HVAC Emergencies We Handle
Furnace Failure in Winter
Boise winters regularly drop below 0°F during cold snaps in December and January. When your furnace dies overnight, indoor temperatures can plummet to dangerous levels within hours — especially in older homes with poor insulation in the North End and Bench neighborhoods.
AC Breakdown in Summer Heat
Treasure Valley summers push past 100°F for weeks at a time, and Boise's low humidity means your AC is working harder than you realize. When it quits on the hottest day of the year, heat exhaustion becomes a real risk — especially for elderly residents and young children.
Gas Leak / Carbon Monoxide
If you smell rotten eggs near your furnace or your CO detector goes off, evacuate immediately and call 911 first. Then call us. Gas leaks from aging furnace connections are more common in Boise homes built before 2000 and require immediate professional attention.
No Heat with Elderly or Children
When vulnerable family members are in the home, a heating failure goes from inconvenient to dangerous fast. We prioritize these calls and work to get a technician to your Boise home as quickly as possible — often within 45 minutes during peak winter months.
Refrigerant Leak
An AC blowing warm air in a Boise summer often means a refrigerant leak. Beyond the discomfort, low refrigerant forces your compressor to overwork, risking a $2,000+ compressor replacement if not addressed quickly. Listen for hissing sounds near your outdoor unit.
Complete System Failure
System won't turn on at all — no fan, no heat, no cooling. This could be an electrical issue, a failed control board, or a blown transformer. At Boise's elevation (2,730 feet), HVAC systems work slightly harder than at sea level, which can accelerate wear on older equipment.
While You Wait
What to Do During an HVAC Emergency
Check your thermostat
It sounds simple, but start here. Make sure it's set to the right mode (heat or cool), the temperature is set correctly, and the batteries aren't dead. Switch it to "auto" instead of "on" — a surprising number of emergency calls in Boise are resolved by a thermostat reset.
Check the breaker panel
Your HVAC system runs on a dedicated circuit. Find your electrical panel and look for a tripped breaker — it will be in the middle position between "on" and "off." Flip it fully off, then back on. If it trips again immediately, do not reset it — that indicates a deeper electrical problem.
Check or replace the air filter
A completely clogged filter can cause a furnace to overheat and shut down, or an AC to freeze up. Boise's dusty summer air and cottonwood season in June clogs filters faster than you'd expect. If it's visibly dirty, pull it out entirely — running temporarily without a filter is better than a frozen coil.
Call for emergency help
If the system still won't work, call (208) 391-3951 or fill out the emergency form above. We'll match you with the closest available licensed HVAC technician — typically on-site within 60 minutes anywhere in the Boise metro area.
Don't Delay
When to Call for Emergency HVAC Service
Not every HVAC issue is an emergency — but in Boise's extreme climate, some situations can't wait for a scheduled appointment. The Treasure Valley swings from below 0°F in winter to over 105°F in summer, which means a broken system is more than uncomfortable — it's potentially dangerous.
Call for emergency service if:
- — Your furnace quits and the outdoor temperature is below 32°F
- — You smell gas or rotten eggs near any HVAC equipment
- — Your carbon monoxide detector is sounding an alarm
- — Your AC fails and indoor temperatures exceed 90°F with vulnerable occupants
- — Your system is making loud banging, screeching, or grinding noises
- — Water is actively leaking from your HVAC unit
For non-emergency issues — a system that's running but not efficiently, uneven heating, or a tune-up — you can request a standard appointment and often save on after-hours fees.
