HVAC Services in Lyons

Lyons sits at about 5,341 feet where the plains meet the foothills, with U.S. 36 and State Highway 7 both leading west toward Rocky Mountain National Park. Its housing is unusually varied for a town of about 2,200 people: red sandstone buildings from the 1870s through 1917, neighborhoods like Steamboat Valley with 1990s homes on town water and natural gas, and outlying parcels that rely on propane, wells and septic systems. Each setup calls for a different approach to heating repair.

The September 2013 flood still shapes HVAC work in town. The flood blocked every route into town and disrupted water and sewer service, and in flooded homes, heating equipment in basements and crawlspaces had to be repaired or replaced. Many areas of town remain in the mapped floodplain, so equipment location and any replacement work in those areas may need a floodplain development permit in addition to a building permit.

Lyons also runs its own electric utility, buying power through the Municipal Energy Agency of Nebraska, and offers local rebates for efficient upgrades. The town is a partner in Boulder County's Switch Together heat pump program, which has been open to Lyons residents. The Town contracts SAFEbuilt for building department services, and contractors need a Town of Lyons contractor license to pull a permit. On every furnace call, we confirm the fuel type, check gas pressure and test combustion and carbon monoxide.
