Local considerations
Heat pump performance in Lafayette depends on outdoor temperature in a way that gas equipment does not. The capacity drop at low ambient temperatures is normal and predictable, and sizing accounts for it with auxiliary heat.
Freeze protection matters in parts of Lafayette where pipework runs through unconditioned space. A boiler losing pressure in midwinter risks frozen pipes on top of the cold rooms, which is why those calls move up the queue.

What is your thermostat reading?
Drag the dial to the temperature your thermostat shows now. The readout names the likely cause band, how urgent it is, and which page to read next.

- Likely cause band
- Cooling capacity loss: dirty coil, low refrigerant charge from a leak, or a failing capacitor.
- Urgency
- Call today
- Read next
- AC not cooling
What to do while you wait
- Set the system to off instead of raising the setpoint, which will not force it to run.
- Check whether the outdoor unit on a heat pump is iced over, and do not chip at it.
- Look at the filter and replace it if light will not pass through.
- Never heat a room with a gas range or an outdoor appliance. That is a carbon monoxide risk.

Call (855) 321-3194Questions
Lafayette HVAC questions
Is a cracked heat exchanger repairable?
No. A cracked heat exchanger is a carbon monoxide risk rather than a comfort fault, and the correct response is replacement of the furnace. Any provider suggesting a patch on one is giving you poor advice.
Can I run a space heater meanwhile?
Portable heaters carry their own fire risk and should never be left running unattended or near fabric. Never use a gas range or an outdoor appliance to heat a room, which is a direct carbon monoxide hazard.
Do I need a carbon monoxide alarm?
If any gas appliance runs in the home, yes. Carbon monoxide is colourless and odourless, and a working alarm near sleeping areas is the only reliable warning. If one sounds, leave the building and call 911 from outside.
Do you work on boilers in Lafayette?
Yes, where a provider covering your ZIP code handles them. Boiler faults run to pressure loss, circulator pumps, expansion tanks and zone valves, which is a different skill set from forced-air work. Say so when you call.
Why does my furnace smell when it first runs?
A brief dusty smell on the first run of the season is normal as dust burns off the heat exchanger. A persistent burning smell, or any electrical smell, is not. Shut it off and call.
