Honest diagnoses, upfront pricing, and clean workmanship from a Des Moines family that has been fixing heating and cooling for two decades. No runaround, no surprise fees.
From a rattling furnace to a brand-new central air system, here’s what we handle for homeowners across the Des Moines metro.
Replacement and new-system installation for home cooling. We size the unit to your house, swap the old condenser and coil, update the line set, and balance the charge so you get even, quiet cooling all summer — not a box that short-cycles the second it hits 90°.
Setup and wiring for programmable and smart thermostats. We pull the old unit, confirm the C-wire or add a power module, connect your Wi-Fi model, and walk you through the schedule so the savings actually show up on your MidAmerican bill.
Fast diagnosis and repair for air conditioners that stop cooling. Frozen coils, weak airflow, capacitor hums, refrigerant leaks, dead fans — we troubleshoot it on the spot and carry the common parts for a same-visit fix whenever possible.
Diagnosis and repair for furnaces that stop heating or run rough. Igniter failures, flame sensor scorch, blower bearings, cracked heat exchangers — we test the safeties, find the real fault, and get the heat back on before bedtime.
Replacement and installation guidance for new furnaces. We help you pick the right BTU and AFUE for the Iowa winter, pull permits, run new gas and venting as needed, and commission the system so it heats evenly and quietly for the next 15–20 years.
Ductless mini split installation for additions and problem rooms. Finished basements, sunrooms, second-floor bedrooms that never cool — we mount the indoor head, run the line set, set the outdoor unit, and pull vacuum before start-up so it runs clean.
Repair and maintenance for residential heat pumps. Reversing valve issues, defrost cycles that never end, auxiliary heat running all winter — we get the pump back to heating and cooling efficiently so you stop paying for backup strip heat.
Cleaning for dusty, restricted, and long-neglected duct runs. We brush and vacuum the supply and return trunk lines, clean the registers, and check for loose joints that pull attic air — so what comes out of the vent is what your filter caught.
Filtration, humidity, and ventilation improvements for the home. Better media filters, whole-home humidifiers for dry Iowa winters, ERV upgrades, and CO monitor checks — measured before and after so the air actually changes, not just the equipment.
Scheduled maintenance ahead of the heating and cooling seasons. We clean coils, flush the condensate line, check refrigerant pressures, test safeties, and change filters — before the first 95° day or the first sub-zero night catches your system off guard.
Real reviews from real homeowners across the metro.

“Quick response when I called about ac installation.”

Three Hendricks working out of one shop in Des Moines for 21 years. You call, the owner picks up — not a dispatch center three states away.
We test, we explain, then we price. No inflated “system failure” talk, no parts you don’t need. The quote you get is the price you pay.
Des Moines, West Des Moines, Ankeny, and the communities between — we’re close enough that a summer breakdown isn’t a two-day wait.
Worn-out HVAC guys leave a mess. We don’t. Drop cloths on the floor, covers on the boots, and the work area left cleaner than we found it.
From a frozen furnace in Ankeny to a fried capacitor in West Des Moines, our techs cover the central Iowa metro six days a week. If you’re inside this radius and your heat or AC just quit, call — we’ll tell you honestly whether we can be there today.
