work gets explained in plain terms. If the fault turns out to be more involved than the initial description suggested, the revised scope and price are discussed before any additional work is authorized. You are not faced with a number you did not agree to.
We handle heating and cooling work throughout Spokane and the surrounding area in Spokane County, including Town and Country, Country Homes, Airway Heights, Fairwood, and Millwood. Whether the property is in the city or in one of the communities around it, the call process is the same: describe the problem, get a scope, and confirm the price before anything is scheduled.
For commercial properties and multi-unit buildings, the scope of the job is discussed on the call with the equipment type and the situation in mind. Property managers covering multiple addresses in the area should call with the system type and what they are seeing, and we will work through the job from there. We take pride in the HVAC work we leave behind, whether the job is a tune-up or a full system replacement. The specifics for a job like this are on our HVAC services page.
The call process is the same regardless of which part of the service area the property is in. When you call, the job is scoped on the phone, the price is confirmed, and the visit is arranged based on what the schedule allows. Properties in the surrounding communities are covered the same way as properties in the city, and there is no separate process for outlying areas.
That is a detail to confirm on the call when the job is booked. We can discuss billing arrangements at that point, and the scope and price are confirmed before any work is scheduled regardless of who is coordinating the visit.
A new installation typically comes with manufacturer documentation for the equipment, covering the terms and registration steps that apply to what was installed. We go through what comes with the specific equipment on the call before the installation is scheduled, so you know what to expect before the job is done.
It does. Undersized or oversized equipment, refrigerant that is not charged correctly, ductwork that does not match the new system's airflow requirements, and control settings that are not calibrated to the equipment all shorten service life and reduce efficiency from the first day of operation. The installation visit is structured to address those factors, not just to get the unit running.
For most repair and maintenance work, yes. The equipment is shut down while the technician works on it, which means the space may be without heating or cooling for the duration of the visit. For a routine tune-up, that is typically a short window. For a more involved repair or a full replacement, the outage is longer, and we discuss the expected duration on the call before the visit is scheduled.
Yes. A thermostat replacement is a standalone job and does not require changing the equipment it controls. If the existing thermostat is misreading temperatures, failing to communicate with the system, or simply too old to support a modern schedule, replacing it on its own is a reasonable call. We handle thermostat replacements and smart-control upgrades independently of any other work.
A furnace that runs continuously but cannot reach the set temperature is usually working against one of a few specific problems: a heat exchanger or burner issue reducing the amount of heat the system produces, a blower that is moving air but not efficiently, or a duct system that is leaking conditioned air before it reaches the living space. The diagnostic visit works through each of those possibilities in order. Describing the symptoms on the call helps narrow down what the visit needs to cover.
Often yes, but it depends on the condition and configuration of the existing ducts. If the ductwork is in good shape and sized correctly for the new equipment, it is reused. If it has significant leakage, damage, or was undersized for the original system, the replacement conversation includes what needs to be addressed on the duct side. That assessment is part of the scope discussion before any work is quoted.
If a diagnostic identifies a fault that requires a part that is not immediately available, the repair is completed in two visits. The first visit confirms the diagnosis and identifies the part needed. The second is scheduled once the part is in. We let you know on the call what the situation is so you can plan around it.
If you are not sure whether the system needs a repair or a full replacement, that is exactly the conversation to have on the call. The diagnostic tells you what the fault is, what fixing it involves, and what the equipment is likely to do next given its age and condition. You get a real answer, not a guess.
Call (208) 551-6932 every day from 5:30 AM to 9:30 PM. We'll go through what the service covers before it is booked.
