Call (845) 630-1373 any time — nights, weekends and holidays included.

Emergency HVAC Services
Emergency Heating Repair
Our technicians handle emergency furnace and heating repair, boiler repair, and service on heat pumps and ductless mini-splits. We arrive with the parts and tools needed to complete most repairs in a single visit, so you spend less time in a cold house. If your system can't be repaired safely, we'll walk you through your heating replacement options and help you stay warm in the meantime.
Emergency AC Repair
A failed air conditioner during a Hudson Valley heat wave is more than uncomfortable. Upstairs bedrooms can become unsafe for kids, older family members and pets. We provide around-the-clock AC repair for central air, heat pumps and ductless systems, from failed capacitors and frozen coils to refrigerant leaks and compressor problems.
What to Do While You Wait
A few quick checks can sometimes restore your system, and they help our technician diagnose the problem faster if they don't:
- Check the thermostat. Make sure it's set to Heat (or Cool), the set point is a few degrees past the room temperature, and the batteries are fresh.
- Check the filter. A badly clogged filter can cause a furnace to overheat and shut itself off.
- Leave boiler pressure alone. Don't add water or open valves on a boiler yourself. Tell us what the gauge reads when you call.
- Protect your pipes. If the heat is out in freezing weather, open the cabinet doors under sinks on outside walls and let faucets drip. If a pipe has already burst, our emergency plumbing team is available 24/7 too.

Emergency HVAC FAQ
Is no heat considered an emergency?
Yes, especially when outdoor temperatures are near or below freezing, or when someone in the home is very young, elderly or has health concerns. A house without heat can also lead to frozen pipes. Call us any time, day or night.
Do you offer emergency HVAC service on weekends and holidays?
Yes. Folkes Brothers offers true 24/7 emergency service, including weekends and holidays.
My furnace keeps shutting off after a few minutes. Is that an emergency?
If it's keeping your home from staying warm, yes. Short-cycling is often caused by a dirty flame sensor, a clogged filter or an overheating limit switch. Learn more on our furnace and heating repair page.
Should I repair or replace my system after an emergency breakdown?
It depends on the age of the system, the cost of the repair and how often it has failed. We'll give you an honest comparison on the spot. If replacement makes more sense, see our heating installation and AC installation options.
