Heating and air conditioning service built around Seattle
If your heat pumps and ductless mini-splits has started short cycling, blowing warm air or making a noise it never used to make, you are not alone — Seattle generates some of the highest call volume we handle in Washington. Mild wet winters and increasingly hot dry summers, with heat pumps and ductless systems leading new installs.
A large share of the equipment we service in Seattle 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 Washington: one before July and August and one before November through March. It is the single highest-return thing a homeowner can do for equipment life.

Seattle98109 HVAC questions, answered
Can you give me a price over the phone?
We can give you realistic ranges — and this page lists the ones homeowners in Seattle 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.
Do you offer maintenance plans?
We do. A two-visit plan in Washington 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.
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Every technician dispatched into Seattle is licensed, insured and background-checked. We can provide proof of insurance on request before the visit if you would like it on file.
Do you service commercial and light commercial properties?
Yes. Around Seattle 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.
How quickly can a technician get to Seattle?
For the 98109 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.
Why is my system short cycling?
Short cycling in Seattle 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.
