Real experience. Local knowledge. Comfort is the job.
Dealing with a furnace that won't keep up or an AC that can't cool? We handle the full range of residential and commercial HVAC work, repair, maintenance, and installation on both sides of the system. Commercial rooftop units are covered as well as residential equipment, so property managers and business owners can call the same number as homeowners.
The scope of what we handle includes AC repair and service, furnace repair and installation, heat pump service, full system replacement, ductless mini-split installation, ductwork repair and sealing, thermostat and smart-control installation, indoor air quality and air filtration, seasonal maintenance, and emergency no-heat and no-cool calls. One call and the job gets scoped.
A cooling call starts with the symptom. Warm air from the vents, a unit that cycles constantly, uneven temperatures room to room, or a system that won't turn on at all each point toward a different cause. The visit covers a full diagnosis: refrigerant leak checks, condenser and compressor inspection, airflow testing, and a look at what the thermostat and controls are telling the system to do. You get a clear picture of what is wrong before any repair is authorized.
A no-heat call gets scoped on the phone so you know what the visit will cover before anyone comes out. On-site, the work includes checking the heat exchanger, blower motor, ignition system, and airflow through the supply and return. Furnace tune-ups are available ahead of the heating season, and when a furnace is too far gone to repair economically, replacement options are laid out plainly. The price for the visit is confirmed on the call.
Heat pumps fail in both directions: a unit that won't heat in January and one that won't cool in July both need a diagnosis before a cause can be named. The visit covers refrigerant levels, reversing valve operation, coil condition, and the defrost cycle. Maintenance visits keep efficiency up and catch small problems before they grow. When a heat pump reaches end of life, we handle the replacement and the new installation.
The difference between a repair and a replacement gets laid out plainly on every call where it is relevant. When the repair cost is close to the cost of a new system, or when the equipment is old enough that efficiency has dropped significantly, replacement is worth considering. A new installation covers system sizing for the home or building, equipment selection, and a full commissioning visit to confirm everything operates correctly before we leave.
Leaking ducts are one of the most common reasons a system runs longer than it should without reaching the set temperature. Rooms that are always too hot or too cold, higher-than-expected utility bills, and dust around supply registers can all point to duct problems. We inspect, seal, and where necessary replace ductwork sections, then test airflow to confirm the repair made a difference.
A thermostat that reads the wrong temperature, fails to hold a schedule, or won't communicate with the system is worth replacing before it causes a larger problem. We install programmable and smart thermostats, handle the wiring to the air handler or furnace, and configure zoning systems where separate areas of a home or building need independent control.
Whole-home air filtration, UV air purifiers, and air handler upgrades all fall within what we install and service. If indoor air quality is a concern, whether from dust, allergens, or seasonal smoke, the visit starts with a look at what the existing system can support and what an upgrade would involve. Whole-home humidifiers are also available for homes where dry air becomes a problem through the heating season.
A spring AC tune-up and a fall furnace or heat pump tune-up both follow a consistent checklist: filters, electrical connections, refrigerant levels or heat exchanger condition depending on the equipment, and a full operational test. The system is tested before the visit ends so you know it is ready for the season ahead.
Booking an HVAC service call is simple, and it starts with a conversation. You do not need to know what is wrong before you call. Describe what the system is doing, or not doing, and the person who answers can tell you what the visit will cover and what it costs. Nothing is scheduled until the price is confirmed and you are ready to move forward.
Describe the fault. Hear what it involves. Decide from there.
We are available every day from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Call now and we'll set up your appointment.
The Pacific Northwest climate shapes what heating and cooling work looks like here in ways that differ from most of the country. Lake Oswego winters are mild and wet, but summers have grown noticeably warmer over the past several years, and wildfire smoke has become a real seasonal concern across the Willamette Valley. Clackamas County homes built before the recent heat events often have no central cooling at all. The services below reflect what actually comes up here.
Oregon has historically ranked among the states with the fewest homes equipped with residential air conditioning, and many Lake Oswego homes were built without any cooling system at all. After the record heat events of recent summers, that has changed quickly. Ductless mini-split systems are a practical solution for homes without existing ductwork: a wall-mounted indoor unit and a compact outdoor unit can cool one room or several, depending on how the system is configured. For homes that do have ducts, a central AC installation uses the existing air handler and adds the outdoor condensing unit. We assess the home, recommend the right approach, and handle the installation from start to finish.
