Sometimes when your central heating and air conditioning system breaks down on you, you have to go to drastic measures to get results of getting it repaired.
This is why any time that I have a break down of my central heating and air conditioning system during either the cold winters or super hot summers I pay for emergency HVAC service. All in all it is an emergency when temperatures outside are that extreme. When you call for normal heating and cooling repair, you are taking the chance of them not being able to get a certified heat and a/c specialist out to your home on the same day. If they are really backed up you can sometimes find yourself waiting for 3 days to have your central heating and air conditioning system fixed! This is not a good thing. So the best bet is to just pay the extra money to request emergency HVAC service. That way you know for sure that by the end of the day you will be back up and running with your central heating and air conditioning system unit. You do not want to find yourself sitting with no heat or a/c in the bad weather times. This is how you can get really sick or sometimes even worse if you live in extreme climates. The last time I had to get HVAC repair and did emergency HVAC service they were at my home fixing it within a few hours and all was good within about 4 hours time.
