Heating and air conditioning service built around Memphis
Humid summers statewide, with noticeably colder winters at higher elevations in the east. Across the 38116 area that translates into a steady stream of failed capacitors, clogged filters, dying blower motors and refrigerant leaks — most of which we can diagnose and repair in one visit.
Homes in Shelby County tend to be a mix of older builds with original ductwork and newer infill construction, which means airflow problems show up very differently from one street to the next.
If your system is over ten years old and you have had two repairs in the last two seasons, a replacement comparison is usually worth running even if the current unit still runs.

Memphis38116 HVAC questions, answered
Do you offer maintenance plans?
We do. A two-visit plan in Tennessee covers a spring cooling inspection and an autumn heating inspection, priority scheduling during peak weeks, discounted repairs and no diagnostic fee. Members rarely end up on the emergency list.
How often should I change my filter in 38116?
Monthly inspection and replacement every 60 to 90 days is the baseline. Homes in Memphis with pets, ongoing construction nearby, or a high-MERV filter in an undersized return should move to monthly changes. A loaded filter is the single most common cause of frozen coils and failed blower motors.
Do you charge extra for nights, weekends or holidays?
No. Our pricing in Tennessee is the same at 2am on a holiday as it is at 2pm on a Tuesday. Emergency calls are dispatched the same way as scheduled calls and carry no overtime premium.
What brands do you service in Memphis?
All of them. Our 38116 technicians are trained on Bryant, American Standard, Lennox, Trane and essentially every other residential brand sold in Tennessee, including discontinued lines. We keep a broad parts catalogue on the trucks for exactly that reason.
Why is my system short cycling?
Short cycling in Memphis most often comes from a restricted airflow path — a loaded filter, a closed register, an undersized return — or from an oversized unit. It can also be a failing flame sensor or a pressure switch fault. We measure static pressure and temperature rise before concluding anything, because guessing at this one is expensive.
Can you give me a price over the phone?
We can give you realistic ranges — and this page lists the ones homeowners in Memphis see most often — but a firm price needs eyes on the equipment. Any company that quotes a final number without seeing the unit is usually quoting low to get through the door.
