Emergency Heating Repair in Falls Church, Virginia
Heat back on, day or night. Our office is on West Broad Street, so Falls Church is not a service area on a map for us, it is where we are.
Before anything else: the furnace is rarely what kills people. What they do next is.
Most carbon monoxide deaths in the United States happen in the cold months, and more than half fall in November, December, January and February. The largest single category in the most recent year the Consumer Product Safety Commission reported was portable generators, which it notes are often used to heat homes when the power goes out. Portable heaters were second. These are not careless people. These are people trying to get warm.
The part most people get wrong. CPSC states plainly that opening doors and windows or running a fan to ventilate is inadequate and unsafe, and that even with a CO alarm you should never run a generator or burn charcoal inside. Ventilation does not solve this. There is no safe way to do any of the three above.
If a CO alarm sounds, or anybody is confused, dizzy, nauseous or unusually sleepy: get everyone outside into fresh air and ring 911. Then ring us. Not the other way round. 703.225.8222 will still be here in five minutes.
Figures and wording from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission: Stay Safe While Staying Warm This Winter (2024 report on non fire CO deaths), hazards from furnaces, space heaters and fireplaces, and never use charcoal grills indoors. See also CDC on avoiding carbon monoxide poisoning. We are a heating contractor rather than a medical or emergency authority, so for an actual emergency the number is 911.
Four Things Worth Doing While You Wait for Us
All free, all quick, and the first one is the one nobody knows about.
Clear the snow off the outside vent
CPSC calls this out specifically. A blocked flue or intake on a high efficiency furnace pushes combustion gases back into the house. Two minutes with a broom, and it is the most useful thing on this list.
Check the CO alarms are alive
Press the test button on each one. If you do not have one outside every sleeping area, that is the thing to buy tonight rather than a space heater.
Open the cabinet doors under sinks
Especially on outside walls. It lets warm air at the pipes, and a burst pipe will cost you far more than the repair you are already waiting for.
Find your water shutoff before you need it
While the house is still warm enough to go looking. If a pipe does let go at three in the morning, knowing where the valve is changes everything.
When a Falls Church Home Loses Heat
A no heat call in January is not a scheduling problem, it is a house getting colder by the hour with pipes in the walls. These are what we fix and what we look at first.
No heat furnace repair
Ignition faults, flame sensors, gas valves and lockouts, diagnosed rather than guessed at.
After hours, weekends and holidays
Heating does not fail on a schedule. Falls Church and the rest of Fairfax County, day or night.
Heat pump not heating
Including the ones that are working correctly and only feel like they are not, which is a call worth making before you pay for anything.
Short cycling or will not ignite
Both usually point somewhere specific, and both get worse if the system is left to keep trying.
Thermostat and no signal faults
Sometimes the cheapest fix in the building, and always worth ruling out first.
Gas safety and lockout shutdowns
If your system has locked itself out, it did that for a reason. We find the reason before we reset anything.
Why Falls Church Homeowners Call Us
Licensed for the heating and the electrical
Virginia contractor license 2705181607 covers both. A great many no heat calls turn out to be a circuit, a transformer or a control board, and we are not obliged to hand half the job to somebody else.
Falls Church is home
Our office is on West Broad Street. This is not a franchise dispatching from another county.
Diagnosed before it is quoted
You get told what is wrong and what the options cost, including when the honest answer is that it can wait until morning at a lower rate.
If the fault is electrical, we fix that too
Rather than diagnosing it, charging you for the visit, and telling you to call an electrician.
Financing is available on request, and the veteran discount program applies.

How much does emergency furnace repair cost in Falls Church, VA?
There is no flat fee, because the price depends on what failed. We start with a diagnostic, then give you a firm, upfront price before any repair begins, so there are no surprise charges. Common fixes like an ignitor, flame sensor, capacitor, or blower motor are modest, while a major part such as a heat exchanger or compressor costs more. Either way you approve the price first, and we never upsell.
My furnace is blowing cold air or will not turn on, what should I check first?
Before you call, check a few quick things in your Falls Church home: make sure the thermostat is set to heat with good batteries, look for a tripped breaker, confirm the furnace power switch is on, and check that the filter is not completely clogged. If the system still will not heat, call us. One safety note: if you smell gas or a carbon monoxide alarm sounds, do not keep resetting the furnace, leave the home and call from outside.
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Yes. PRO Electric plus HVAC holds Virginia license number 2705181607 and is fully bonded and insured. Your repair is handled by a licensed, insured technician, and we offer veteran and military discounts as a thank you for your service.