Wildfire smoke carries fine particles that standard HVAC filters are not designed to stop. A MERV-13 or higher-rated filter captures a significantly larger fraction of those particles, and upgrading the filter slot or the air handler to accept a higher-rated filter is a straightforward job in most systems. Whole-home air purifiers that mount in the ductwork add another layer of filtration. We keep you informed from diagnosis to final test so you know exactly what was installed and how it changes what the system can do.
Oregon has pushed heat-pump adoption hard, and a growing number of homeowners in the Lake Oswego area are moving away from gas furnaces as their primary heat source. A heat pump handles both heating and cooling from a single outdoor unit, which makes it a practical replacement for a furnace-and-AC combination. The transition involves removing the existing furnace, installing the new heat pump and air handler, and connecting the refrigerant lines and low-voltage controls. We handle the equipment side of the installation and coordinate with whoever is handling the electrical work on the panel and circuit.
Comfort problems don't wait, and neither do we, which is why short-notice and urgent calls are part of what we handle. A system that goes down in the middle of a cold snap or a heat event is not a job that can wait a week. When an emergency call comes in, the scope is covered on the phone first: what the system is doing, what the visit will involve, and what it costs. From there, a visit gets scheduled as quickly as the calendar allows.
We take no-heat and no-cool calls, system-down calls, and situations where the equipment won't turn on at all. We are available every day from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Let us handle the install and the permits.
Lake Oswego is our primary service area, and we work throughout the communities around it. That includes West Linn, Tualatin, Tigard, Milwaukie, Oregon City, Gladstone, Sherwood, and Lake Grove. If you are in the southern Portland metro or elsewhere in Clackamas County, call and we will confirm whether your address falls within our range.
Homeowners, landlords, property managers, and commercial tenants all call for the same work. The equipment and the problems are often the same regardless of who owns the building.
Call (971) 459-8956 during our operating hours, every day from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM, and describe what the system is doing or what work you need done.
The person who answers can scope the job on the phone and give you a price before anything is scheduled. Nothing moves forward until you have the cost confirmed and you are ready to proceed.
Yes. We work with homeowners, landlords, property managers, and commercial tenants throughout Lake Oswego and the surrounding Clackamas County communities. Commercial rooftop units are covered as well as residential split systems, so a property manager dealing with an RTU fault calls the same number as a homeowner with a furnace issue. The scope of the visit is established on the phone regardless of the property type.
The price you get on the call reflects what the visit covers based on the information you provide about the system and the symptom. If the diagnosis on-site reveals a different or more involved problem than what the call described, we explain what changed and what it means for the cost before any additional work is authorized. You are not committed to anything beyond what was agreed when you called.
The visit price covers the diagnostic work: the technician coming out, inspecting the system, and identifying the cause of the problem. Parts and repair labor are quoted separately once the diagnosis is complete. We walk through what the repair involves and what it costs before any work beyond the diagnostic is started.
A job can cost more than the initial scope if the diagnosis uncovers a problem that was not apparent from the symptoms described on the call. A refrigerant leak that turns out to involve a damaged coil, or a furnace ignition fault that points to a failed heat exchanger, are both examples where the repair scope changes once the system is open. We explain what was found and what it costs to address it before proceeding.
System size and home size both factor into installation and replacement pricing, because the equipment has to be matched to the square footage, insulation level, and duct layout of the building. For repair calls, the cost is driven more by the fault and the parts involved than by the size of the home. Either way, the price is confirmed on the call before the visit is scheduled.
Warm air coming from the vents when cooling is set, a system that runs constantly without reaching the thermostat temperature, short cycling where the unit turns on and off in rapid succession, and unusual noises like banging or squealing are all signs worth a call. Weak airflow from one or more registers can point to a duct problem or a failing blower. Any of those symptoms is worth describing on the call so we can scope what the visit should cover.
Turn the system off and call us. A burning smell can indicate an overheating motor, a failing electrical component inside the air handler, or debris in the duct system that is being pulled through. A loud banging or grinding noise often points to a mechanical problem with the blower or compressor. Continuing to run the system when either of those is present can turn a repair into a replacement.
