Brookhaven and the communities around it, including Chamblee, North Druid Hills, North Decatur, Doraville, and Sandy Springs, are all covered under one number. Whether the call comes from a property manager overseeing a small commercial building or a homeowner whose furnace stopped working overnight, the process is the same: scope the job on the phone, confirm a price, and schedule the visit.
Call us at (470) 995-4495, available every day from 7:30 AM to 9:00 PM.
We handle the full range of heating and cooling work in Brookhaven and DeKalb County, from a single repair call to a full system replacement. Residential and commercial calls are both covered. If you need a second opinion on a replacement quote before committing to new equipment, that is a fair thing to ask for, and a service visit is a reasonable way to get one.
An older thermostat controls one thing: when the system turns on and when it turns off. A modern programmable or smart thermostat does more than that. It adjusts for occupancy patterns, holds different temperatures at different times of day, and gives you a clear picture of how long the system is running to reach the set point. In a home where the system runs longer than it should without reaching temperature, the thermostat is often the first thing worth checking before any equipment is blamed.
Replacing a thermostat is a straightforward visit. The work covers wiring compatibility with the existing equipment, configuration of the new control, and a walkthrough to confirm the system is responding correctly before the visit ends. For a home with a heat pump, thermostat compatibility matters more than it does with a straight furnace-and-AC setup, because the control has to manage the reversing valve and the auxiliary heat correctly. Getting that wrong at installation leads to a system that works but does not work well, and the symptom can look like an equipment fault rather than a control fault.
A sunroom, a finished basement, a garage conversion, or an addition built after the original ductwork was laid are all spaces that a central system was never designed to reach. Running new duct to them is sometimes possible and sometimes not, depending on what is in the walls and ceiling between the air handler and the space. A ductless mini-split handles those situations by conditioning the zone directly, without a duct run. The indoor head mounts on the wall or ceiling of the space, and the refrigerant line connects it to an outdoor unit. The installation footprint is small and the work does not require opening up finished walls to run duct.
A multi-zone ductless setup can also address comfort problems in a home where the central system heats and cools unevenly. If one part of the house is always too warm in summer or too cold in winter regardless of what the thermostat says, a ductless system in that zone handles the load independently. It runs when the zone needs it, not when the central system decides to cycle. For a small commercial space or a building where different areas have different occupancy schedules, that kind of zone control makes a real difference in both comfort and operating cost.
A furnace that will not fire, starts and then shuts off before the house reaches temperature, or runs the blower without producing heat is the most common winter call. The fault could be an ignition problem, a pressure switch, a limit switch tripping on high temperature, or a heat exchanger issue. The visit covers the ignition sequence, heat exchanger condition, and controls before any part is quoted. If the heat exchanger is cracked, that is a different conversation than a failed igniter, and it is worth knowing the difference before deciding what to do next.
The region's humidity and seasonal pollen load make filtration genuinely useful, not just optional. A standard return-air filter catches large particles but does not address finer allergens, VOCs, or airborne irritants that circulate through the system on every cycle. A whole-home filtration assessment looks at what the existing setup handles and where it falls short. UV air purifier installation and upgraded media filtration are both options depending on what the assessment finds. The visit covers what is currently in the system and what would address the specific concern.
A system that heats or cools the living room well but leaves a bedroom uncomfortable is often a distribution problem rather than an equipment problem. Registers that were adjusted years ago and never revisited, dampers in the ductwork that are partially closed, or a return that is not drawing enough air from the right part of the house can all produce uneven temperatures without anything being broken. Rebalancing the airflow across the register layout is a diagnostic and adjustment visit, and it often resolves comfort complaints that looked like equipment faults.
Low airflow at the registers can come from a clogged filter, a failing blower motor, a collapsed section of flex duct, or a disconnected duct joint in the attic or crawl space. Each of those has a different fix, and the right answer depends on where the restriction is. The visit covers blower performance, static pressure in the duct system, and a physical check of the accessible ductwork. Airflow problems that go undiagnosed long enough put extra strain on the compressor and the heat exchanger, because the system runs longer to move the same amount of conditioned air.
The sooner you call, the sooner your comfort is back, and getting the job scoped on the phone is the fastest way to move from a call to a scheduled visit. When you describe what the system is doing and what type of equipment is involved, the visit can be set up with a clear scope and a confirmed price before anyone comes out. That applies to routine calls and to emergencies alike.
