When your CO detector goes off at 2 AM, we actually answer the phone.
Hi, I’m Mike. I’ve been protecting Minneapolis families from carbon monoxide for over 15 years – because I live here too, and I’ve seen what can happen when families don’t get help fast enough.

The Minneapolis Neighborhoods I Serve
Look, I know every street in Minneapolis. I’ve been in basements from Loring Park to Longfellow, and I’ve seen how different neighborhoods have different risks. Here’s where I provide my 30-minute emergency response guarantee:
South Minneapolis
I love the character of South Minneapolis homes, but many were built when CO safety wasn’t even a consideration. I’ve helped dozens of families here – from emergency midnight calls to annual safety checks that give parents peace of mind.
Southwest Minneapolis
The mix of older homes and newer construction in Southwest Minneapolis means different CO risks. I’ve worked on everything from 1920s bungalows to modern townhomes, and I know what to look for in each.
North Minneapolis
North Minneapolis families deserve the same protection as anywhere else. I’ve responded to emergency calls here at all hours, and I always bring the same urgent care – because every family matters.
Powderhorn
These beautiful old homes in Powderhorn have so much character, but they also have furnaces that have seen a lot of Minneapolis winters. I help families keep their homes safe while preserving what makes them special.
Phillips
The Phillips neighborhood has a mix of housing that keeps me on my toes. Whether it’s an emergency CO call or helping a family understand their furnace better, I approach every job the same way – like it’s my own family.
Longfellow
I’ve probably worked on more furnaces in Longfellow than anywhere else. The families here know they can count on me, whether it’s 3 PM on a Tuesday or 3 AM on a Sunday.
Loring Park
High-rise living presents unique CO challenges. I’ve developed specific expertise with the heating systems common in Loring Park buildings, and I know how to keep residents safe.
Marcy Holmes
Being so close to the University means a lot of rental properties, and unfortunately, that sometimes means deferred maintenance. I work with both renters and landlords to make sure everyone stays safe.
East Isles
The historic homes in East Isles are gorgeous, but they need someone who understands how older heating systems work. I’ve been maintaining and repairing furnaces here for years.
Lowry Hill
Even expensive homes can have dangerous CO problems. I’ve responded to emergencies in some of Minneapolis’s most beautiful houses – carbon monoxide doesn’t care about your zip code.
Kingfield
Kingfield families know they can call me day or night. I’ve built relationships here over the years, and parents tell me it helps them sleep better knowing I’m just a phone call away.
Nokomis
Living near the lake is beautiful, but the humidity can affect furnace operation. I help Nokomis families understand their heating systems and keep them running safely year-round.
Linden Hills
The families in Linden Hills expect quality work, and that’s exactly what I deliver. From emergency repairs to preventive maintenance, I treat every home like it’s my own.
Fulton
I’ve been serving Fulton families for years, and word travels fast in tight-knit neighborhoods. When someone recommends me to their neighbor, it means I’m doing something right.
Whittier
The diversity of housing in Whittier means I see all kinds of heating systems. Whether it’s an old boiler or a new high-efficiency furnace, I know how to keep it safe.
Armatage
Armatage feels like a small town within the city, and I try to provide that kind of personal service. Families here know they can trust me with their most important investment – their family’s safety.
Windom
I’ve helped multiple generations of families in Windom. When a grandmother calls me because she’s worried about her daughter’s furnace, or when that daughter calls me years later for her own home, that’s when I know I’m making a difference.
What I Do When Your Family Needs Help
Emergency Services (Available 24/7)
CO Leak Detection
When you call about a possible CO leak, I don’t just show up with a basic detector from the hardware store. I bring professional-grade equipment that can tell me exactly where the problem is and how serious it is. I’ll test every room, find the source, and make sure your home is safe before I leave. No guessing, no “probably fine” – just facts.
Emergency CO Response
This is what I’m most proud of – when your family is in danger, I drop everything and come help. I’ve gotten out of bed, left family dinners, and cut vacations short because someone needed me. That’s not a burden, that’s my purpose. In 15 years, I’ve never missed my 30-minute guarantee for a true emergency.
Furnace Repair
I’ve fixed thousands of furnaces, but I never forget that each one keeps a family warm and safe. When I’m working on your furnace, I explain what I’m doing and why. No mysterious repairs or surprise bills – just honest work from someone who actually cares about the outcome.
Inspection & Prevention Services
Heat Exchanger Inspections
A cracked heat exchanger is like a ticking time bomb in your basement. I’ve found cracks that other companies missed, and I’ve probably saved lives because of it. I don’t just look – I use cameras, pressure tests, and 15 years of experience to make sure your family is protected.
Safety Inspections
Think of this as a physical for your heating system. I check everything that could possibly affect your family’s safety, and I explain it all in plain English. No technical jargon, no upselling – just an honest assessment from someone who knows what to look for.
CO Detector Installation
The cheap detectors from the store are better than nothing, but they’re not what I’d put in my own home. I install professional-grade units in the right locations, test them properly, and show you how to maintain them. Your family deserves the best protection available.
Ongoing Care & Support
Furnace Maintenance
Most people only think about their furnace when it stops working. I help families think about it before that happens. Regular maintenance isn’t just about efficiency – it’s about safety. A well-maintained furnace is a safe furnace, and a safe furnace means your family sleeps well at night.
Insurance Claim Assistance
Dealing with insurance companies after a CO incident shouldn’t be your problem – you’ve got enough to worry about. I’ve helped dozens of families navigate the claim process, and I know exactly what documentation the insurance companies need. I’ll fight for you to get what you deserve.
Landlord Safety Checks
If you’re a landlord, your tenants’ safety is your responsibility. I help property owners meet that responsibility with thorough inspections and clear documentation. Good landlords want their tenants safe – I help make that happen.
Real Estate CO Audits
Buying a home is scary enough without worrying about hidden dangers. My pre-purchase inspections give families confidence in their biggest investment. I’ve found problems that could have hurt families, and I’ve given peace of mind to hundreds of new homeowners.
