Your heating and cooling system shouldn’t be something you worry about. When it’s working right, you forget it’s even there.
That’s what proper HVAC service gets you. No more wondering if your furnace will start on the coldest January morning. No more sweating through July because your AC decided to quit during a heat wave.
You get consistent temperatures, lower energy bills, and the peace of mind that comes with knowing your system is maintained by people who actually know what they’re doing. Your family stays comfortable, and you stop throwing money away on emergency repairs that could have been prevented.
We’ve been keeping Inglenook homes comfortable for years at Temp Assure Heating Air Conditioning & Refrigeration. We understand what Connecticut weather throws at your HVAC system.
Our technicians are licensed, insured, and trained on the equipment in your home. We show up when we say we will, give you straight answers about what needs fixing, and charge exactly what we quote upfront.
We’re not the cheapest option in town, and that’s intentional. You’re paying for technicians who diagnose problems correctly the first time, use quality parts that last, and stand behind their work.
When you call us, we schedule a time that works for you. Our technician arrives on time, diagnoses the problem, and explains what’s wrong in plain English.
You get an upfront price before any work starts. No surprises, no hidden fees, no pressure to buy things you don’t need. If you approve the work, we fix it right and test everything to make sure it’s working properly.
For maintenance visits, we inspect your entire system, clean what needs cleaning, replace filters, and catch small problems before they become expensive ones. You get a clear report of what we found and recommendations for keeping your system running efficiently.

We handle everything your HVAC system needs. Furnace repair when your heating stops working on the coldest day of the year. Air conditioning service before summer hits so you’re not waiting in line with everyone else.
Regular maintenance that keeps your system running efficiently and catches problems early. Emergency service when something breaks at the worst possible time. And honest advice about when to repair versus replace equipment.
Connecticut’s climate is hard on HVAC systems. Harsh winters strain heating equipment, while humid summers work air conditioning units overtime. We understand these local challenges and maintain systems accordingly, using our knowledge of how Connecticut weather affects different equipment types.
Your heating system should be serviced every fall before cold weather hits, and your air conditioning should be serviced every spring before you need it. Connecticut’s extreme temperature swings put extra stress on HVAC equipment.
Fall heating maintenance includes checking your furnace or heat pump, cleaning components, testing safety systems, and replacing filters. Spring cooling maintenance involves cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, testing electrical connections, and ensuring proper airflow.
This schedule catches problems before they cause breakdowns during the seasons when you need your system most. It also keeps your equipment running efficiently, which saves money on energy bills and extends the life of your system.
Call us for service immediately if your system won’t turn on, makes loud grinding or banging noises, or produces strange smells. These often indicate serious problems that can cause expensive damage if ignored.
Other urgent signs include uneven heating or cooling throughout your home, dramatically higher energy bills, or frequent cycling on and off. Poor air quality, excessive dust, or humidity problems also suggest your system isn’t working properly.
Don’t wait on these issues, especially during extreme weather. What starts as a minor problem can quickly become a complete system failure, leaving you without heat or cooling when you need it most.
If your system is over 15 years old and needs a major repair costing more than half the price of replacement, it’s usually time to replace it. Older systems are less efficient and more likely to need additional repairs.
Consider replacement if you’re dealing with frequent breakdowns, dramatically higher energy bills, or if your system can’t maintain comfortable temperatures. Modern equipment is significantly more efficient than systems installed even 10 years ago.
We’ll give you honest recommendations based on your system’s condition, repair costs, and potential energy savings. Sometimes a repair makes sense, sometimes replacement is the better investment. We explain both options so you can make the right decision for your situation.
Service calls typically range from $150-300 depending on the complexity of the diagnosis and any minor repairs needed. Major repairs can range from $300-1500, while system replacement starts around $3000 for basic units.
Maintenance agreements usually cost $150-250 annually and include tune-ups for both heating and cooling systems. These agreements often include discounts on repairs and priority service during busy seasons.
We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you know exactly what you’ll pay. Emergency service outside normal business hours carries additional charges, but we’re clear about those costs when you call.
Yes, we provide emergency service for heating failures during cold weather and cooling system breakdowns during heat waves. We understand that some HVAC problems can’t wait for regular business hours.
Emergency service is available evenings, weekends, and holidays when your comfort and safety are at risk. We prioritize calls based on severity, with heating failures in winter and cooling failures during extreme heat getting fastest response.
Emergency service rates are higher than regular service calls, but we’re upfront about pricing when you call. We’d rather have you comfortable and safe than trying to tough it out through extreme weather without proper heating or cooling.
Start with regular filter changes every 1-3 months depending on your filter type and home conditions. Dirty filters force your system to work harder and reduce efficiency significantly.
Keep vents and registers clean and unblocked by furniture or curtains. Seal air leaks around windows, doors, and ductwork to prevent conditioned air from escaping. A programmable thermostat can also reduce energy usage when you’re away from home.
Regular professional maintenance is the most important step for efficiency. Clean coils, proper refrigerant levels, and well-lubricated components help your system run at peak performance. We can also identify ductwork problems or equipment issues that waste energy.
