When a furnace stops working on a cold night or an AC unit gives out in the middle of summer, the first call should reach someone who can scope the problem and get a visit scheduled. We handle heating and cooling work for homes and properties across Clarkson, from a single-family house whose furnace has been running on borrowed time to a rental property where a tenant has lost heat. Whatever the system and whatever the season, the process starts with a phone call and a clear picture of what the job involves before anything is booked.
Clarkson is a town where most homes run forced-air heating, and a lot of that equipment has been doing its job for a long time. Older systems that have never had a tune-up, additions that the original ductwork never properly served, and thermostats that have not kept pace with the equipment they control are all common starting points. We work on all of it.
Call (585) 564-9789 to get started, and reach us every day from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM.
The price for a heating or cooling job depends on what the system actually needs, and that is not always clear until someone has looked at it. What moves a quote is the nature of the fault, how much of the system has to be accessed to reach it, and whether the right answer is a repair or a replacement. A refrigerant leak that has been running for a season is a different job from a failed igniter. A blower motor that has seized is a different conversation from one that is simply dirty.
When you call, the person who answers can take you through what the visit covers and confirm the rate before anything is scheduled. That rate is tied to the scope of the call, so if the scope changes on site, that conversation happens before the work proceeds. You are not committed to anything until you know what it costs and what it covers. Ask what the quote includes and you get a straight answer.
A thermostat that cannot communicate with modern equipment is not just an inconvenience. It limits what the system can do. An older mechanical or basic programmable thermostat reads the space imprecisely, calls for heat or cooling at the wrong times, and gives the homeowner no visibility into what the system is actually doing.
A smart thermostat or a modern communicating control changes that. It learns how the home holds temperature, adjusts the schedule around how the space is actually used, and flags when the equipment is not responding the way it should. In a home with a cold-climate heat pump or a variable-speed air handler, the thermostat is not a peripheral accessory. It is part of how the system is managed.
Replacing a thermostat on its own is sometimes the right call before touching the equipment at all. If the system is running erratically or failing to reach setpoint, the control is the first thing worth checking. We install programmable thermostats, smart thermostats, and zoning controls, and every installation ends with the thermostat confirmed as communicating with the system before the visit is complete. The full breakdown is on our list of HVAC services.
An HVAC emergency in a Clarkson home does not wait for a weekday appointment slot. We take no-heat and no-cool calls every day from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM, and the job gets scoped on the phone before anyone arrives so the visit is prepared. We do not promise a specific arrival window, but we take short-notice work seriously and ask what is open on the schedule when you call.
For rental properties, the situation is different in one important way: a tenant without heat or cooling is a problem the landlord needs handled quickly, and we work with property owners to get the visit scheduled without requiring the owner to be on site. The scope and the rate are confirmed on the call, and the work proceeds once the repair is authorized.
For businesses and commercial properties that have to stay operational, we handle the scheduling conversation on the phone so the visit can be timed around what the space needs. A rooftop unit serving a commercial building, a multi-zone system in a mixed-use property, or a heat pump across several units all fall within the scope of what we service.
A system that runs all winter without a fall tune-up is carrying whatever it accumulated over the previous season into the coldest months. A furnace tune-up covers the heat exchanger, ignition system, burner operation, blower motor, and filter condition. An AC tune-up in spring covers the evaporator and condenser coils, refrigerant charge, electrical connections, and airflow. Catching a worn igniter or a fouled coil before the season opens is less disruptive and less expensive than the same problem discovered on the coldest night of the year.
An AC that will not turn on at all is a different problem from one that runs but does not cool. A no-start condition points toward the controls, the electrical connections at the unit, the capacitor, or the contactor before the compressor is even considered. Diagnosing the right component is what keeps the repair from going further than it needs to. We check the full startup sequence before quoting any part.
