Our Heating Services in Fort Collins, Colorado
Furnace Repair
A furnace is the most common heating system in Fort Collins homes, and when it falters in the middle of winter, the house loses heat fast. Because a furnace involves gas, combustion, and venting, a repair is about safety as much as warmth, which is why getting it diagnosed and fixed correctly matters so much during our cold months.
Common Problems We Fix
- The furnace turns on but never reaches the temperature you set
- Cold air coming through the vents instead of warm air
- Loud banging, popping, or whistling when the system kicks on
- The blower running constantly and refusing to shut off
- A burning or musty smell the first time you run the heat
- The pilot or ignition repeatedly failing to light
- Uneven heat, with some rooms warm and others left cold
- The furnace cycling off long before the house is comfortable
When we arrive for a furnace repair, we run a full diagnostic rather than guessing at one part, checking the igniter, flame sensor, blower motor, gas supply, safety controls, and airflow to find the true cause. We explain what we find and what the repair involves so you can decide with clear information, and we verify the system is running safely before we finish. If you smell gas or suspect a gas leak, go outside immediately and call 911 – this is a serious emergency that needs urgent attention from the gas company.
Furnace Installation
When a furnace reaches the end of its life or no longer keeps up, a properly installed replacement is what restores dependable, even heat for years of Fort Collins winters. A new furnace is a major investment, and how it gets installed matters every bit as much as the equipment, since proper sizing and clean, safe setup determine how well it heats and how long it lasts.
Reasons Homeowners Choose a New Furnace
- The old furnace has failed and is not worth repairing again
- Repairs are stacking up on an aging, unreliable unit
- Energy use keeps climbing as the furnace loses efficiency
- Some rooms never get warm no matter how long it runs
- The furnace is well past its expected years of service
- The house takes far longer to heat than it used to
- A newly bought home came with a tired, neglected furnace
- You want more reliable heat before the next hard winter
Our installation process starts with proper sizing, looking at your square footage, layout, insulation, windows, ductwork, and how exposed the home is to wind and cold rather than just matching the old unit. We remove and dispose of the old furnace, set the new one, and make clean connections to the gas, electrical, ductwork, and venting, then verify combustion and safety and test that it heats evenly throughout the home. Done with this care, a new furnace delivers reliable, efficient warmth for many Fort Collins winters.
Boiler Repair and Installation
A good number of the older homes around Fort Collins, especially in the established neighborhoods near Old Town and the university, run on boiler and radiant heat. That steady, even warmth is hard to beat, and these systems are built to last, but they take someone who understands hydronic heat to service them properly, which is exactly what we bring.
Common Problems We Fix
- The boiler is running but radiators or baseboards stay cold
- Knocking or gurgling sounds traveling through the pipes
- Pressure that keeps dropping or creeping too high
- Leaks showing up around valves, fittings, or the unit itself
- Heat reaching some rooms while skipping others entirely
- The burner or pilot cutting out again and again
- A slow warm up that takes far longer than it used to
- Rusty or discolored water turning up in the system
Our approach to a boiler is careful and methodical. For repairs, we check pressure, circulation, the expansion tank, valves, the pump, and the burner to pinpoint where the trouble starts, since a cold radiator can come from trapped air, a circulation fault, or sediment buildup. For installations, we match the new boiler to your existing radiators and piping and set it up to circulate properly so heat reaches every room evenly. Either way, the goal is the reliable radiant warmth these Fort Collins homes were built around, delivered for decades to come.
Heat Pump Installation and Repair
Heat pumps have become an increasingly popular heating option in Fort Collins, since modern units handle both heating and cooling efficiently and perform far better in cold weather than older models did. For the right home, a heat pump can be an efficient way to stay comfortable year round, and we install and repair them with the same care we bring to every system.
Common Problems We Fix
- The heat pump runs but is not warming the house in winter
- Ice building up heavily on the outdoor unit
- The system stuck running in one mode and not switching
- Weak airflow or air that never feels warm enough
- The unit short cycling on and off repeatedly
- Loud or unusual noises from the outdoor unit
- A jump in energy use with no change in how you run it
- The system not keeping up during a cold stretch
With a heat pump, proper sizing and equipment selection matter a great deal, because not every unit is rated for the same cold performance, and our winters demand a system suited to the climate. For installations, we help you choose equipment that will deliver heat reliably here and set it up correctly for efficiency. For repairs, we diagnose the refrigerant circuit, the reversing valve, the defrost cycle, and the controls to find the true cause. A well chosen, properly serviced heat pump can keep a Fort Collins home comfortable efficiently through the year.

