Safe checks before calling

  • Confirm the thermostat is on, set correctly, and calling for heating or cooling.
  • Check the air filter and visible return-air path for obvious airflow restrictions.
  • Look around the outdoor unit for leaves, snow, ice, or other visible obstructions without opening the cabinet.
  • Take photos of the thermostat, outdoor unit, nameplate, and any visible flash pattern before scheduling service.

When to stop and call GreenFlow

Call GreenFlow if the code repeats, the system is locked out, heating or cooling is not restored, there is ice buildup, electrical odor, unusual noise, or any issue involving pressure switches, sensors, wiring, refrigerant, reversing-valve operation, or warranty coverage.

Share the visible code, model and serial number if available, photos, current symptoms, and whether the issue affects heating, cooling, or both.

Green Flow got our AC back up and running at our condo the same day! Andrey was on time, super efficient, and with the right part on hand. The price was fair enough. Would definitely recommend them!

I honestly can't believe my experience with Green Flow. I submitted a request for help through Thumbtack and Hannah called me literally a minute later to schedule an appointment. Thirty minutes after that, Andree was at my place doing A/C repair and furnace service. One hour after that,...

Andrey from Green Flow came out exactly when he said he was going to and fixed a simple problem with the heating system at my rental property. Really appreciate the quick turnaround and fair pricing.
