A heating failure is one of the few home problems where the clock genuinely matters. A house without heat in a West Tennessee cold snap grows uncomfortable within hours and, if the temperature keeps dropping, can put pipes at risk of freezing. That is why our emergency service runs 24/7/365, nights, weekends, and holidays included, so you are never left waiting until business hours to get warm again.

When you call, we get a technician moving toward your home, and you can track their arrival so you know exactly when help will reach your door. No emergency surcharge sprung on you afterward, no mystery bill. Just heat, restored quickly, by a team that answers when West Tennessee families need it most.

There is a reason heating systems so often quit during the first hard freeze: that is when they work hardest. A system that limped through fall with a worn part or a developing fault gets pushed to its limit when the temperature drops, and that extra strain is what finally causes the failure.

The most common culprits we see on emergency calls include ignition or flame-sensor problems that keep a furnace from firing, a blower that runs while the burners stay cold, thermostat faults sending the wrong signal, and, on a heat pump, a frozen outdoor unit or a defrost problem leaving the system unable to keep up.

Sometimes an emergency call reveals that a heating system has reached the end of the road, and no repair will reliably bring it back. When that happens, you should not have to choose between a cold house and a rushed decision, which is why flexible financing through GreenSky is available on a new system. It spreads the cost of a new system into manageable payments, so you can move forward with a replacement right away rather than patching a system that will only fail again.

Combined with our upfront pricing, financing keeps even an unexpected replacement clear and manageable. We lay out your options and the full cost before any work begins, so if the honest answer is a new system, you can make that call with confidence instead of pressure.

My furnace is blowing air but it is cold. What is wrong?

That usually means the blower is running while the burners are not firing, often from an ignition or flame-sensor problem, a gas supply issue, or a thermostat set to the wrong mode. 

My heat pump iced over and stopped heating. Is that an emergency?

A heat pump growing some frost in cold, damp weather is normal, and the defrost cycle should clear it. But a unit encased in ice and no longer heating points to a defrost failure or another fault, and in freezing weather that leaves you without heat, so it is worth a prompt call rather than waiting.

Should I keep resetting my furnace when it shuts off?

Repeatedly resetting a furnace that keeps shutting down is not advisable. The system has a safety control shutting it off for a reason, often overheating from restricted airflow or a flame-sensor issue, and forcing it to restart can worsen the problem or create a hazard. 

How cold does the house have to get before frozen pipes are a risk?

Pipes generally start to be at risk when indoor temperatures fall toward freezing, which can happen faster than expected in a well-below-freezing night with no heat. Pipes in exterior walls and unheated spaces are most vulnerable.

Why do heating systems so often fail at night or on weekends?

Partly timing and partly load. Systems run hardest when it is coldest, which is often overnight, so a marginal part tends to give out then. It can also just feel that way because that is when you notice the house getting cold.
