Your house stays comfortable year-round without the stress of wondering if your system will quit when you need it most. No more waking up to a freezing house in January or sweating through July nights because your AC decided to blow hot air.

That’s what reliable heating and cooling service looks like. Not perfect systems that never need maintenance, but systems that get the care they need to keep running efficiently for years.

HVAC Repair Process Norwood

Here's How We Handle Your Call

When your HVAC system stops working, you call us and we’ll get someone to your house the same day for emergencies. Our technician shows up with the tools and parts needed for most common repairs, so there’s a good chance we can fix it on the first visit.

We start by diagnosing what’s actually wrong, not just treating symptoms. You’ll know what the problem is, what it takes to fix it, and what it costs before any work begins. No surprises, no pressure to buy things you don’t need.

After the repair, we test everything to make sure it’s working properly and explain what we did. If you’re part of our Dempsey Comfort Club, we’ll schedule your next maintenance visit before we leave. For everyone else, we’ll follow up to make sure everything’s still running smoothly.

Everything Your HVAC System Needs

We handle the full range of heating and cooling work. Emergency repairs when your system quits, routine maintenance to prevent problems, and complete installations when it’s time for a new system. Whether your HVAC system is blowing hot air when it should be cooling or your heating system won’t turn on during a cold snap, we’ve seen it before.

Massachusetts weather is hard on HVAC systems. The temperature swings from below zero to over 90 degrees put stress on components that leads to specific failure patterns. We know which parts typically fail first on different system types and keep those parts in stock.

Our service area covers Norwood and surrounding Norfolk County communities. We’re familiar with the local building codes, the HVAC brands that work best in this climate, and the common issues that come up in homes of different ages throughout the area.

Usually it’s a refrigerant leak, a bad compressor, or electrical issues with the outdoor unit. Sometimes it’s as simple as a tripped breaker or dirty air filter restricting airflow. The outdoor unit might be running but not actually cooling the refrigerant if the compressor is failing. We start by checking the obvious stuff like filters and electrical connections, then move to refrigerant levels and compressor function. Most of these problems can be diagnosed quickly, but refrigerant leaks need to be found and sealed before just adding more refrigerant, or you’ll have the same problem again in a few months.
Check your thermostat batteries first, then make sure the thermostat is set to heat and the temperature is set higher than the current room temperature. Look at your circuit breaker to see if anything’s tripped. If you have a gas furnace, make sure the gas valve is open and the pilot light is lit if it’s an older system. Don’t mess with gas connections or electrical panels beyond checking breakers. If those basic checks don’t solve it, you need a technician to look at the ignition system, gas valve, or blower motor. Heating systems have safety shutoffs that prevent operation when something’s wrong, so forcing it to run isn’t safe.
Twice a year works best for most systems – once before heating season and once before cooling season. Spring and fall maintenance catches small problems before they become expensive repairs during peak usage times. We check refrigerant levels, clean coils, test electrical connections, and replace filters. The maintenance also includes checking safety controls and cleaning components that affect efficiency. Systems that get regular maintenance last longer and use less energy. If you skip maintenance for several years, you’ll usually end up with higher repair costs and shorter equipment life. Our Dempsey Comfort Club spreads the maintenance cost over the year and gives you priority scheduling.
Age and repair frequency are the main factors. If your system is over 15 years old and needs repairs that cost more than half what a new system would cost, replacement usually makes more sense. Systems that break down repeatedly or can’t maintain comfortable temperatures even after repairs are telling you they’re done. Rising energy bills often indicate declining efficiency that won’t improve with repairs. We’ll give you honest advice about whether a repair will actually solve your problem or if you’re just delaying the inevitable. Sometimes a $300 repair buys you several more years, other times it’s throwing money at a system that’s going to fail again next month.
Same-day service when your heating or cooling completely fails, usually within a few hours of your call depending on the time and weather conditions. We bring common replacement parts and tools needed for most emergency repairs. The service call includes diagnosis, explanation of what’s wrong, and upfront pricing before any work starts. If we can’t fix it the same day, we’ll do whatever’s possible to restore some heating or cooling until we can get the right parts. Emergency service costs more than scheduled maintenance, but you’re paying for immediate response and after-hours availability. We don’t charge extra just to show up – the emergency fee covers the service call and diagnosis.
Yes, we work on all major HVAC brands including older systems that other contractors won’t touch. Some brands are easier to get parts for than others, and we’ll let you know if your system uses parts that are getting hard to find. We keep common parts in stock for the most popular brands in this area, which means faster repairs for most service calls. If your system is very old or uses proprietary parts, we’ll research availability and cost before recommending repairs versus replacement. We’re not tied to any particular manufacturer, so our recommendations are based on what works best for your situation and budget, not what we get the best dealer pricing on.
