HVAC Repair in Boston, MA
Looking for hvac repair in Boston? Settlyfe lets you skip the phone tag — answer a short intake about the job, see an upfront quote, and book a vetted independent pro, all online and tracked in your Settlyfe portal.
Settlyfe handles heating and cooling problems from diagnosis to done: systems that won't heat or cool, strange noises or smells, thermostat issues, filter replacement, duct and vent cleaning, and routine tune-ups. Pros work on gas, propane, oil, electric, and heat pump systems, whether the unit sits in a basement, closet, garage, attic, or on a rooftop.
Booking starts with a short intake about your system — what's wrong, how it's powered, how old it is, and how many units or zones you have. Those answers produce an upfront quote you see before you book, so there's no waiting on callbacks to learn what the visit will cost. Some jobs, like full system replacements, larger multi-zone setups, rooftop units, and very large properties, are scoped with an in-person quote instead so the number is accurate.
Once you book, the job is dispatched to a vetted service pro and you can follow progress in your customer portal. If the pro finds work beyond the original scope, nothing extra is charged until you approve the change. Same-day and emergency after-hours visits are available when a broken system can't wait.

HVAC Repair FAQs
What affects the price of an HVAC visit?
The intake asks about the type of service, how the system is powered, its age, the number of units or zones, where the unit is located, property size, and how urgent the job is. Those answers set the quote you see before booking.
Do I see the price before I book?
Yes. The intake produces an upfront quote before you commit. A few job types can't be priced accurately from a form — full system replacements, systems with 4 or more zones, rooftop units, and properties over 4,000 sq ft — so those are set up as in-person quotes instead.
Can I get someone out the same day or after hours?
Yes. The intake lets you choose standard scheduling (within a few days), same-day, or emergency after-hours service. After-hours availability depends on pro availability at booking time.
What if I smell gas?
Leave the building immediately and call 911 first. If you flag a gas, propane, or oil system during booking, we route you toward emergency help rather than a standard appointment.
My AC runs but cools weakly, or there's ice on the lines. What happens?
The intake asks about exactly this. Weak cooling or iced-over lines can point to refrigerant work, so it's noted on your job and the pro confirms what's actually needed on-site before doing it.
I rent my home. Can I still book HVAC service?
Yes. The intake asks whether you own, rent with landlord permission, rent and still need permission, or manage the property, so the job is set up correctly for your situation.
What if the pro finds a bigger problem once they're on-site?
Any work beyond the original scope requires your approval before there's any extra charge. You review the change in your customer portal and decide.
Do you handle full system replacements?
Yes. Because replacements depend on equipment and site conditions, they're scoped with an in-person quote rather than an instant online price.
