Do you service emergencies after-hours?

Yes, we offer emergency services 24-hours a day, year-round.

How much will my service cost?

The size and complexity of your HVAC issue will determine the cost. Because our trained, licensed HVAC technicians must diagnose the issue before we are able to quote you an accurate cost, we require an appointment to be set to complete a diagnostic on your system. Once the diagnostic is complete, your One Hour(R) technician will walk you through all costs using our Straightforward Pricing(R) Guide so there are never any surprise fees.

How often should I service my HVAC system?

It's ideal to service your cooling system each spring and your heating system each fall to ensure you find small issues before they become big problems.

How often do I need to change my HVAC filter?

Your filter should be changed every one to three months, depending on conditions in your home and your region's climate.

Do you offer purchase financing?

We work built relationships with several lenders to ensure our customers are able to restore comfort in their homes. Ask your technician about your financing options.

What are the advantages of a smart Thermostat?

Smart thermostats learn a household's patterns and adjust heating and cooling according to when a home is occupied, give homeowners the ability to control the thermostat remotely, and enable homeowners to reduce their energy use, saving you money.

HVAC means Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning. HVAC systems refer to air conditioners, furnaces, and any unit that cools indoor spaces during the summer and warm them in the winter. In general, an HVAC system takes in air, heats or cools that air, and blows it into a room or any indoor space. While many homes have separate air conditioning and heating units, others have a heat pump that cools and heats the house. Not only do HVAC systems maintain desired temperatures, but they also improve indoor air quality and regulate humidity levels. But most importantly, these units provide comfort all year round.

What is a SEER Rating?

The SEER (seasonal energy efficiency ratio) is a measure of the efficiency of your heating and cooling system.The higher the SEER rating, the more efficiently a unit operates. The SEER rating of any given unit can range anywhere from 13 to 21.

“Cody, Joe and Payton were all great. Very friendly and professional. My outlets needed to be added on the wall not in it and it all looks great. I’m very happy with the work that was done. I’ve been needing electrical outlets in this room for years!!! I would recommend them. I may have other jobs for them as well.”

“After having several bad experiences with other providers, Kenny was honest, fair and quick to diagnose and solve my AC issue. Super appreciative of the fast response and honest guidance. He was willing to walk me through everything that he was doing.”

“Had replacement thermostat installed. On Thursday July 3rd, 2025 Javier was very knowledgeable, professional, forthright and personable. He did a great job and also checked my AC while he was here. Would certainly recommend him as a tech for others. Thermostat price and installation seemed a bit on the high side as I could have purchased the same thermostat at one of the big box stores for a lot less. But I've used 1-Hour Heating several times in the past, and I've always been pleased with their work and the techs' professionalism.”

“Bobby Pence was very knowledgeable about the AC unit. He gave great tips on the upkeep of the unit and things that would help with the longevity of it. He was very transparent and upfront with every question I had and didn't try to sell me things but he did recommend what should be done. There was no sales pressure at all or " oh you need a new unit right away " he took the time and effort into teaching me about everything he was doing. If I have to call One Hour again I'm going to try to request him personally and if it's not an emergency I'll wait for him to be available to come out.”

“Could not have been a better experience. Our AC went out the day before the Fourth of July, and I was convinced we’d go the long weekend at least until someone could come. One Hour came out within 2 hours, took their time and were thorough with looking at the interior and exterior units, researched what was available and told us our options. They had the part we needed, installed it in 15 minutes, and our AC was back on, at a very reasonable price. I am so very pleased and thankful I called them, and they will be our go-to repair company in the future.”
