Triage

Deciding whether this is an emergency

Most companies won't tell you this, because every after hours call is billable. We'd rather you knew.

Call us now
No heat with freezing temperatures outside
No cooling above 90 degrees
Burning or electrical smell from the system
Carbon monoxide detector alarming
Water actively running from the unit
Breaker tripping repeatedly
Infant, elderly or medically vulnerable person in the house
Call (573) 693-8863
This can wait for morning
One room slightly warmer or cooler than the rest
A noise that has been there for weeks
A thermostat you can't work out how to program
A filter you would like changed
A higher than normal energy bill
Wanting a quote on a replacement system
A second opinion on somebody else's estimate
Book a normal appointment

Not sure which side you're on? Call anyway and describe it. If it can safely wait until morning, we'll say so rather than charge you an after hours rate for it.

Why this exists

Somebody has to be the one who picks up

Around the Lake of the Ozarks and Jefferson City, plenty of heating and cooling companies only take calls during business hours. That's a reasonable way to run a company, and it works fine right up until a furnace quits on a Friday night in January with a house full of people.

24 Hour Heating and Cooling exists to cover exactly that gap. It's the actual service, which is why the number is on every page of this site and why it's worth saving in your phone before you need it.

While you wait

Before we get there

None of this replaces a technician, but it prevents a bad night from turning into a worse one.

Shut the system off

If it's making a noise it shouldn't, smells wrong, or keeps tripping the breaker, turn it off at the thermostat and leave the breaker off. Running a failing compressor or a cracked heat exchanger makes the repair bigger and, in the second case, dangerous.

Close the house down to one area

With no heat, shut doors to rooms nobody is in and gather everyone into one space. It's far easier to hold temperature in a small area, especially in a lake house with high ceilings.

Protect the pipes

Below freezing with no heat, open cabinet doors under sinks on exterior walls and let a faucet drip.

Do not keep resetting the breaker

A breaker that trips repeatedly is doing its job. Resetting it over and over puts the whole circuit through the fault again each time.

Coverage

What we can fix after hours, and what has to wait

Being honest about this up front saves everybody a wasted trip.

Fixed on the spot, usually

Capacitors, contactors, igniters, flame sensors, thermostats, blown fuses, clogged condensate drains, blower motor issues. Common failure parts ride on the truck.

Depends on the part

Control boards, inducer motors and some brand specific components. We'll get you running temporarily where it's safe to do so, then finish once suppliers open.

Can't be done at 2am

Compressor replacement, full system swaps and major refrigerant work. We'll make the house as safe and comfortable as possible, then schedule the real fix.

Brenton answered the phone when I called and came and diagnosed the problem the same day. He was not the original installer but still worked with the supplier to get the part covered saving us over a thousand dollars. His communication and professionalism are outstanding.
