Join Frosty ClubWhat Counts as an HVAC Emergency in Keller?
Some HVAC problems can wait until tomorrow. Others can't. Here's how I triage emergency calls in Keller — and what to do in each case.
No cooling, 95°F+ summer
Real emergency when elderly, infants, or anyone with medical conditions is in the house. DFW summer heat kills. Move family to coolest room, run fans, stay hydrated, call us immediately.
No heat, below 35°F
Emergency for elderly, infants, and pipe-freeze risk. Usually ignitor, flame sensor, gas valve, or pressure switch. $400-$1,200 range. Same-visit fix when parts are in stock.
Gas smell
LIFE SAFETY. Leave the house immediately, call Atmos Energy 866-322-8667 from outside, then 911. Do not flip switches. Once gas is shut off, call us to diagnose the source and repair.
CO alarm sounding
LIFE SAFETY. Leave the house, call 911 from outside. Usually a cracked heat exchanger (full furnace replacement, we NEVER repair) or vent leak (repairable). Never run the furnace until cleared.
Water leaking from air handler
Clogged condensate drain triggered the safety switch — or the pan overflowed and water is dripping from the ceiling. Shut off the breaker. Call us. Drain clearing runs $350 ($297.50 members).
Electrical burning smell
Shut off the breaker immediately. Usually a failing contactor, blower motor, or wire connection. Do NOT run the system until we diagnose. Repair is $500-$1,500 range.
Why KellerHomeowners Call Frosty's for Emergencies
Keller emergency calls cluster in three windows: the first 100°F+ stretch of summer (mid-June through July), the first hard freeze of winter (usually mid-December), and any thunderstorm event that knocks capacitors out across Tarrant County. We're about 35 minutes from Keller from our Farmers Branch shop, so emergency response takes a little more planning than an Irving or Coppell call — we try to prioritize Keller calls when dispatch routing allows. Frosty Club members get first priority, and on dual-zone homes where one side is still running, we'll triage and get to total-failure homes first. Call (469) 254-0548 and a human answers; we don't use answering services.
Here's what actually counts as an emergency worth a same-day call in Keller: AC fully down when it's 95°F+ and you have kids, pets, or elderly family (especially in 3,500+ sqft two-story homes where one failed zone can make half the house unlivable); heat fully down when it's below freezing; water pooling from an upstairs air handler onto a ceiling (clogged condensate drain); burning smell or smoke from any part of the system; suspected gas leak (call 911 and gas company first); CO detector going off near the furnace. If both zones are still running and only one is struggling, we can usually save you money by scheduling for tomorrow at regular rates.
Emergency diagnostic is the same $85 flat rate as a scheduled call, waived with any repair. We do not charge emergency surcharges — flat-rate means flat-rate. After-hours service (before 7 AM or after 8 PM) runs $250 for non-members, $212.50 for Frosty Club Basic members, and Premium members pay the regular $85 with no overtime. Keller's 35-minute drive from Farmers Branch means after-hours response times typically land 1.5-2 hours from the call — longer than a Farmers Branch or Coppell emergency, but honest. The phone number is (469) 254-0548 — that rings to Omar or Mariafernanda directly, not a call center.

Emergency HVAC FAQ for Keller, TX
Do you offer 24/7 emergency HVAC in Keller?
We offer emergency response during peak heat and cold seasons, and after-hours diagnostic/repair year-round. After-hours call (before 7 AM or after 8 PM) is $250 for non-members, $212.50 for Basic members, and waived to the regular $85 for Premium members. Because Keller is 35 minutes from our shop, after-hours response usually lands 1.5-2 hours from the call. We prioritize no-heat situations in freezes and no-AC situations over 95°F. Call (469) 254-0548.
What counts as an HVAC emergency in Keller?
True emergencies: AC fully down over 95°F with vulnerable family members, heat fully down below freezing, water dripping from the ceiling (clogged upstairs condensate drain), burning smell or visible smoke, gas smell (call gas company first), or CO detector alarm near the furnace. On a dual-zone Keller home where one side is still running, we can usually schedule next-day at regular rates and save you the after-hours fee.
How fast can you get to Keller in an emergency?
We're about 35 minutes from Keller at our Farmers Branch shop, so emergency response during business hours is typically within 1.5-2 hours for Frosty Club members (priority scheduling) and 3-4 hours for non-members during peak weeks. After-hours response is usually within 2 hours. We're honest about the drive — we don't promise a 30-minute ETA we can't keep. A human answers our phone.
Do you charge emergency surcharges in Keller?
No. We're flat-rate, which means flat-rate. Diagnostic is $85 during business hours (waived with repair), and $250 after-hours ($212.50 for Basic members, $85 for Premium members). Repair prices don't change based on time of day — a capacitor is $500 at 2 PM or 2 AM. No 35-mile surcharge, no heat-wave premium, no weekend markup.
My upstairs air handler is leaking water onto my Keller ceiling — is this an emergency?
Yes, treat it as urgent. In Keller's 3,500+ sqft two-story homes, the upstairs air handler typically sits in the attic directly above a bedroom or hallway, and a clogged condensate drain can drop water onto drywall fast. We clear the drain ($350, $297.50 for members) and install a float switch ($400) to prevent a repeat. Left alone, a clog causes drywall damage, mold growth, and ruined attic insulation. Call (469) 254-0548.
