Our 24/7 team answers live, diagnoses fast, and gets heat back on safely. Keep reading to learn what counts as an emergency, what to do first, and how we restore comfort with no service call and no dispatch fees.

Signs Your Furnace Problem Is an Emergency in Denver

Front Range weather swings fast. When temperatures dive, a furnace failure can become urgent in hours. Call for emergency help if you notice any of these issues:

  • No heat at all and indoor temps are falling below 60 degrees.
  • A strong odor of gas. Evacuate and call your gas utility or 911, then call us.
  • Smoke, sparks, or signs of burning at the furnace or breaker panel.
  • Loud or unusual noises like banging, screeching, or grinding.
  • Short cycling every few minutes or the system blowing cold air while set to heat.
  • Repeated tripping breakers or visible scorch marks.

These conditions can damage equipment or create safety hazards. Our technicians are trained to restore heat quickly and safely, and we never begin any work without your approval first.

What To Do Right Now If the Heat Stops

Take these steps before you call. They can prevent damage and may save a service visit:

  1. Check the thermostat.
    • Confirm Heat mode and target temperature is higher than room temp.
    • Replace batteries if the screen is blank.
  2. Verify power.
    • Ensure the furnace switch is on and the breaker is not tripped.
    • If the breaker trips again, stop and call for service.
  3. Inspect the air filter.
    • A clogged filter can overheat and shut down a furnace. Replace if dirty.
  4. Check the intake and exhaust.
    • Snow or ice can block high‑efficiency PVC vents on the north side of many Denver homes.
  5. For gas furnaces, confirm the gas valve is open.
  6. If you smell gas, hear arcing, or see smoke, switch the system off and call immediately.

If these checks do not restore heat, call 720-613-8880. We provide 24/7 live answering and can dispatch a licensed technician across Denver and nearby cities.

Prevention: Tune Ups and Our No‑Breakdown Guarantee

A professional tune up reduces emergency breakdowns during Denver’s cold snaps and keeps efficiency high. Our maintenance approach includes:

  • Combustion analysis and safety checks.
  • Heat exchanger inspection and airflow verification.
  • Electrical testing and amp draw measurements.
  • Thermostat calibration and cycle testing.
  • Filter, vent, and drain inspections.

Our No‑Breakdown Guarantee adds protection:

  • If your system breaks down within 6 months of service, we will come out at no cost to figure out the problem.
  • We will give you priority scheduling service.
  • We will credit the original maintenance charge toward the repair.
  • 100% satisfaction guaranteed.

Members receive scheduled tune ups, priority service, and reminders. Many emergencies are avoided with this proactive plan.

When Repair Is Not Smart: Replace vs Repair

Sometimes replacement is the better value. Consider a new furnace when:

  • Your unit is 15 to 20 years old and needs a major part like a heat exchanger or control board.
  • You face repeated emergency calls each season.
  • Repair costs exceed 30 to 40 percent of a new, efficient system.
  • You want lower bills, quieter operation, and stronger airflow.

We provide options for high‑efficiency furnaces and can pair with smart thermostats for better control. Financing is available to spread out the cost. We will always explain both paths and let you decide.
