We handle the full range of residential and commercial HVAC work: repairs, new installations, system replacements, and ongoing maintenance. When you call, a real local person picks up and we get a technician dispatched to you fast. Call (971) 459-8956 for a quote or to schedule service.
From aging systems to brand-new installs, we cover everything a home or commercial property needs to stay comfortable year-round. That means AC repair, heating and furnace repair, heat pump service, full system installation and replacement, ductwork repair and sealing, thermostat and smart control setup, indoor air quality improvements, and seasonal maintenance. Whether you manage a single-family home, a rental portfolio, or a commercial building, we bring the same responsive service and straight-up pricing to every job. Same-day availability means you are not waiting days to find out what is wrong. Call and we will handle the furnace, the AC, and the ductwork.
When the heat or the AC quits, the last thing you want is a long wait or a vague answer about cost. We diagnose and repair the full range of AC problems: a unit that stopped cooling, one that is blowing warm air, a system that will not turn on, refrigerant leaks, condenser and compressor issues, evaporator coil buildup, and airflow problems that leave certain rooms warmer than others. Work is performed by qualified HVAC technicians who respect your home and treat the job with care. Same-day and emergency AC repair are available when you need them most. Call (971) 459-8956 for an estimate and we will get it diagnosed today.
Whether it is a furnace that stopped heating, one blowing cold air, or a system that will not fire up at all, we get to the root of the problem fast. Not every furnace issue requires a full replacement, and we will give you a straight answer about whether a repair makes sense or whether the age and condition of the equipment point toward a new install. When replacement is the right call, we handle the full installation. Gas furnace service is a regular part of what we do across the area, and same-day and emergency furnace repair are available when the heat goes out. Reach out and we will start at the unit.
Heat pumps are a practical, efficient choice for Pacific Northwest homes, and we service and install them every day. Whether your heat pump is not heating, not cooling, running constantly, or has shut down entirely, we diagnose the problem and get it working. Routine heat pump maintenance helps catch small issues before they become expensive ones. We also handle full heat pump installation and replacement, including ductless mini-split systems for homes adding cooling or heating to specific rooms or additions. We keep you informed from diagnosis to final test, so you always know where things stand. Reach out and we will get it diagnosed today.
Whether it is a complete system replacement, a new central air installation, or a full HVAC build-out for a residential or commercial property, we manage the job from equipment selection through final startup. Qualified HVAC technicians handle every installation, and we treat the home or building with care throughout the process. Replacing an older system is often the most cost-effective move once repair costs start stacking up, and we will walk you through the options honestly. We make the repair and leave the home tidy. Call (971) 459-8956 for a system installation or replacement quote.
A thermostat that is not reading correctly, not communicating with the system, or simply outdated can cost you in comfort and energy use. We install and replace thermostats of all types, including programmable and smart thermostat setups that let you manage your home's temperature from your phone. Call to schedule an installation or replacement.
Leaking or poorly sealed ductwork is one of the most common reasons a home heats or cools unevenly. We inspect, repair, seal, and replace ductwork to restore proper airflow and make sure conditioned air is actually reaching the rooms it should. If certain areas of your home feel consistently too warm or too cold, the ducts are often where we start. Call for an estimate.
Whole-home air purifiers, air scrubbers, and upgraded HVAC filtration can make a real difference in the air your family breathes every day. We assess the current filtration setup and recommend upgrades that match your system and your needs. For homeowners concerned about wildfire smoke, this is especially relevant, and we cover that in more detail in the regional section below.
Whether it is a spring AC tune-up before the warm months or a fall furnace check before the cold sets in, preventive maintenance is the best way to extend equipment life and avoid mid-season breakdowns. We take pride in the HVAC work we leave behind, and that starts with a thorough inspection that catches small problems before they become big ones. Annual maintenance also helps keep energy costs in check. We serve both residential and commercial clients for scheduled HVAC maintenance, including multi-unit and office properties. Call (971) 459-8956 for a maintenance appointment or seasonal inspection estimate.
When the heat goes out in January or the AC fails on the hottest day of the summer, you need someone who can actually show up. We dispatch quickly for residential and commercial emergency calls, seven days a week. We answer the phone. We dispatch the technician. We keep it simple.
No heat, no cool, system completely down. We handle it. Reach out and we will get it diagnosed today.
