Greeley HVAC Company | Greeley Furnace & Air Conditioning Repair

My name is Barb Mathewes, my husband Harvey and I own Tri County Heating and Cooling. We have been providing HVAC service to northern Colorado communities for over a decade. We are family owned business and we are proud to live and work in Greeley. Our mission is to provide honest high quality HVAC repair and installation services. We take the honest part very seriously and that is what makes us different. Our team doesn't consist of sales guys trying to turn a sale. In fact we don't have any sales guys on staff at all.  We are all trained technicians who take the time to listen to your issues and give you options.

Cooling & Air Conditioning Services

When your vents start spitting out warm air, or you have no airflow, it’s pretty clear something’s wrong with your air conditioner. Other signs of AC trouble can be less clear-cut. Knowing how to recognize a need for AC repair will prevent continued system damage and more expensive repairs.

Call us for AC repair if you notice:

  • Weak airflow from vents
  • Frequent cycling on and off
  • The thermostat temperature isn’t reached or maintained
  • Bad odors
  • Refrigerant leaks
  • Loud or unusual noises or vibrations
  • Frozen evaporator coils
  • Poor indoor air quality

Most of these signs point to common issues that are easily repaired. However, if your air conditioner is over 10 years old, needs a major component replacement, or the necessary repairs would be too expensive to be cost-effective, your technician will talk to you about air conditioner replacement.

Furnace & Heating Services

If you are in need of furnace repair, we can help you diagnose and quickly resolve your problem. Repairing a furnace comes with a lot of potential hazards, so most repair work should be done by professionals.

However, having a basic working knowledge of common furnace problems and repairs can help you determine when it is time to call a furnace repair expert. If these fixes seem beyond your ability, be sure to contact Tri County Heating & Cooling. We can help!

    • General Maintenance. This may go without saying, but preventing problems can save you a lot of time and money by avoiding expensive furnace repairs. Every year, take the the time to vacuum around the blower. Slide out the fan unit and clean each blade. Apply a few drops of non-detergent motor-oil to the oil ports if your furnace has them. A small bit of maintenance can go a long way. You can also ask us about our regular maintenance plans so that we can help ensure that your HVAC system is running properly and efficiently before the heating or cooling season begins.
    • Gas Leaks. If you smell natural gas in your home or near your HVAC Unit, you must address this immediately! This is not a furnace repair you can handle yourself! Do not turn on any switches, use electrical appliances, or light any matches. If the odor is strong, evacuate the house and leave doors and windows open. If you know where your gas supply valve is located, turn the valve until it is perpendicular to the supply line to turn the gas off. Then, call your gas utility or fire department as soon as possible. Do not re-enter your home until you know it is safe.
    • Pilot Light is not Lit. Older furnaces have pilot lights and some newer ones have electric ignitions. If your pilot light will not stay lit, it is often because the thermocouple is loose, the pilot orifice is clogged, or the pilot flame is set to low. The thermocouple sends a signal to the furnace to burn the gas fuel being released into the appliance. Replacing or adjusting the thermocouple is usually best left to a professional HVAC company. Pilot light orifices can be cleared with a small piece of wire, but be sure to turn off the gas to the unit and shut off the circuit breaker before attempting this furnace repair. To adjust the pilot flame, consult your furnace manual and locate the pilot light adjustment screw to achieve a full, steady 1 ½ to 2 inch blue flame.
    • Electronic Ignition Furnace will not Light. Modern systems often have an electronic ignition system rather than a pilot light. The first step to repair the electronic ignition on a HVAC is to test it by turning down the thermostat and then turning it back on again and listen for the sound of the spark produced by the ignition system. Next, check the furnace's flame sensor and clean it with a piece of emery paper. If you are unsure where to find it, consult your furnace manual. If your heating system still will not ignite, it is time to call a furnace repair expert.
    • Not Enough Heat. If your HVAC is running but does not provide enough heat, check to make sure that nothing is blocking the flow of heat into your home and that the heat registers in each room is open. Next, check to make sure the thermostat is set to "heat” and that the fan is set to “on” or “auto.” Finally, check your air filter – a dirty filter can reduce efficiency and decrease the life-span or your heater, making replacement or costly furnace repair a necessity.
    • Furnace does not turn on. Most heating system failures can be traced back to the thermostat or a tripped breaker. First, check the thermostat to be sure that is is set to “heat.” Next, check the circuit breaker that feeds your furnace and be sure that it has not been tripped. If so, reset the breaker. Also, check the furnace's power switch to be sure that it has not accidentally been switched off. It's possible that the furnace's motor needs to be reset due to an electrical overload. Consult your manual for the location of the reset button and press it. If nothing happens, wait for a half hour until the motor cools and try again. If none of these solutions work, call Tri County and we will connect you with a furnace repair expert.
    • Furnace does not blow air. If your HVAC runs but the blower does not move air, it is likely that the belt on the blower is in need of repair. Replacing the belt is usually an easy fix. Consult your manual for replacement instructions and be sure to replace the belt with another that has the exact same belt number.
    • Blower runs continuously. This is usually caused by the thermostat or the limit switch located on the HVAC system. First, check the thermostat to see if the fan switch has been turned on. If so, switch it to "off" or "auto". If the thermostat is already set to auto, then your limit switch must be adjusted and this is best done by a furnace repair expert.
They were fantastic. Made sure to get to us as quickly as possible and it was cold and we were without heat. Offered to drive us some space heaters to keep us warm the evening prior to our install. Nice and professional.
