Kenosha HVAC Company handles heating and cooling repair, service, and installation for homes and businesses across Kenosha. Whether the call is about a furnace that stopped working in January or a central air system that quit on the first hot week of summer, we cover the full range: AC repair, furnace repair, heat pump service, full system replacement, ductwork, thermostats, indoor air quality, and emergency HVAC calls.
What the thermostat is telling you is a good place to start. A reading that does not match what the house feels like, a system that runs but does not condition the air, a unit that clicks on and then shuts right back off - each of those points toward something specific, and the right call gets it scoped before anyone is scheduled.

Ready for your system. Call now.
Some homes need a full system replacement. Others just need a tune-up.
We work across the full scope of residential and commercial heating and cooling: AC repair and service, furnace repair and service, heat pump repair and installation, full system installation and replacement, mini-split and ductless systems, thermostat and smart-control installation, ductwork repair and sealing, indoor air quality and air filtration, seasonal maintenance, and emergency service. If it conditions the air in a building, we handle it.
That goes for commercial properties too. Offices, retail spaces, and light commercial buildings in Kenosha County have the same heating and cooling needs as homes, and the same urgency when something goes wrong. Equipment sized for the space rather than for the last unit is what actually solves the problem, whether the building is a ranch house or a 4,000-square-foot retail floor.
We'll handle the system so you don't have to.
Whether this is your first HVAC repair or your tenth, the symptoms tend to follow a pattern. The AC is not cooling. It is blowing warm or hot air. The unit will not turn on. Some rooms are cold and others never cool down no matter how long the system runs.
A diagnostic visit works through the likely causes in order: refrigerant charge, condenser and evaporator coil condition, blower motor and capacitor function, and airflow through the duct system. The goal is to find what is actually wrong before anything is quoted, not to replace parts and see what happens. The system is checked before parts are quoted, and the price is confirmed before anything is scheduled. Callers get the rate on the phone.
Kenosha's cooling season is short, which means when the AC goes down, there is not much time to wait it out. One call is all it takes to get it looked at.
Furnace not working. Furnace blowing cold air. A banging or rattling noise that was not there last winter. No heat in the house on a night when the temperature drops into the single digits. These are the calls that cannot wait, and they are the calls we take seriously.
A heating visit covers the components that fail most often: the ignitor, flame sensor, heat exchanger, blower motor, and control board. We also confirm that the thermostat signal is actually reaching the unit, because a wiring issue or a failed thermostat can look exactly like a furnace problem until you check.
Boiler repair and hydronic and radiant heat service are part of the heating scope as well. Whether the system runs on forced air or circulates hot water through the floors or baseboards, we work on it. Emergency no-heat and no-cool calls are taken seriously. We are available every day from 9:00 AM to 8:30 PM, including weekends.
A quick tune-up and a full system swap are two different jobs, and so are a heat pump repair and a heat pump installation. We handle both sides.
On the repair side, the common calls are a heat pump that is not heating, a unit blowing cold air when it should be in heat mode, or a system that runs but cannot keep up with the load. On the installation side, we size and install heat pump systems for homes and commercial properties, including ductless mini-split systems for spaces where running ductwork is not practical.
Mini-split not cooling. Mini-split not heating. Ductless unit making noise or cycling on and off without conditioning the air. These are all jobs we diagnose and repair. A heat pump's performance in a Wisconsin winter comes down to correct sizing and the right cold-climate rating, which connects directly to the installation work covered in the section below.
Call and we'll get your heat or AC back on.
Kenosha County winters are long and cold, with lake-effect influence from Lake Michigan that can push temperatures well below freezing for extended stretches. A heating system here carries a heavier load than it would in a milder climate, and the right equipment choice, sized and installed correctly, is what determines whether a home stays warm when it matters most.
Gas and propane forced-air furnaces are the primary heating system in most Kenosha homes, and a Wisconsin winter tests them hard. On the repair side, the failures that show up most often are a cracked or dirty ignitor, a fouled flame sensor, a worn blower motor, or a control board that has stopped reading signals correctly. On the replacement side, the question is whether the cost of repair still makes sense relative to the age and condition of the unit, and what the right size is for the space being heated.
We tell you if a permit is needed. We size the system to the home. We explain the options.
A standard heat pump loses efficiency quickly once outdoor temperatures drop below freezing. A cold-climate heat pump is rated to extract usable heat from outdoor air at temperatures well below that, with some units rated down to roughly -15 degrees Fahrenheit. That rating matters in a market where January lows in Kenosha regularly fall into the single digits.
Correct sizing and equipment selection are what determine whether a heat pump performs through a full Wisconsin winter or falls short when the load peaks. We scope the installation on the call and confirm what the job involves before anything is scheduled.
