If your heat stopped working in Rochester in January, or your AC quit in July, you need a diagnosis fast. This page covers the most common causes of no-heat and no-cool situations, what to check before calling, and when to stop troubleshooting and pick up the phone.

We provide 24/7 service for true heat and cool emergencies.
Rochester winters are not forgiving. When the heat goes out at 10pm in February with temperatures at 5 degrees outside, you are not waiting until morning. Here are the most common reasons a furnace or boiler stops heating in a Rochester home:

Call 585 454 8422. 24/7 emergency service for true heat and cool emergencies. Justin or Colby answers the phone.
Call immediately without troubleshooting: If you smell gas, evacuate and call National Grid (1-800-892-2345) or NYSEG (1-800-572-1111) before calling us. If CO detectors are alarming, evacuate and call 911. If there is water leaking from your boiler. If you see smoke or burning smell from the unit.
Safe to check first: Thermostat set correctly and batteries fresh. Circuit breaker for the furnace, AC, or air handler not tripped. Filter not completely plugged. Condensate drain line not blocked (causing a safety shutoff on high-efficiency furnaces). Emergency shutoff switch near the unit not accidentally switched off.
If those quick checks do not resolve it, call 585 454 8422. We diagnose the system, tell you what caused the failure in plain language, and give you the repair cost before any work begins.
