The New Orleans70123 calls we answer most often
If your system is doing any of the following, it is worth a diagnostic before the fault gets more expensive.
Water pooling around the indoor unit or ceiling stains
One or two rooms that never reach the set temperature
Thermostat reading several degrees off from reality
Heat pump stuck blowing cold air in heating mode
Furnace lights then shuts down after a few seconds
Loud banging on start-up (compressor slugging)
Heating and air conditioning service built around New Orleans
Most of the work we do in New Orleans starts the same way: the system is running but the house is not comfortable. Before we replace anything, we measure airflow, static pressure and temperatures so you are paying for the actual fault.
A large share of the equipment we service in New Orleans was installed by a builder to a minimum spec. That usually means an undersized return, a cheap filter rack and a condenser sitting close to a wall.
We recommend two maintenance visits a year in Louisiana: one before March through November and one before rarely required. It is the single highest-return thing a homeowner can do for equipment life.

New Orleans70123 HVAC questions, answered
Do you charge extra for nights, weekends or holidays?
No. Our pricing in Louisiana 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.
Why is my system short cycling?
Short cycling in New Orleans 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.
Do you service commercial and light commercial properties?
Yes. Around New Orleans 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.
Is my carbon monoxide risk something I should worry about?
With any combustion appliance, yes. A cracked heat exchanger can spill carbon monoxide into the living space, and it is odourless. We perform combustion analysis and a CO test on every furnace and boiler call in New Orleans, and we recommend a working CO alarm on every level of the home regardless of who services your equipment.
How quickly can a technician get to New Orleans?
For the 70123 service area our target response time is 60-90 minutes from the moment dispatch confirms your address. Real-world timing depends on the day — the first sustained heat or cold snap of the season is always our busiest period — but we hold technicians locally specifically so that window is achievable rather than aspirational.
What causes water to leak from the indoor unit?
Almost always a blocked condensate drain line, a failed drain pan float switch, or a frozen coil melting faster than the pan can handle. In New Orleans we see algae and dust clogging drain lines constantly during March through November. It is a fast fix but ignoring it ends in ceiling damage.