Forced-air heating is efficient, but it dries the indoor air. In Kenosha, where the heating season runs for months, that dryness adds up: dry skin, static electricity, wood floors and trim that shrink and gap, and a house that feels colder than the thermostat reads because dry air holds less heat.
A whole-home humidifier integrates with the furnace and ductwork to maintain a consistent relative humidity level throughout the house. Unlike a portable unit that covers one room, it works with the air distribution system already in place. It is a natural complement to a furnace replacement or a seasonal tune-up, and the installation is typically straightforward on a forced-air system.
When the job is done, we leave your home clean and comfortable, and that means looking at the full system, not just the unit.
Ductwork that leaks wastes conditioned air before it reaches the room. Uneven temperatures from room to room, high energy use, and rooms that never quite reach the set temperature are all signs worth checking. Duct sealing and duct repair address the distribution side of the problem. For system upgrades or new installations, we also handle ductwork installation and replacement.
Thermostats are often the first place to look when a system seems to be misbehaving. A thermostat that is not responding, not holding temperature, or not communicating with the unit can cause symptoms that look like a mechanical failure. Smart thermostat installation and programmable thermostat setup are straightforward jobs that can also improve how the system runs day to day.
Indoor air quality comes down to what the air handler and blower are circulating through the house. Air filtration installation, whole-home air purifiers, and air handler service all affect what the system is actually delivering, not just whether it is heating or cooling.
A tune-up on the AC side covers coil cleaning, refrigerant charge check, capacitor test, and airflow confirmation through the duct system. On the heating side, it covers heat exchanger inspection, ignitor test, blower cleaning, and flue check. The goal is to catch what is wearing out before it fails during the first cold snap or the first heat wave of the season.
Scheduling before the season starts is the practical move. The backlog that builds when temperatures swing is real, and a system that was checked in September or April is less likely to go down in October or July. The job is understood before anyone is scheduled, which means the visit is focused and the time is used well.
When you call, the scope of the job is discussed on the phone. A price is confirmed before anything is scheduled, and you are told what the visit covers. Pricing varies by job type: diagnostic, repair, installation, and tune-up are all different conversations, and the rate for each is given on the call.
Commercial customers work the same way. A property manager calling about a rooftop unit, a business owner with a system that quit overnight, a landlord dealing with a no-heat complaint from a tenant: the call goes the same direction. The job is scoped, the price is confirmed, and the visit is scheduled.
We find it. We fix it. We test the airflow.
We serve Kenosha and the surrounding communities throughout Kenosha County. That includes Racine, Pleasant Prairie, Somers, Bristol, Salem Lakes, Twin Lakes, Paddock Lake, and Zion on the Illinois border. If you are in the area and need heating or cooling work, call and we will confirm coverage on the call.
A visit covers whatever the job requires: diagnosis, repair, replacement, or a seasonal tune-up, depending on what you called about. Before anyone is scheduled, the scope is confirmed on the phone so you know what the visit includes and what it costs. We handle AC repair, furnace repair, heat pump service, ductwork, thermostats, indoor air quality, and full system installation across Kenosha and Kenosha County.
Call (262) 459-8289 and describe what the system is doing.
We scope the job on the call, confirm the price, and then schedule the visit. You get the rate before anyone is sent out, and you know what the visit covers before it starts.
Check the thermostat first: confirm it is set to heat, the temperature is set above the current room temperature, and the fan is set to auto rather than on.
If the thermostat looks correct and the furnace still will not fire, call (262) 459-8289.
We take emergency no-heat calls seriously and are available every day from 9:00 AM to 8:30 PM, including weekends.
A system blowing warm air from the cooling vents, a furnace that starts and shuts off within a minute or two, unusual banging or rattling from the unit, or a house that will not reach the set temperature despite the system running constantly are all signs worth acting on. Any of those symptoms points toward a specific component, and the longer the system runs in a failed state, the more stress it puts on the parts around the failure. Call and describe what you are seeing, and we will tell you how quickly the situation needs to be addressed.
Yes, and older homes in Kenosha are a regular part of the work. Systems that were undersized at installation, equipment that has been patched repeatedly, and homes where the ductwork has never been checked are all situations we work through. The job gets scoped on the call so you have a clear picture of what is there and what the options are before anything is scheduled.
The call covers what the system is doing, what the visit will include, and what it will cost. Once the scope and price are confirmed, the visit is scheduled. There is no ambiguity about what you are agreeing to before the technician arrives.
The price is confirmed before anyone is scheduled, and the visit covers what was agreed on the call. If the diagnostic turns up something that changes the scope, that is explained before any additional work starts. We do not begin work outside the agreed scope without talking to you first.