Why Fort Collins Homeowners Choose Fort Collins Heating and Air Pros
We Find the Real Problem
Anyone can swap a part and hope the issue goes away. We dig until we find why the part failed in the first place, because treating a symptom alone usually means you are calling someone again within weeks, often in the same cold stretch. A homeowner near Old Town had been told three times she needed a new blower, when the real issue was a restricted return that we corrected in one visit. Root cause work is what saves you from paying for the same heating repair more than once.
Safety Comes First
Most heating systems involve gas, combustion, and venting, so safety is never an afterthought in our work. We check for hazards on every job, verify proper combustion and venting, and we will not cut corners that could put your home or family at risk. If we find a dangerous condition, like a cracked heat exchanger or a venting problem, we tell you straight and handle it properly. That careful approach is part of why Fort Collins homeowners trust us with the systems their families depend on all winter.
We Know Every Kind of Heating System
Furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps all work differently, and many companies are strong with one and weak with the others. We handle all of them, which matters in Fort Collins where the housing is so varied, from older homes on radiant heat near downtown to newer builds with modern furnaces or heat pumps. Whatever heats your home, we have the experience to service it properly rather than learning on your equipment.
Fast Response in the Cold
A heating failure during a Fort Collins winter is not something that should wait days. Because our crews work across the city and the surrounding towns every day, we are usually close by and can respond quickly when your heat goes out. We give you an honest arrival time rather than a vague window, so you are not stuck guessing while the house gets colder. Getting to people fast when heat and safety are on the line is a standard we hold ourselves to all season.
Honest Repair or Replace Advice
When your heating system needs work, we give you the straight story on whether a repair makes sense or whether the system is far enough gone that replacing it is smarter. We will never push a new system on you when a sound repair will do, and we will not keep patching a failing one just to run up the work. Plenty of Fort Collins homeowners have stayed with us for years precisely because we told them the honest truth about their options.
Our Service Process
1. You Reach Out and We Listen
When you contact us, we start by understanding what you need, whether it is a system that has quit, one that is not keeping up, or a plan to replace aging equipment. We ask the right questions so we arrive prepared for the job in front of us.
2. We Assess and Diagnose
Our technician inspects and tests your heating system or evaluates the home for a new install, checking the components, combustion, venting, and airflow as needed. Then we explain what is going on in plain language you can follow.
3. We Do the Work Right and Safely
Once you understand the options and decide how to proceed, we carry out the repair or installation with care, verifying safety along the way. We carry common parts so many repairs can be completed in a single visit.
4. We Test and Confirm
Before we leave, we test the system to make sure it is heating properly and running safely, walk you through what we did, and clean up after ourselves. The goal is a warm, safe home and work you do not have to think about again.

Professional Heating Repair vs DIY Attempts
When the heat goes out on a cold night, the urge to fix it yourself is understandable, and a few first checks are genuinely worth doing. Make sure the thermostat is set to heat and above the room temperature, check whether a breaker has tripped, confirm the system switch was not accidentally turned off, and replace the filter if it is badly clogged, since a blocked filter can shut a furnace down on a safety limit. Those simple steps occasionally restore heat on their own, and they are safe for any homeowner to try.
Beyond that, heating repair is not the place for trial and error, and the reasons start with safety. Most heating systems involve natural gas, combustion, high voltage electrical components, and venting that carries combustion byproducts out of the home, while boilers add water under pressure and heat pumps add refrigerant under pressure. A mistake with any of those can be genuinely dangerous, from a gas problem to improper venting that puts carbon monoxide where it should never be. We have been called into Fort Collins homes to fix DIY heating attempts that made a small problem worse or created a safety concern, and the corrective work usually costs more than the original repair would have.
Diagnosis is the other piece. Knowing the system is not heating is very different from knowing why, and the causes vary widely across furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps. Without the training and instruments, guessing usually means replacing parts that were never the problem, which wastes money and leaves you cold. Our technicians read the whole system, identify the true cause, and verify the repair is safe, which is the fastest path back to a warm home. If you ever smell gas, do not investigate it yourself, and if you smell gas or suspect a gas leak, go outside immediately and call 911 – this is a serious emergency that needs urgent attention from the gas company.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my furnace blowing cold air?
