Emergency HVAC Service in Colorado Springs

When your heating or cooling system fails in the shadow of Pikes Peak, it isn’t just an inconvenience—it’s a safety crisis. At 6,035 feet, Colorado Springs’ winters can turn dangerous in hours, and our thin air makes mechanical recovery difficult for standard contractors. At Ascent HVAC and Home Solutions, we provide 24/7 emergency HVAC repair in Colorado Springs, ensuring that your family is never left stranded by a system lockout.

Whether you are dealing with a furnace failure in Briargate, a frozen heat pump in Falcon, or an electrical emergency in the Old North End, our local technicians bring commercial-grade urgency to your residential crisis. We understand the specific codes of the Pikes Peak Regional Building Department (PPRBD) and the technical nuances of high-altitude combustion, allowing us to restore your comfort safely and permanently.

Colorado’s extreme weather swings—often dropping 40 degrees in a single evening—put immense pressure on your home’s infrastructure. Call us immediately if you experience:

• Zero Heat in Freezing Conditions: If your furnace fails when temperatures are below 32°F, your home faces immediate risk of frozen pipes and dangerous indoor conditions.

• The Smell of Burning or Smoke: Electrical odors or visible smoke from your vents indicate a severe fire hazard. Shut off your breaker and call us now.

• Gas Odors (Rotten Eggs): This indicates a possible gas leak. Evacuate your home immediately, call Colorado Springs Utilities at (719) 448-4800, and then call Ascent for the mechanical repair.

• Loud Banging or Screaming Noises: These sounds often signal a blower motor failure or a damaged compressor that could cause catastrophic system damage if not addressed.

• Total Cooling Loss During Heatwaves: For vulnerable residents (seniors, infants, or those with medical conditions), a lack of AC during a July heatwave is a health emergency.

A sea-level repair doesn’t work at 6,035 feet. Our emergency response is calibrated for the specific environment of El Paso County.

Most emergency furnace calls in the Springs are caused by “thin-air” ignition failure. Furnaces struggle to strike a flame when the oxygen-to-fuel ratio is off. Our emergency trucks are equipped with digital combustion analyzers to recalibrate your gas valve on the spot, ensuring your furnace stays lit even in the coldest mountain air.

The high-velocity “Chinook” winds common in Colorado Springs can blow out pilot lights or force debris into outdoor units. Our emergency repairs include a “weather-check” to ensure your system’s venting and outdoor components are hardened against the next wind event.