A repair makes sense when the equipment is in reasonable condition and the cost of fixing the problem is proportionate to what the system has left in it. Replacement makes more sense when repair costs are stacking up, the equipment is old enough that another failure is likely soon, or the system can no longer keep up with the load. We explain both options on the call so you can make the decision with a clear picture of what each path involves.
Yes, commercial and property management calls follow the same process as residential: the job is scoped on the phone, the price is confirmed, and the visit is scheduled. Rental units that lose heat in January need a fast answer on cost and a clear scope, and we handle those calls the same way we handle any no-heat situation. If you manage multiple properties in the Kenosha area, call and we will talk through how to handle recurring service needs.
The most useful information is what the system is doing, what it is not doing, and roughly how old the equipment is. If there has been recent service or a known issue, that helps too. The more detail you can give on the call, the more accurate the scope and the price will be before anyone is scheduled.
We cover the full range: AC repair and service, furnace repair and service, heat pump repair and installation, mini-split and ductless systems, boiler service, ductwork, thermostats, indoor air quality, and seasonal maintenance. If it conditions the air in a home or commercial building in Kenosha County, it falls within what we do.
Kenosha HVAC Company is available every day from 9:00 AM to 8:30 PM. Whether the job is a repair, a replacement, a seasonal tune-up, or an emergency no-heat call, the right first step is the same.

Heating and cooling work in Kenosha covers a wide range of jobs, from a furnace that won't fire on a January morning to a full system swap before a tenant moves in. We scope every job on the call before anyone is scheduled, so you know what the visit covers and what it costs. The table below lays out what each service includes, who it fits best, and what is worth knowing before you call.
| HVAC Service | What the Service Includes | Common Needs | Things to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cold-Climate Heat Pump Installation |
| Homeowners considering a system that handles both heating and cooling through a full Kenosha winter | Variable-speed cold-climate heat pumps are now rated to operate well below freezing. The electrical circuit and disconnect are handled by an electrician. |
| Indoor Air Quality & Air Filtration |
| Households concerned about dust, allergens, or air quality in a tightly sealed home | An undersized or clogged filter makes the equipment work harder and circulates more particulates through the home |
| Ductwork Repair & Sealing |
| Homes with uneven temperatures room to room, or higher energy bills despite normal equipment operation | Sealing leaky ducts is one of the more cost-effective improvements on a forced-air system that has never had the ductwork checked |
| Furnace Repair & Replacement |
| Wisconsin homeowners facing a mid-winter furnace failure or a system that has been running up repair costs | Furnaces in Kenosha log far more run-hours per season than in milder climates, so components wear faster than the calendar suggests |
| AC Repair & Service |
| Homes where the AC is running but not cooling, or has stopped altogether | Catching a refrigerant or airflow problem before peak summer heat avoids a longer wait for parts and scheduling |
| Seasonal Maintenance & Tune-Ups |
| Homeowners who want to catch small problems before they become no-heat or no-cool calls | A fall tune-up before the first hard freeze costs far less than an emergency call in January |
| Heat Pump Repair & Service |
| Homes with an existing heat pump that is losing efficiency or not heating in cold weather | Airflow problems at the air handler can look like a refrigerant issue, so we check both before quoting any repair |
| Heating & Furnace Repair |
| Any home where the furnace is blowing cold air, short-cycling, or not starting | A furnace diagnostic works through components in sequence rather than replacing parts and waiting to see what changes |
| Whole-Home Humidifier Installation |
| Homes with forced-air furnaces where dry indoor air is a problem through the Wisconsin heating season | The water-line connection to the unit is handled by a plumber. We handle the humidifier and the duct connection. |
| Emergency HVAC Service |
| Any home or property where the system has failed entirely and the weather makes waiting unsafe | We scope the visit and confirm pricing on the call before dispatch, even on emergency calls |
| HVAC System Installation & Replacement |
| Homes or rental properties where the current system is past repair or no longer keeping up with the load | Equipment is sized for the space rather than for the last unit, which matters when the old system was undersized |
| Boiler & Hydronic Heating Service |
| Homes with radiant or hydronic heating where a zone has stopped responding or the boiler is losing pressure | Boiler work covers the space-heating side only. Domestic water heating is a separate trade. |
| Thermostat Installation & Smart Controls |
| Homeowners upgrading to a programmable or smart thermostat, or dealing with a thermostat reading the wrong temperature | A compatibility check before the swap avoids wiring mismatches that can cause the new thermostat to misread or not communicate with the equipment |
Every job is different, and the right answer for your home or property depends on what the system is actually doing. Call us at (262) 459-8289 and we will scope it on the call.