Forced-air heating systems move air through every room in the house, and what circulates through the system circulates through every room. In a home that is sealed tight through a long heating season, the quality of that air matters. Whole-home air filtration, HEPA-grade filter upgrades, UV air scrubbers, and whole-home humidifiers all work within the existing system to address what portable units in individual rooms cannot. A whole-home humidifier is a natural addition in this region, where forced-air heat pulls moisture out of indoor air from November through March and the effects show up as dry skin, static, and wood that cracks.
A cracked heat exchanger is not a repair. It is a replacement conversation. The heat exchanger separates the combustion gases from the air the system moves through the home, and a crack in it is a safety concern that changes the entire calculus on whether continued repair makes sense. A heat exchanger inspection is part of every furnace tune-up we perform, and if a concern is found, we walk through what it means and what the options are before any work is authorized.
A central forced-air system heats and cools based on a single thermostat reading. That works well for the rooms closest to the air handler and less well for rooms at the end of a long duct run, above a garage, or in a finished basement that was never part of the original design. The temperature in those spaces is whatever the main system allows, not what the room actually needs.
A ductless mini-split handles one zone independently. It heats and cools that space on its own schedule without drawing on the central system, which means the garage workshop can be comfortable without overheating the rest of the house, and the finished room above it can hold a different temperature from the floor below. Cold-climate mini-splits are rated to operate well below freezing, which makes them a practical heating option in this region for spaces that have no duct connection and no other good answer. Installation does not require opening walls for ductwork, and the refrigerant line set is the primary connection between the indoor and outdoor units.
We handle heating and cooling work throughout Clarkson and the surrounding area. Along with Clarkson, we serve nearby communities across Monroe County, including Brockport, Hamlin, Holley, Parma, and Spencerport. Whether the property is in the town itself or in one of the surrounding communities, the process is the same: call to confirm we cover your address, get the job scoped on the phone, and schedule the visit from there.
A cold-climate heat pump can be added to an existing forced-air system as a dual-fuel setup, where the heat pump handles heating across most of the season and the furnace covers the deepest cold snaps. It can also replace a furnace entirely in some situations, depending on the home's insulation, duct condition, and heating load. The right answer depends on the specifics of the property, and that conversation starts on the phone with a description of what the current system is and what the space requires.
Gas and propane forced-air furnaces are the dominant heating system in this part of Monroe County, and they make up the majority of the calls we handle. We also work on heat pumps, boilers, and hydronic heating systems, as well as the air handlers, ductwork, and controls that tie those systems together. If you are not sure what type of system you have, describing what you see and how the heat is delivered is enough to get started on the phone.
Yes. We work with landlords and property owners who need a heating or cooling issue handled at a property where a tenant is present. The scope and the rate are confirmed with the property owner on the call, and the visit can be arranged without requiring the owner to be on site. If you manage more than one property in the area, we can handle scheduling across all of them through the same number.
A system that has stopped producing heat or cooling entirely, leaving the space at an uncomfortable or unsafe temperature, is a situation we treat as urgent. We take those calls every day from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM and get the job scoped on the phone so the visit is prepared before it starts.
You do not need to know what is wrong before you call. Describing what the system is doing, or not doing, is enough to get the job scoped on the phone and a visit scheduled. A furnace that is cycling oddly in October is a tune-up conversation. The same furnace that stops entirely in January is an emergency. The difference in timing is the difference between a scheduled appointment and a no-heat call.

| System Service | What It Covers | Best For | Helpful Details |
|---|---|---|---|
| HVAC System Installation & ReplacementMost Popular |
| Homeowners and property managers replacing aging or failed equipment, or upgrading to a more efficient system | The quote covers what the visit includes and what the installation involves so you know what to expect before work begins. |
| Emergency HVAC Service |
| Any property where the system is down and the space is not holding temperature | We take emergency calls every day from 6:30 AM to 10:00 PM. The system is diagnosed before parts are quoted so the repair is based on what is actually wrong. |
| Whole-Home Humidifier Installation |
| Households dealing with dry air through the long Monroe County heating season, typically noticeable from December through March | A whole-home humidifier maintains consistent humidity across every room automatically. A portable unit in one room cannot do that, and a properly humidified house often feels warmer at a lower thermostat setting. |
