Ten months of work, Coweta County summers and winters
Your system runs most of the year here. Heat from November through March, cooling from May through September, only a couple of months off in between. Summer afternoons average 88°F, so the compressor works long hours to keep up. Winter nights average 35°F, cold enough that the heat runs through the night on a lot of properties.
More than half the homes in the area heat with electricity, which means a heat pump or electric furnace carrying that whole load. Coweta County has seen 174 damaging wind events over the past ten years, and storms like that knock out power. Across Georgia, close to a third of households lost power for at least 24 hours in 2024. When the power drops and comes back, most systems restart on their own, but if a part was already failing before the outage, that restart is when it gives out.

Georgia requires HVAC contractors to hold a state license.
The State Construction Industry Licensing Board is the one that issues this license, and it tests the contractor before granting it. The license covers the contractor or company itself, not each job they take on, so the same license that qualifies someone to do this work covers the repair on this page as well.
For a repair to a heating and cooling system, that license is what stands behind the person doing the work. Georgia does not leave this to counties or to a separate registration. The license itself is the record that the contractor was tested and can be checked against the state board.

- Why is my heat not working?
- Most no-heat calls come down to a few things. If you have a gas furnace, the igniter may have failed or the flame sensor may be too dirty to detect a flame, and the furnace shuts itself off rather than run without one. If you heat with electricity, which more than half of homes here do, check the breaker first since a heat strip pulling that much current will trip a weak breaker before anything else shows a problem. Check your thermostat batteries and your air filter too. A filter packed with dust chokes airflow and can shut the system down on its own safety switch.
- Why is my system running but not cooling the house?
- If air is moving but it is not cold, the problem is usually with the refrigerant side rather than the air side. A dirty air filter or a coil covered in ice will both cut off the cooling even though the blower keeps running. On a 88°F afternoon a struggling system falls further behind, so what felt like slightly warm air in the morning can feel like no cooling at all by mid-afternoon. Turn the system off for a few hours to let any ice melt, replace the filter, and call for repair if it still is not cooling.
- What can I check before calling for HVAC repair?
- Start with the thermostat. Make sure it is set to heat or cool as needed and that the batteries are good. Check your breaker panel for a tripped breaker, since Georgia sees frequent wind events that can cause power blips, and check that the air filter is not clogged. If the system still is not working after that, a licensed contractor can diagnose it. Georgia requires HVAC contractors to hold a state license through the State Construction Industry Licensing Board, so ask for that license number before any work begins.