A no-heat or no-cooling situation is handled the same way as any other call: the situation is described on the phone, the scope is established, and a price is confirmed before the visit is booked.
We are available every day from 7:30 AM to 9:00 PM at (470) 995-4495.
For a business or a tenant-occupied property where the space has to stay functional, the scope conversation on the phone covers what the visit will involve and how long the work is expected to take, so there are no open questions before anyone arrives. The process is written out on our page listing every HVAC service.
HVAC work like this is the bulk of what a season brings, and a system that is running but not performing is often telling you something specific. A system that short-cycles runs the compressor hard without completing enough of a cycle to condition the air properly. A system that runs constantly without reaching the set point is working against a load it cannot handle, which could be a refrigerant issue, a dirty coil, a duct leak, or an equipment problem. A system that makes noise during startup or shutdown is showing wear in a component that is worth catching before it fails completely.
When the technician comes out, refrigerant, airflow, and controls are all checked before a verdict. Nothing is quoted or replaced until the diagnosis supports it. If the system is at the point where a repair cost approaches what a replacement would run, that conversation happens before any work goes ahead, with a clear explanation of what the diagnosis found and what the options are. Commercial rooftop units are covered as well as residential systems, and the same diagnostic process applies.
The price is confirmed on the call before anything is scheduled. When you describe the system and the situation, the visit is scoped and a rate is given that covers what the visit involves. What the fault turns out to be on inspection, what has to be accessed to reach it, and whether a repair or a replacement is the right answer are the things that affect the final figure.
A refrigerant recharge, a blower motor replacement, and a full system installation are very different jobs, and the cost reflects what each one actually involves. If the scope changes on site because the inspection finds something the phone description did not cover, that conversation happens before the additional work proceeds. You are told what was found and what it would take to address it, and you decide before anything goes ahead.
A second opinion on a replacement quote is a fair thing to ask for. If another contractor has told you the system needs to go, a diagnostic visit is a reasonable way to get a second look at what the equipment is actually doing before that decision is made.
Call (470) 995-4495 and describe the situation, and the visit will be scoped from there.

Older homes in a city this size often have ductwork that was sized for equipment no longer installed, or duct connections that have loosened over time and are leaking conditioned air before it reaches the rooms it is meant to serve. A system that runs constantly without reaching the set point, uneven temperatures between rooms, and higher-than-expected energy bills are all worth a diagnostic visit rather than an assumption about what the equipment needs. A duct inspection combined with an equipment check gives a complete picture of where the comfort problem is actually coming from, and that picture is what a repair or replacement decision should be based on.
Yes. An intermittent fault is often easier to diagnose before it becomes a complete failure. Describing the pattern on the call, including when it happens, how long it lasts, and what the system does when it recovers, helps scope the visit and gives the technician a starting point rather than waiting for the fault to show itself.
Intermittent faults that only show up under load are diagnosed by running the system through a full cycle and monitoring performance as it operates. Refrigerant pressure, blower output, and control response are all checked while the system is running rather than at startup only. Describing the pattern of the fault on the call, including how long the system runs before the problem appears, helps the technician know what to watch for.
Yes. If you manage multiple properties and need service at more than one address, that can be discussed on the call and scheduled as a coordinated arrangement. How billing and access are handled across multiple addresses is part of that conversation.
The diagnosis is based on what the system is doing at the time of the visit, and some faults are intermittent. If the issue returns after the visit, call back and describe what happened. The follow-up is scoped the same way as the original call, and the prior visit is part of that conversation.
A heat pump conditions a home in both directions, cooling in summer and heating in winter from a single system. The winters across this region are real but moderate enough that a heat pump sized correctly for the home operates efficiently through most of the heating season without leaning heavily on supplemental heat. For a home that currently has a furnace and a separate central air system, a heat pump replacement consolidates both into one unit. The right fit depends on the home's layout, the existing equipment, and what the load calculation shows, and that conversation starts on the call.
It depends on what the inspection finds. A tune-up on an older system gives a clear picture of what is wearing out and whether the cost of keeping it going makes sense against replacement. Sometimes a clean evaporator coil and a refrigerant top-up buy another season for far less than a new unit. Other times the inspection confirms that replacement is the better financial decision, and knowing that is useful too.
Someone who can provide access to the equipment needs to be available, whether that is the tenant, the property manager, or the landlord. For work that only involves the outdoor unit, access arrangements may be simpler. For anything that requires entry to the unit or access to the air handler, confirm the access plan when the visit is booked.
