Repair of heat strips, heat pumps and furnaces before or during a South Florida cold front.
Heating Repair for Hialeah buildings
A typical Hialeah house has a low-slope roof with almost no attic, so the air handler sits in a hallway closet or the garage and the ducts run through a shallow space that reaches very high temperatures in summer. Additions and converted garages are common too, and they are often served by an undersized system or a window unit. We size equipment for the house as it is lived in today, and mini splits are usually the cleanest answer for an added room.
Heating is used only a few days a year here, so faults go unnoticed until the first cold front. The most common complaint is a burning smell the first time the heat comes on, which is usually dust burning off the electric heating elements and clears within minutes.
If the heat does not come on at all, blows cold air or trips the breaker, the heating elements, sequencer or thermostat wiring need to be tested.

How we handle it

Heating Repair in Hialeah: questions
Is the burning smell when I turn on the heat dangerous?
A dusty smell that fades within ten to fifteen minutes is normal after months without use. A smell of melting plastic, visible smoke or a smell that persists is not. Turn the system off and call.
Is a permit required for HVAC work in Hialeah?
Installing or replacing air conditioning equipment in Hialeah requires a mechanical permit and a final inspection. Permits here are issued by the City of Hialeah Building Department. Repairs, maintenance and cleaning do not need one. We file the paperwork and attend the inspection.
Do your technicians speak Spanish?
Yes. You can book, get your diagnosis and receive your written quote in Spanish or English.
My Hialeah home has an addition that never cools properly. What can you do?
Additions and enclosed garages are usually connected to a system that was sized for the original house. We calculate the load of the added space and either rebalance the ductwork or install a dedicated ductless mini split, which is typically the more reliable fix. New equipment is permitted through the City of Hialeah Building Department.