Lake Oswego sits in the northern Willamette Valley, where winters are mild and wet and summers are increasingly hot and dry. For years, most homes here were built without central air conditioning, because the marine climate rarely demanded it. That has changed. Record heat events have pushed cooling from a nice-to-have to a genuine necessity, and wildfire smoke from late-summer fire seasons has made indoor air quality a real concern across the region. Heat pump electrification is also gaining momentum here, driven by both utility incentives and a practical interest in year-round efficiency. Reach out and we will start at the unit.
Many homes in Lake Oswego and the surrounding area were never built with central air. If yours is one of them, a ductless mini-split system is often the cleanest solution: no ductwork required, room-by-room control, and installation that does not require tearing into walls or ceilings. For homes with existing ductwork, central AC installation is a straightforward addition. We walk you through both options and help you choose what fits your home and budget. Call (971) 459-8956 for a cooling installation estimate.
Summer wildfire smoke has become a recurring reality across the Pacific Northwest, and standard HVAC filters are not built to handle it. We upgrade filtration systems to MERV-13 and higher, install air scrubbers, and set up whole-home air purification systems that meaningfully reduce smoke particulates and other airborne contaminants during smoke events. If your home feels hazy or smells of smoke indoors during fire season, a filtration upgrade is one of the most practical steps you can take. Call to schedule an air quality assessment.
Replacing an aging gas furnace or electric-resistance heating system with a modern air-source heat pump gives you efficient heating and cooling from a single unit. Heat pumps perform well in the mild Pacific Northwest climate, and ductless heat pump systems are a strong option for homes without existing duct infrastructure. We handle the full installation, from equipment selection through commissioning. Call (971) 459-8956 for a heat pump installation estimate.
Not every HVAC company works the same way, and we built ours to handle both residential and commercial work without cutting corners on either. Homeowners get the same level of care as a property manager overseeing a multi-unit building or an office manager dealing with a failed rooftop unit. Same responsive service, same honest pricing, same qualified technicians on the job. Call and we will handle the furnace, the AC, and the ductwork.
We answer our own phones and drive our own trucks. When you call, you reach someone who knows this area and can actually schedule your service. We have been doing this work in and around Lake Oswego since 2004, and the relationships we have built here matter to us. Experienced technicians who respect your home show up to every job, and we keep you informed from diagnosis to final test so there are no surprises when the work is done. We take pride in the HVAC work we leave behind, and that standard applies whether we are doing a quick repair or a full system replacement. Reach out and we will get it diagnosed today.

Call (971) 459-8956 and we will talk through what you are dealing with. For repairs, a technician visits the property, diagnoses the system, and gives you a clear estimate before any work begins. For installations and replacements, we assess the home or building and provide a quote based on what the job actually involves.
The technician runs a thorough diagnosis of the system, explains what they find in plain language, and gives you a cost estimate before starting any work. We keep you informed from the initial assessment through the final test so there are no surprises about what the repair involves or what it will cost.
It helps to know the general type of equipment you have (furnace, heat pump, central AC, or mini-split), the approximate age of the system if you know it, and a brief description of the problem. If you have a recent service history or equipment model number handy, that is useful too, but we can work with whatever information you have available.
Yes, we handle both. On the residential side, we work with homeowners, landlords, and property managers. On the commercial side, we service offices, retail spaces, and small commercial buildings. The same qualified technicians and the same standard of work apply to every job regardless of property type.
Yes, a system that is completely unresponsive is one of the more common calls we receive. The cause could be a failed control board, a tripped safety switch, a thermostat issue, or a number of other faults. We diagnose the problem from the unit up and explain exactly what we find before recommending a repair path.
HVAC repair costs vary depending on the system type, the age of the equipment, and what the technician finds during diagnosis. We do not quote numbers before seeing the system because a number without that context is not reliable. The technician assesses the equipment, explains the findings, and gives you a clear cost before any work begins.
Payment is due when the work is complete. We do not ask for payment before the technician arrives or before the job is finished. If the scope of the work changes during the job, we communicate that with you before proceeding so there are no unexpected charges on the final invoice.
Call (971) 459-8956 and we will work with you to find a new time. We understand schedules change, and rescheduling is straightforward. The sooner you let us know, the easier it is to slot another appointment into a convenient window for you.

