About Hot & Cold HVAC

Complete HVAC Solutions Northgate

Every Type of System, Every Brand

We repair all the heating and cooling systems you’ll find in Northgate homes and businesses. Central air that won’t cool. Furnaces that won’t heat. Heat pumps acting up. Ductless systems with problems. Package units on commercial buildings. If it heats or cools your space, we can fix it. Our experience covers every major brand—Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, and dozens of others. Old systems that need special attention, new high-efficiency units with complex controls, and everything in between. We keep parts for common repairs in stock, so you’re not waiting weeks for your comfort to return. Emergency service is available 24/7 because HVAC problems don’t follow business hours. When it’s 102 degrees outside and your AC dies on a Sunday, you need help immediately. When your heat goes out during an unexpected cold snap, waiting until Monday isn’t an option.

How fast can you get to my Northgate home for repairs?

Same-day service for most calls, and 24/7 emergency response when you can’t wait. During busy seasons, we prioritize based on urgency—complete system failures, safety issues, and extreme weather situations get immediate attention. For routine repairs, we typically schedule within 24 hours of your call. Emergency situations get faster response, especially when health and safety are concerns. Our technicians carry common parts and tools in their vehicles, so most problems get resolved during the first visit. When you call, we’ll give you an honest timeframe based on your specific situation and current demand. No false promises, no showing up three days late without calling.

What kinds of HVAC systems do you work on?

All of them. Central air conditioning, gas and electric furnaces, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, package units, and commercial systems. We’ve worked on equipment from every major manufacturer, from brand-new high-efficiency models to older systems that need experienced attention. Our technicians stay current with training on new technology while maintaining expertise with older equipment. Whether your system is five years old or twenty-five years old, we have the knowledge and parts access to get it working properly. Commercial properties get the same expert service, including rooftop units and larger capacity systems. If you’re not sure whether we can help with your specific equipment, just call and describe what you have—we’ll let you know immediately if we’re the right fit.

How much will my HVAC repair cost?

We give you the exact price before starting any work, period. After diagnosing your system, we explain what needs to be fixed and provide the total cost—labor, parts, everything. No hidden fees, no surprise charges when we hand you the bill. Simple problems cost less, complex repairs cost more, but you’ll know exactly what you’re paying for and why. We don’t inflate estimates or push unnecessary work. If multiple repair options exist, we’ll explain each approach and let you decide what makes sense for your situation and budget. When repair costs approach replacement value, we’ll discuss that honestly. Sometimes fixing an older system makes perfect sense, sometimes replacement is smarter—we’ll give you the information to make the right choice for your circumstances.

Do you guarantee your repair work?

Yes, we warranty both our workmanship and the parts we install. Specific warranty terms depend on the type of repair and components used, but you’re protected if the same problem happens again due to our work. Most standard repairs include warranty coverage for both labor and parts for a specified period. If the repair fails within the warranty period because of something we did, we return and fix it at no charge. We also honor manufacturer warranties on new parts we install. We explain warranty coverage clearly when we complete your repair, so you know exactly what’s protected and for how long. Our goal is getting the job right the first time, and our warranty commitment backs up that standard.

Can you help prevent problems with maintenance service?

Absolutely, and it’s one of the smartest investments you can make in your HVAC system. Regular maintenance prevents most emergency repairs, keeps your system running efficiently, and extends equipment life significantly. Our maintenance service includes thorough cleaning, inspection, and adjustment of key components. We catch potential problems before they become expensive failures, optimize system performance, and help keep your energy bills reasonable. We can set up maintenance schedules that fit your needs—annual service, seasonal checkups, or more frequent attention for heavily used commercial systems. Preventive maintenance costs a fraction of emergency repairs and helps ensure your system is ready when you need it most.

What should I do when my HVAC completely stops working?

First, check your thermostat settings and circuit breaker—sometimes the fix is simpler than you think. If those basics don’t solve the problem, call us immediately, especially during extreme weather when system failure becomes a safety issue. Don’t keep trying to restart the system, as this can sometimes cause additional damage. If you have no cooling during hot weather, stay hydrated and use fans if available. If heating fails during cold weather, dress warmly and close off unused rooms to conserve heat. We prioritize complete system failures, particularly during peak heating and cooling seasons. Our emergency service means you don’t have to endure extreme temperatures for days waiting for help—we’ll get someone out to assess your situation and start working toward a solution as quickly as possible.
