1. All Pro Heating, Air & Plumbing

Quick callbacks, even on Sunday evenings, come up often, along with heat pump and full-system installs. Some customers have stuck with the family crew for 20 years or more.

Best for older homes around Broad Ripple
What reviewers say: Long-time customers, many in older Broad Ripple-area homes, praise its seasonal furnace and AC maintenance and careful diagnosis. Reviewers say technicians explain things patiently without a hard sell, and mention fast visits during August heat and same-weekend fixes when the heat goes out. It also handles plumbing, such as water heaters and outdoor faucets.
Good to know: Two recent reviewers disputed a service-call fee after a warranty or repeat-repair disagreement. Its website advertises 24/7 emergency service, while Google lists weekday hours only, so call to confirm.

4. LCS Heating and Cooling
Best for a one-day system replacement

5. Bolls Heating & Cooling
Best for boilers
What reviewers say: Boiler owners single out the technicians’ know-how on boiler repairs and new boiler installs, plus furnace tune-ups before winter. Customers like the arrival texts that name the technician and the offers of an earlier slot when one opens up. Google showed us fewer recent reviews for Bolls than for the others, so this summary rests on a smaller sample.

- AC and furnace repair and replacement, boiler service and installs, heat pumps, indoor air quality, maintenance plans
- Website advertises 24/7 emergency service
- West side (W 16th St), with a second location in Bloomington
6. Turk Heating & Cooling
Best for honest repair-or-replace advice
What reviewers say: Reviewers praise honest second opinions that turned a big replacement quote into a small repair. They also mention proper sizing calculations before a furnace or AC replacement, tidy installs, same-day help during heat waves and winter outages, and an owner who picks up the phone himself. Most of these reviews come from east and south side homeowners.
- Family-owned, in business since 2002 (BBB)

How we picked
- We started with heating and cooling companies that show up on Google Maps for Indianapolis searches and have an Indianapolis address.
- To make the list, a company had to be locally owned, rated 4.8 or higher on Google with at least 100 reviews, and rated A+ by the BBB. We left out national franchises and companies now owned by national or private-equity groups, even well-known local names.
- We ordered them by Google rating adjusted for review count, so a 4.9 from 1,000 people counts for more than a 5.0 from 12. (We blend each rating with 100 reviews at 4.5 stars, so small samples don’t jump to the top.)
- We read up to 30 recent Google reviews for each company and summarized the themes that came up more than once. One-off complaints aren’t counted as themes.
- Ratings and review counts were checked on November 13, 2026. They change daily, so click through for today’s numbers. We recheck this list every few months.
Before you hire any HVAC company
- For a replacement, ask how they sized the new system. A proper load calculation looks at your house, not just the old unit’s size.
- Get the price in writing, and ask what the service-call or diagnostic fee is before anyone comes out.
- Ask whether they’ll pull the permit for a new furnace or AC.
- Ask who registers the equipment warranty, and what their own labor warranty covers.
- If you’re told to replace a system that’s working, get a second opinion. Several reviewers on this page saved real money doing it.
If your furnace won’t start, try our checks to do before you call first. It might save you a service call.
Questions people ask
Which Indianapolis HVAC companies offer 24/7 emergency service?
Bolls and Turk say on their websites that they offer 24/7 emergency service. LCS answers its phones around the clock but sends technicians out only until 11 p.m. Howald’s website advertises 24/7 service, but Google lists weekday hours, so call to confirm.
Should I repair or replace my furnace?
It depends on the furnace’s age, the repair cost and how well it heats your home. Our furnace guide covers the basics, and a second opinion helps before a big replacement.
