Loud banging on start-up (compressor slugging)

Heat pump stuck blowing cold air in heating mode
Squealing or grinding from the blower assembly

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.
Because Washington runs heat pumps and ductless mini-splits, the transition between seasons is when we see the most emergency calls — equipment that sat unused for months.

Seattle98158 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.
What brands do you service in Seattle?
All of them. Our 98158 technicians are trained on Rheem, Carrier, York, Amana and essentially every other residential brand sold in Washington, including discontinued lines. We keep a broad parts catalogue on the trucks for exactly that reason.
Do you handle ductless mini-split systems?
Yes. Ductless installations have grown quickly in Washington, 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 98158?
A diagnostic visit in Seattle 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.
How often should I change my filter in 98158?
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.
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.
