Home Heating Repair in Austin, TX
Same-Day Service Available 7 Days a Week · Licensed Texas Contractor TACLA00116720C · 512-992-5537
Central Texas heat is the headline, but a cold snap finds every weak point in a heating system — usually on the first genuinely cold night of the year, when nobody has run it since spring. Setpoint Services has kept HVAC equipment running for Austin-area businesses for years. We bring the same technicians and the same standards to homes across the Austin area.
Signs Your Heating Needs Repair
Heating problems tend to show up all at once, because the system sat idle for months. These are the calls we take most often.
- No heat at all — the system runs but the air stays cool
- The furnace starts, then shuts down after a few minutes
- The blower runs constantly without producing warm air
- A heat pump that cools fine but will not heat
- A burning smell that does not clear after the first few minutes of the season
- Booming or rumbling on ignition
- The thermostat calls for heat and nothing responds
- Rooms that never warm up while others overheat
What We Check on a Service Call
Most Austin-area homes run one of two setups: a gas furnace, or a heat pump that reverses the air conditioning cycle to produce heat. They fail in different ways, so the first thing we establish is which one you have and what it is actually doing.
- Ignitor, flame sensor, and burners — the usual reason a furnace lights and then quits
- Reversing valve and defrost control — on a heat pump that cools but will not heat
- Auxiliary and emergency heat strips — whether backup heat is engaging when it should
- Blower motor and airflow — a restricted filter can trip a furnace on high limit
- Limit switches and safety controls — what shut the system down, and why
- Thermostat and control wiring — including whether it is calling for heat correctly
- Breaker, disconnect, and gas supply at the equipment
No heat and the temperature dropping? Call 512-992-5537 — same-day service is typically available, 7 days a week, across Austin and the surrounding area.
Safety Comes First on Gas Equipment
A furnace burns fuel inside your house, so a heating call is not only about restoring warmth. We check the heat exchanger, the venting, and the safety controls as part of the diagnosis. If we find something that makes the equipment unsafe to operate, we tell you plainly and we do not put it back in service. That is the one part of the job that is not negotiable.
Repair or Replace
On an older furnace facing a major component failure, replacement is often the better spend — and since the same equipment usually handles your cooling, replacing it fixes both seasons at once. On a newer system, a repair almost always makes more sense. You get the diagnosis, the cost, and our read on which way to go before any work starts. If replacement is the better call, see home system replacement.
A heating system that has not run since spring is worth checking before the first cold night — that is what a seasonal tune-up is for. And when summer comes back around, we handle home AC repair as well.
We service all makes and models.
