Emergency Heating: 24/7 Assistance

24/7 Emergency Heating Assistance

For over 100 years and across four generations, Minneapolis-based Ray N. Welter Heating Company has been there for its customers during their most challenging times. As one of the longest-serving local heating repair companies in the Twin Cities, we take pride in being available whenever our customers need us, regardless of the time or day.

No one ever plans for their heating system to break or need repair in the middle of the winter. But you can rest assured that when you call Welter Heating, we will answer. We offer emergency heating assistance for our customers 365 days a year, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day. While your furnace might be unpredictable, our service is not. You can count on us to be there.

Emergency Heating Repair & Maintenance

Welter Heating offers a range of services tailored to meet your specific needs. For emergency heating needs, use our 24-hour furnace support. Before you phone a friend or consider alternative lodging in the middle of the night, give us a call for immediate assistance.

There are many reasons you may want to call in for emergency heat assistance. Here are some signs that your furnace might be on the fritz:

  • Your furnace is no longer putting out hot air
  • Your home has hot and cold spots instead of even heating
  • Your heating bill is going up without warning
  • Your furnace is making strange noises
  • Your pilot light keeps going out
  • Your home thermostat isn’t working right
  • Your furnace is putting out strange, unusual smells
  • You discover water around your furnace

While it’s easy to have a wait-and-see attitude in these situations, when you are in the middle of a winter chill, it’s not worth the risk. Connecting with one of our representatives will help you assess the issue over the phone and our experts can recommend the best next steps. Once you get in touch, if a repair needs to be made, we’ll be there immediately for repair, be it rain, snow, or shine.

Pro tip: Before you make a service call be sure to check your circuit breaker to see if it is flipped.

We offer emergency heating repair for all makes and models of furnaces, including:

  • Heat Pumps, Blower Motors & Pilot Lights
  • Thermostats, Igniters & Gas Valves
  • Heating and Cooling HVAC Systems
  • Furnace Problems (such as flame sensors, furnace not heating the air, inoperative high limit switch, or a burnt circuit board)

Hear From Our Customers

These guys were my second call when my furnace stopped working properly. The first company I used sent a tech out who said the furnace needed to be replaced, and gave me a quote, but said he "jiggled a wire" and got it running again for the time being.

When it went out again the other day, I called Ray N. Welter. Their tech, Ralph, fixed the problem in half an hour. He told me the furnace is pretty old, but his fix should get me through the winter "and maybe a couple more," and then gave me a quote that was lower than the first company.

These guys are rad.

Furnace stopped working. When that happens after hours you learn a lot about companies. Today I called RW and got a person on the phone that knows about furnaces and he dispatched a service person Phil within 2 hours. I called them based on personal refer and reviews. They are excellent. Despite having a very old furnace it was the second time that this company said I did not need to replace. If I did replace it I want a Trane and RW would do to the work. For now I will call them for fall/spring tune ups and love that they don't have the club memberships etc. Just good solid customer service for all customers. A really ++ experience. Family run business with integrity.

If you need superior service this is your company!!! We were in Florida experiencing our first year as "snowbirds" when our furnace (in Bloomington) stopped working. Rick Welter personally took our call and not only sent a technician to our cold home, but checked on it for the next two days until our new heating unit could be properly installed. Phenomenal service!

In addition to the great service, their pricing was very competitive. I highly recommend this company for all of your heating or A/C needs!!!
