The Yakima98908 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.

Heating and air conditioning service built around Yakima
Mild wet winters and increasingly hot dry summers, with heat pumps and ductless systems leading new installs. Across the 98908 area that translates into a steady stream of failed capacitors, clogged filters, dying blower motors and refrigerant leaks — most of which we can diagnose and repair in one visit.
Because Washington swings between seasons quickly, a lot of our Yakima calls come in the first hot or cold snap of the year — systems that sat idle for months and then get asked to run flat out.
The busiest week of our year in Yakima is the first stretch of sustained july weather. Systems that idled all season fail in clusters.

— Angela W., verified Yakima customer
“They found a cracked heat exchanger that our previous company missed for two years. That alone was worth the call.”
— Sandra B., verified Yakima customer
Yakima98908 HVAC questions, answered
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 Yakima, and we recommend a working CO alarm on every level of the home regardless of who services your equipment.
Should I repair my system or replace it?
The usual rule of thumb: if the repair costs more than half the price of a replacement and the equipment is over ten years old, replacement generally wins. We will run that comparison with you on site and show you the maths — and if the honest answer is a $180 capacitor rather than a $9,000 system, that is the answer you get.
Do you service commercial and light commercial properties?
Yes. Around Yakima 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.
Why is my system short cycling?
Short cycling in Yakima 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.
How much does an HVAC service call cost in 98908?
A diagnostic visit in Yakima 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.
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.
