About NorthlinePlain answers.
Is a request the same as a confirmed appointment?
No. A request gives the dispatcher what they need to call you back. The appointment is confirmed when you agree on a day and a two-hour window.
Do you quote replacements over the phone?
Not honestly. A useful estimate depends on the house, the ductwork, the electrical panel and how you use the rooms, so it starts with a visit.
What should I check before calling about no heat?
Thermostat set to heat and powered, the furnace switch on, and a filter that isn't packed with dust. Don't open burner or electrical panels.
Which equipment do you work on?
Gas and oil furnaces, boilers, central air, ducted and ductless heat pumps, and the thermostats and ductwork that connect them.
Cold house tonight?
