No heat on the coldest night of the year, or an air conditioner that quits in July. Those are not inconveniences, they are emergencies, and they get expensive fast. We install, repair and maintain heating and cooling systems for Hudson Valley homes and businesses, and our own technicians do the work rather than handing it off.
Call and describe it. We will tell you whether it can wait, whether it is a quick fix, or whether waiting is going to cost you more.
(845) 853-6012When the heat stops in January, everything else stops with it. Pipes freeze, and a frozen pipe that splits can flood a house before the thaw. Most no-heat calls come down to a handful of causes: a failed ignitor or thermocouple, a dirty flame sensor, a circulator pump that quit, low water in a boiler, or a tripped safety switch. Our technicians test the system in order, find the actual failure, and repair that, rather than replacing parts until something works. We answer no-heat calls around the clock, because that is when they happen.
An oversized furnace short-cycles: it blasts heat, shuts off, and repeats, which wears it out and still leaves rooms cold at the far end of the house. An undersized one runs nonstop and never quite catches up. We measure the building, square footage, insulation, windows and duct capacity, and size the equipment to it. We install and service boilers, furnaces, heat pumps and ductless mini-splits, and we explain the difference in operating cost between the options before you commit rather than after.
If the air from your vents smells musty, or one side of the house never gets comfortable, the ductwork is often the reason. Loose joints and disconnected runs leak conditioned air into the attic, basement or crawlspace, so you pay to heat a space nobody lives in. Dust, pet hair and debris collect inside the runs and blow back into rooms every time the system starts. We clean the duct system and check connections and airflow while we are in there, then tell you plainly whether sealing or balancing would make a real difference.
Ductless systems make sense in homes without ductwork: additions, converted attics, and older houses where running new ducts would mean tearing up walls. They also let you heat and cool one room without conditioning the whole house. Heat pumps have come a long way in cold climates, and modern cold-climate models still deliver heat below freezing. The catch is installation. Line set placement, drainage and correct sizing decide whether the system works well or fights you for years. We install, service and repair them, and we will tell you honestly if your house is a good fit.
Most no-heat and no-cool failures announce themselves first. A slightly weak ignitor, a filter nobody has changed, a capacitor on its way out: small things that show up in a fall or spring tune-up and turn into an emergency later. Regular service keeps the system running at the efficiency you paid for and gives you a heads-up before parts fail in the middle of a cold snap. The EZ Home Protection Club covers scheduled maintenance so it does not depend on you remembering to book it.
Furnaces, boilers, heat pumps and air conditioning sized from a real load calculation rather than square footage alone, with the old equipment removed and controls explained before we leave.
Testing in order, ignition, airflow, refrigerant and controls, so you pay for the fix instead of a stack of parts. Common failures are covered with parts we stock on the truck.
Cleaning of supply and return runs, registers and main trunks, plus a look at joints and connections for leaks that waste heated or cooled air before it reaches the room.
Annual tune-ups and repairs for gas and oil boilers, furnaces and heat pumps: cleaning, combustion checks, safety inspection and adjustment so the system is ready for winter.
Installation, service and repair of ductless heads for additions, attics and homes without ducts, including cold-climate heat pump systems that keep heating well below freezing through the winter.
No-heat and no-cool calls answered around the clock, weekends included. We bring the parts that fail most often so a single visit can usually restore heat or cooling.
We run emergency crews for plumbing, heating, septic and water treatment. Call and a dispatcher confirms your arrival window honestly — we will not tell you an hour we cannot keep.
A new furnace, boiler or heat pump is a major purchase, and we offer financing options that spread the cost over time. Ask for payment terms with your estimate so you can compare them against repairing what you already have.
Based in Lake Katrine, NY. These are the counties and towns our trucks cover every week.
Once a year, ideally in the fall before the heating season starts. An annual tune-up cleans the burners, checks combustion and safety controls, and catches worn parts while they are still cheap to replace. Skipping it is how small problems turn into no-heat calls in January. Heat pumps benefit from a spring check as well.
Usually low refrigerant from a leak, a dirty condenser coil, or a failing capacitor. Refrigerant is not consumed, so if it is low, something leaked, and simply recharging without finding the leak means it will happen again. We test the system, locate the leak, and tell you what makes sense for the age of your unit.
Modern cold-climate heat pumps do deliver heat well below freezing, and they are a real option here when they are sized and installed correctly. The honest answer is that performance depends on the model and the house. Many homeowners run a heat pump most of the year with a backup for the coldest stretch, and we will give you the real numbers.
It removes dust, debris and buildup from the runs so it stops blowing back into your rooms, and it gives us a look inside the system. If we find disconnected runs, leaks or crushed flexible duct, we will show you and explain whether sealing or repair is worth the cost. It is not a cure for every comfort complaint.
Yes. A full system replacement is a major expense and financing options are available. We will go over payments with your estimate so you can compare them against the cost of repairing old equipment. Call (845) 853-6012 and we will walk you through what you qualify for.
Free estimate, honest diagnosis, and a crew that shows up when we say we will.
