Heating and air conditioning service built around Montgomery
Whether the complaint is weak airflow upstairs, a furnace that will not stay lit, or an outdoor unit that hums but never starts, the process is the same — a proper diagnostic, a written price, then the repair.
Homes in Montgomery 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.
The busiest week of our year in Montgomery is the first stretch of sustained may weather. Systems that idled all season fail in clusters.

Montgomery36120 HVAC questions, answered
What brands do you service in Montgomery?
All of them. Our 36120 technicians are trained on Bryant, Amana, Heil, Goodman and essentially every other residential brand sold in Alabama, including discontinued lines. We keep a broad parts catalogue on the trucks for exactly that reason.
Do you service commercial and light commercial properties?
Yes. Around Montgomery we handle rooftop packaged units, split systems, VRF/VRV installations and building automation faults for offices, retail, restaurants and multi-tenant buildings, including after-hours scheduling so you are not disrupting trade.
Do you handle ductless mini-split systems?
Yes. Ductless installations have grown quickly in Alabama, particularly in older homes without existing ductwork. We service indoor heads, clean filters and drain lines, check line-set insulation and diagnose communication faults between heads and the outdoor unit.
How much does an HVAC service call cost in 36120?
A diagnostic visit in Montgomery typically runs $75 to $150, and that fee is usually applied toward the repair if you approve the work. Repair prices are quoted as a flat rate before we start, so the number you approve is the number you pay regardless of how long the job takes.
Is my system low on refrigerant, or is it leaking?
Refrigerant does not get "used up" the way fuel does. If your charge is low, there is a leak somewhere — usually at a flare connection, a schrader core or the evaporator coil. We locate and repair the leak rather than simply topping up the charge, because a top-up alone will fail again.
Do you charge extra for nights, weekends or holidays?
No. Our pricing in Alabama 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.
