Protocol Focus · Immediate Safety

Never Use a Gas Oven or Grill for Indoor Heat

Using a gas oven, outdoor grill, or generator indoors for heat creates a serious carbon monoxide risk — safer temporary options include extra blankets, layered clothing, and closing off unused rooms to conserve heat in occupied spaces.

Never use gas ovens, outdoor grills, or generators indoors for heat — this creates deadly CO risk.
Space heaters, if used, should be plugged directly into wall outlets and never left unattended.
Let faucets drip slightly during a hard freeze to help prevent pipe bursts while your heat is down.

When Houston Heating Emergencies Spike

Winter Emergency Patterns We See

COLD FRONTS

Sudden cold front arrivals

Systems idle for months often fail exactly when a sharp cold front hits.

OVERNIGHT

Overnight failures

Heating failures often become apparent overnight when temperatures drop most.

HOLIDAY TIMING

Holiday period spikes

Extended family gatherings during winter holidays put extra strain on aging systems.

FIRST USE

First-use-of-season failures

Many emergency calls happen on the very first cold day when systems restart after months idle.

Cold Front Surges

Why Every Heater in Houston Breaks on the Same Night

Houston cold fronts do not arrive gradually. Temperatures can drop 30 degrees in a few hours, and every furnace in the city is switched on within the same evening — including the ones that have not run since March.

FIRST START

First-start failures

The most common emergency call: a furnace that ran fine last winter will not start at all. Ignitors, flame sensors, and thermostats fail on first use after months idle.

FROZEN PIPES

Frozen pipe risk

When the heat goes out during a hard freeze, pipes in exterior walls and attics can freeze within hours. A fast heater repair is also pipe protection.

ELDERLY & INFANTS

Vulnerable household members

Older adults and infants lose body heat faster in a cold house. If anyone in the home is vulnerable, a no-heat call during a freeze is a same-hour emergency.

POWER SURGES

Storm and surge damage

Winter storms bring power flickers and surges that damage furnace control boards. If the furnace died right after a power flicker, tell us — it changes the diagnosis.

While You Wait

What to Do While the Truck Is on Its Way

While You Wait

What to Do While the Truck Is on Its Way

Stay warm and stay safe. Close off unused rooms, gather everyone in one room, and use blankets and layers rather than unvented heaters or the oven for heat. Never run a generator or grill inside the home.

If you have a space heater, use it only in the room you are in, keep it three feet from anything flammable, and never leave it running while you sleep. And if your carbon monoxide alarm sounds at any point, leave the home immediately and call from outside.

Keep the thermostat set to heat so the furnace starts the moment it is fixed.
Open cabinet doors under sinks on exterior walls to let warm air reach the pipes.
Let faucets drip slightly during a hard freeze to reduce pipe pressure.
Do not try to relight a gas furnace yourself if you smell gas.
