If your system is doing any of the following, it is worth a diagnostic before the fault gets more expensive.

Heat pump stuck blowing cold air in heating mode
Refrigerant leak at a flare or coil connection
Heating and air conditioning service built around Seattle
Mild wet winters and increasingly hot dry summers, with heat pumps and ductless systems leading new installs. Our Seattle teams are set up for exactly that: rapid response, flat-rate pricing quoted before work begins, and no surprise overtime charge for nights or weekends.
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.

Seattle98154 HVAC questions, answered
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.
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.
What does a new system cost in Seattle?
A complete residential replacement in the 98154 area generally lands between $6,000 and $13,000 installed, depending on capacity, efficiency rating and how much ductwork has to be modified. We always perform a Manual J load calculation first, because an oversized unit costs more to buy and runs worse than a correctly sized one.
How often should I change my filter in 98154?
Monthly inspection and replacement every 60 to 90 days is the baseline. Homes in Seattle 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.
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 Seattle, and we recommend a working CO alarm on every level of the home regardless of who services your equipment.
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.
