Your Home Deserves Comfort Year-Round
Rare Heating and Air provides heating and cooling services that keep your home running the way it should
You rely on your heating and cooling system every day, whether it's the middle of summer or the coldest night of winter. When your air conditioner stops cooling or your furnace struggles to keep up, it affects everything from your sleep to your energy bills. Rare Heating and Air works with homeowners who need their systems repaired, maintained, or replaced so their homes stay comfortable without constant worry.
We handle service calls for systems that stop working, seasonal maintenance to prevent breakdowns, and full replacements when a unit reaches the end of its life. Our work includes diagnosing mechanical failures, cleaning components that affect airflow, checking refrigerant levels, and replacing parts that wear out over time. If your system is outdated or inefficient, we walk you through options that fit your home and budget, then install the new equipment so it operates correctly from day one.
If your heating or cooling system isn't working the way it should, reach out to Rare Heating and Air to schedule a service call.
Questions homeowners usually ask before booking
These are the questions we hear most often from people calling about heating and cooling work. If something isn't covered here, you're welcome to ask when you reach out.
How soon can you come out for a repair?
Most service calls are scheduled within 24 hours, and we offer same-day appointments if you're dealing with no heat or no cooling. We'll give you a time window and call before we arrive.
What does a maintenance visit include?
We check your system's electrical components, clean the coils, replace or clean the filter, test the thermostat, and measure refrigerant levels. The visit usually takes about an hour, and we let you know if we find anything that needs attention.
How do I know if I need a repair or a replacement?
If your system is more than 12 years old, requires frequent repairs, or isn't keeping your home comfortable, replacement often makes more sense. We'll give you an honest recommendation based on the age and condition of your equipment.
What brands do you install?
We install several major brands and help you choose based on your home's size, your budget, and how long you plan to stay in the house. We'll walk through the differences in efficiency and warranty coverage so you understand what you're getting.
Do you offer financing for new systems?
Yes, we work with financing companies that offer payment plans for replacements and larger repairs. You can apply during your estimate, and we'll explain the terms before you commit.
If your heating or cooling system isn't keeping up or you're due for maintenance, contact Rare Heating and Air to set up a visit. We'll take a look, explain what's going on, and help you decide what makes the most sense for your home.

What Happens During a Service Visit
When you call us for a repair or maintenance visit, we start by listening to what you've noticed, whether it's a noise, a temperature issue, or a system that won't turn on. We inspect the equipment, test controls, check electrical connections, and measure airflow to identify what's causing the problem. Most repairs are completed the same day, and we explain what we found and what we fixed before we leave.
After the work is done, you'll notice your system running quieter, cooling or heating more evenly, and cycling on and off the way it's supposed to. Your energy bills may drop if the issue was causing the system to run longer than necessary. You'll also have a clearer sense of how long your equipment will last and whether it makes sense to keep repairing it or start planning for a replacement.
We also offer maintenance plans that include filter changes, coil cleaning, and system checks twice a year. These visits help catch small issues before they turn into bigger repairs, and they keep your warranty valid if your equipment is still covered. If your system needs a major part or a full replacement, we provide written estimates and go over your options in detail so you can make a decision that works for your situation.

Shawn responded quickly to my request for service and I was able to set up an appointment for the next day. Shawn demonstrates professionalism and is very knowledgeable in all aspects of heating and cooling as he was able to troubleshoot and diagnose the problem with our AC unit right away. He was able to replace the broken component of an older AC unit quickly and his prices are fair reasonable compared to his competitors. When it comes to honest and reliable HVAC service you can trust, Rare Heating and Air is definitely who I would recommend contacting.
