Emergency repair, system installs and seasonal service across the county. Flat quotes before the work starts — you will never see a surprise on the invoice.

Call (555) 014-2200
12-month warranty

On parts and labour, every job, no register-your-product hoops.

24/7 dispatch

A person answers the phone, not an answering service in another state.

Flat quotes

Price agreed before we start. If it takes longer, that is our problem.

Financing

On approved credit for installs. 0% for 12 months on qualifying systems.

What we do

Four things, done properly.

We do not sell systems people do not need. If a $180 repair buys you three more winters, that is what we will tell you.

01

Emergency repair

24/7 dispatch with common parts already on the truck. Most calls are diagnosed and fixed on the first visit.

$89 diagnostic
02

System install

Furnaces, heat pumps, central air. We run a Manual J load calculation first, so the system actually matches the house.

$4,200–$11,500
03

Seasonal service

Spring and fall tune-ups. The cheapest repair is the one you catch in October instead of January.

$149 / visit
04

Ductwork

Sealing, balancing and new runs. If one room is always cold, this is usually why — not the furnace.

Quoted per job
The work

What a finished install looks like.

A newly installed high-efficiency furnace in a clean basement utility room

Every install leaves the same way: labelled, sealed, tested, and swept up. We photograph the finished work and email it to you with the warranty paperwork the same day.

  • Load calculation run before the system is ordered
  • Plenum and return sealed with mastic, not tape
  • Condensate line trapped and run to a drain, not a bucket
  • Combustion analysis on gas equipment, printout left with you
  • Old equipment and packaging hauled away
How a call goes

Four steps, no mystery.

STEP 01

You call

A person answers. We ask what the system is doing and roughly how old it is.

STEP 02

We arrive

Inside a two-hour window. You get a text when the truck leaves the last job.

STEP 03

Flat quote

Diagnosed, priced and explained before a single part comes off the truck.

STEP 04

Fixed & tested

We run the system through a full cycle before we leave, and we take the mess with us.

Reviews

What the neighbours say.

Reviews shown here are written for this demonstration site.

★★★★★
D. Whitaker
Ridgefield
Furnace repair

Furnace died on the coldest night of the year. Kessler had someone out in ninety minutes and didn't gouge us on the after-hours rate. The tech showed me the cracked part before he replaced it.

★★★★★
A. Okonkwo
Fairview
Heat pump install

Got three quotes for a heat pump. Kessler was the only one who measured the house before giving a number. Ended up middle on price and first on actually explaining the trade-offs.

★★★★★
M. Salvatore
Oak Hollow
Blower motor

They talked me out of a full replacement and fixed a $200 board instead. Bought me four more years. That's why I still call them.

Not sure which

The honest version.

A

System under 10 years

Almost always worth repairing. Parts are available and the efficiency gain from replacing will not pay you back.

Repair
B

10–15 years, big-ticket failure

Compressor, heat exchanger or coil. This is the real decision point — we will price both and let you choose.

It depends
C

Over 15 years, R-22 refrigerant

Refrigerant alone can cost more than the repair. Usually the point where replacing genuinely wins.

Replace

Pricing

Repair it, or replace it?

The question every homeowner actually calls about. Move the sliders and you will get the same answer we would give you on the phone — before we have sold you anything.

Our recommendation

Repair it

At this age the parts are still available and a repair buys you real time. Replacing now would not pay you back.

Repair now$650
Replace instead$6,800
Rule-of-thumb score7,800
Est. years bought4–6

Guidance only, using the $5,000 rule (age × repair cost). A technician has to look at the system before anything is final. Figures are illustrative for this demonstration site.