How do I know whether to repair or replace my HVAC system?
A good rule of thumb is to weigh the repair cost against the age and condition of the equipment. If the system is more than 15 years old and the repair runs to several hundred dollars, replacement often makes more financial sense over the next few years. We give you a straight assessment after diagnosing the system so you can make an informed decision without pressure.
What are the signs that my AC or furnace may need to be replaced soon?
Frequent repairs, rising energy bills with no change in usage, uneven temperatures across the home, and a system that struggles to reach the set temperature are all signals worth paying attention to. Age matters too. Most central AC systems last 12 to 15 years, and furnaces often run 15 to 20 years before efficiency drops sharply. We assess the equipment and tell you honestly where it stands.
Why would my system stop heating or cooling even when it turns on?
A system that runs but does not condition the air can point to a refrigerant issue, a dirty or frozen evaporator coil, a failing compressor, a clogged filter restricting airflow, or a control fault that keeps the blower running without the heating or cooling stage engaging. Diagnosis from the unit is the only reliable way to find the actual cause, and we walk you through what we find before recommending a repair.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
When the heat goes out in January or the AC fails in the middle of a heat event, we dispatch quickly, seven days a week. Call (971) 459-8956 and we get a technician moving toward you.
What does a seasonal tune-up actually cover?
A thorough tune-up includes inspecting and cleaning the coils, checking refrigerant levels, testing electrical connections and safety controls, lubricating moving parts, checking the heat exchanger or heat pump components, replacing or inspecting the filter, and running the system through a full cycle to confirm it is operating correctly. The goal is to catch small problems before they turn into mid-season failures.
How do I know if my home has a ductwork problem?
Rooms that are consistently warmer or cooler than the rest of the house, higher-than-expected energy bills, and visible dust buildup near vents are common signs. Leaky ducts let conditioned air escape into attics, crawl spaces, or wall cavities before it reaches the living space. We inspect the duct system and seal or repair what we find.
Is someone from our household required to be home during the service call?
An adult needs to be present and able to provide access to the equipment. For most repairs and installations, the technician works on the HVAC equipment directly, so access to the unit, the thermostat, and any mechanical spaces is what matters. If you have a specific scheduling situation, mention it when you call and we will work with you.
Transparent Upfront Pricing
We diagnose the system, explain what we find in plain language, and give you a clear cost before any work begins. No surprises on the final invoice.
What causes a system to short-cycle, turning on and off repeatedly?
Short-cycling is often caused by an oversized system, a refrigerant charge that is off, a dirty filter restricting airflow, an overheating heat exchanger, or a control fault. It puts extra wear on the compressor and blower motor and reduces comfort. We diagnose the root cause rather than just resetting the system.
Why is one room in my home always hotter or colder than the rest?
Uneven temperatures usually point to a ductwork issue, an undersized or oversized system, poor insulation in that part of the home, or a damper that is not operating correctly. In some cases, a ductless mini-split added to that room is the most practical fix. We start with the duct system and the equipment before recommending a solution.
Clean and Respectful Workmanship
Qualified HVAC technicians handle every job, and we treat the home or building with care throughout. We make the repair and leave the space tidy.
What does a heat pump electrification project involve?
We assess your current heating setup, help you choose an appropriately sized air-source heat pump, and handle the full installation from equipment selection through commissioning. For homes without existing ductwork, a ductless heat pump system is often the right path. The result is a single unit that handles both heating and cooling efficiently year-round.
How does wildfire-smoke filtration work, and is it worth it in Lake Oswego?
Standard HVAC filters, typically rated MERV-8 or lower, are not designed to capture the fine particles in wildfire smoke. Upgrading to MERV-13 filtration, adding an air scrubber, or installing a whole-home air purifier significantly reduces smoke particulates indoors during fire season. Given the recurring late-summer smoke events across the Pacific Northwest, this is a practical upgrade for most households in this area.
How long does a full HVAC system replacement typically take?
Most residential system replacements are completed in a single day. A straightforward furnace or AC swap on an existing system with intact ductwork usually runs four to eight hours. More involved projects, such as adding ductwork or installing a first-time cooling system, may take longer. We give you a realistic timeline when we provide the installation estimate.
Every home and system is a little different, so call (971) 459-8956 and we will talk through what your situation actually needs.