Cold air from the vents when you are calling for heat can come from several places. Sometimes it is a thermostat set to the fan running constantly, so it blows room temperature air between cycles. Other times it points to a failed igniter, a flame sensor that needs cleaning, a tripped safety, or a gas supply issue, and in an older Fort Collins furnace a worn part is often the culprit. We diagnose the actual cause rather than guessing, because the fix for a dirty flame sensor is very different from the fix for a failing igniter.
Should I repair my heating system or replace it?
It depends on the age, condition, and history of the system. If it is relatively young and the repair is straightforward, fixing it usually makes sense. If it is older, breaking down often, and struggling to keep up, replacement may serve you far better over the long run, especially heading into a hard Fort Collins winter. We give you an honest assessment of your specific system rather than steering you toward whichever option benefits us, so you can make the right call for your home.
Do you work on boilers as well as furnaces?
We do. Many companies handle one well and the other poorly, but we are experienced with both, along with heat pumps. A number of older Fort Collins homes near downtown and the university run on boiler and radiant heat, which behaves very differently from forced air, and we understand hydronic systems thoroughly. Whatever heats your home, we can service it properly rather than learning on your equipment.
How fast can you come out when my heat goes out?
We work to get to you as fast as possible, often the same day for urgent heating failures. Because our crews cover Fort Collins and the nearby towns every day, we are usually close by and can respond quickly, which matters when the house is getting cold during a freeze. When you call, we give you an honest arrival time rather than a vague all day window, so you can plan around it instead of waiting in a cold house.
How often should my heating system be serviced?
We recommend an annual check, ideally in fall before the heating season begins. For a furnace that means cleaning and inspecting the burners, checking the igniter and flame sensor, and verifying combustion and venting. Boilers and heat pumps have their own seasonal checks. Regular maintenance catches small issues before they leave you without heat on a cold night and keeps the system running efficiently and safely through our long Fort Collins winters. It is far easier than an emergency breakdown in a freeze.
Are heat pumps a good option in Fort Collins winters?
Modern heat pumps have improved dramatically and perform well in cold weather, far better than older units did. For the right home, a heat pump can heat efficiently through much of our winter and cool in summer too. The key is choosing a unit rated for our climate and sizing it correctly, since not every model performs the same in the cold. We help you select equipment suited to Fort Collins rather than something spec’d for a milder region, and install it to deliver reliable heat.
Why does my furnace keep short cycling?
Short cycling, where the furnace turns on and off every few minutes without completing a cycle, is hard on the equipment. Causes include a dirty filter restricting airflow, an overheating limit switch, a poorly placed thermostat, a flame sensor problem, or a furnace that was oversized for the home. Running that way wears parts out faster and drives up energy use. We trace the real cause and correct it, because letting it continue usually leads to a larger failure, often in the middle of a cold stretch.
Is there a good heating company near me in Fort Collins?
If you are anywhere in Fort Collins or the surrounding communities like Laporte, Wellington, and Pierce, you are squarely in our service area. We are a local team that works across this region every day and handles furnaces, boilers, and heat pumps alike, so we are both nearby and equipped for whatever heats your home. Being local also means we know the homes and the winters here, which makes our work faster and more reliable.
What should I do if I smell a burning odor from my heating system?
A faint dusty smell the first time you run the heat each season is normal as dust burns off, and it should fade within an hour. A sharp electrical or burning plastic smell means you should shut the system down and call us, since it can signal a failing motor or wiring problem. A rotten egg odor should always be treated as urgent. If you smell gas or suspect a gas leak, go outside immediately and call 911 – this is a serious emergency that needs urgent attention from the gas company.
Why are some rooms in my house colder than others?
Uneven heating is a common complaint, especially in two story homes and older Fort Collins houses where ductwork was added over time or radiators are unbalanced. The causes range from duct leaks and blocked vents to circulation problems in a boiler system or equipment that cannot push heat far enough. We diagnose the whole system rather than chasing one cold room, because the fix might be a duct correction, a balancing adjustment, or addressing a circulation issue, depending on how your home is heated.
Will you tell me honestly if I need a new system?
Yes. If your heating system is far enough gone that repairs no longer make sense, we will tell you straight rather than keep charging you for fixes that only buy a little time. And if a sound repair will get you several more good years, we will say that too. Our reputation across Fort Collins is built on honest advice, and we would rather earn your trust for the long run than push a sale you do not need right now.