A diagnostic and repair visit for a common fault, such as a failed capacitor, a dirty flame sensor, or a refrigerant charge issue, usually takes one to two hours. A more involved repair or a first-time installation visit takes longer, and we give you a realistic time estimate when the job is scoped on the call. Full system replacements are typically scheduled as a full-day job.
Yes.
When a system goes down during a cold snap or a heat event, call (971) 459-8956 and we will get the visit scheduled as quickly as the calendar allows.
We are available every day from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM for urgent calls. The scope and the cost are covered on the phone before the visit is set.
We work with landlords and property managers across Lake Oswego and Clackamas County for repairs, seasonal maintenance, and system replacements across single units and multi-unit properties. The process is the same as for a homeowner: the job is scoped on the call, the price is confirmed before the visit, and the system is tested before the technician leaves. If you manage multiple properties and need ongoing HVAC support, call and we can discuss what that looks like.
When the job is done, we leave your home clean and comfortable, and the system confirmed to be running before we go. Lake Oswego HVAC Company is open every day from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM for heating and cooling work across the area.
A price agreed before each visit. Clear scheduling each visit. Code-compliant every time.

We cover heating and cooling for homes, rental properties, and commercial buildings throughout Lake Oswego and the surrounding Clackamas County area. Whether you need a quick repair, a full system replacement, or a first-time cooling install before summer, we scope the job on the call and give you a price before anything is scheduled. The table below lays out what each service covers and who it fits best. Call us to talk through your situation and get the work on the calendar.
| Service Type | What's Included | Common Needs | What to Keep in Mind |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ductwork Repair & Sealing |
| Homes with uneven temperatures, high energy use, or a system that runs longer than expected | Leaking ducts push conditioned air into attics and crawl spaces instead of into the rooms the thermostat is directing it toward. Sealing measurably improves distribution. |
| Heating & Furnace Repair |
| Any home where the furnace won't light, shuts off early, or blows cold air | Short cycling and weak heat output are among the most common furnace complaints through the wet Pacific Northwest winter months. Both are diagnosable on a single visit. |
| Indoor Air Quality & Air Filtration |
| Lake Oswego households dealing with wildfire smoke, seasonal allergens, or winter dampness | Standard 1-inch filters do not capture the fine particulates wildfire smoke carries. We check whether your air handler can support a denser filter before recommending an upgrade. |
| Thermostat & Smart Controls |
| Homes where the thermostat is misreading temperature or failing to communicate with the system | A smart-control upgrade paired with a heat pump gives room-by-room temperature management that a basic single-stage thermostat cannot match. |
| AC Repair & Service |
| Homes or buildings where the AC is running but not cooling, or not starting at all | Clackamas County summers have pushed older systems hard in recent years. A diagnostic visit identifies what the system needs before assuming a full replacement is required. |
| Emergency HVAC Service |
| Households or buildings with a system that has stopped working entirely | We are available every day from 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM. Call as soon as the problem starts so we can get the visit on the schedule quickly. |
| Heat Pump Electrification |
| Lake Oswego homeowners looking to move away from gas heating | Oregon's mild winters keep heat pump efficiency high across most of the heating season. Smart-control compatibility is part of the conversation before the install is scheduled. |
| HVAC System Installation & ReplacementMost Popular |
| Homeowners, landlords, and property managers whose system has reached the end of its service life | Oversized equipment short-cycles and wears out faster. Undersized equipment runs constantly. We match the unit to the space before the install date is set. |
| Seasonal Maintenance & Tune-Ups |
| Any home or commercial building heading into peak heating or cooling season | Catching a worn part or a low refrigerant charge before the season starts is less costly than an emergency call in the middle of it. We test the system before the visit ends. |
| Heat Pump Repair & Service |
| Homes with a heat pump that won't heat in winter, won't cool in summer, or runs without reaching set temperature | Oregon's mild climate makes heat pumps efficient across most of the heating season. When one stops working, the fix depends on which mode has failed and what the inspection shows. |
| Ductless Mini-Split Installation |
| Older Lake Oswego homes built without central air that need cooling without major duct work | No duct demolition or major construction required. A ductless system can serve one room or multiple zones depending on the number of indoor heads installed. |
| Wildfire-Smoke Air Filtration (MERV-13+) |
| Willamette Valley homeowners who need protection from smoke events without straining the HVAC system | Oregon wildfire seasons have made MERV-13 filtration a practical consideration for homes across this region. We confirm compatibility before any upgrade is installed. |
