Express Air & Plumbing has been the go-to HVAC contractor for Bossier City homeowners and businesses since 2002. For 24 years, we have handled the heating and cooling work that keeps families comfortable through long Gulf South summers and the occasional cold snap that reminds everyone their heater still matters. We built this company on transparent pricing with no hidden fees on any HVAC job, and that commitment has not changed. Whether you need a same-day AC repair, a full system replacement, or a heat pump installation, you reach a local team that knows this area and stands behind its work.
Dependable service. Honest rates. Local HVAC know-how.
Over the years, we've seen every kind of furnace, AC, and heat pump that gets installed in this part of Louisiana, and we have worked on most of them. When we started in 2002, we were a small operation focused on Bossier City and the neighborhoods around it. Word spread, and before long we were running calls across Bossier Parish, into Shreveport, out to Haughton and Benton, and as far as Elm Grove, Princeton, and the communities near Barksdale AFB.
That growth happened the old-fashioned way: we showed up on time, explained what we found, and charged what we said we would. We treat your home the way we'd want ours treated. That approach works just as well for a property manager with a commercial building as it does for a homeowner dealing with a broken AC in July.
We are a locally owned company, and the people who answer your call and show up at your door are part of this community. We know what Bossier Parish summers feel like, we know how hard the humidity pushes on HVAC equipment here, and we know what it takes to keep systems running in this climate.
Your system is in good hands with us.
We've handled everything from a quick tune-up to a full system swap, and most of what falls in between. Residential customers call us for AC repair and service, heat pump repair and installation, heating and furnace repair, thermostat and smart-control installation, ductwork repair and sealing, and indoor air quality improvements. We also do full HVAC system installations and replacements when a unit has reached the end of its useful life.
For customers in older homes or room additions without existing ductwork, ductless mini-split systems are a practical option we install and service regularly. On the commercial side, we work with property managers, small businesses, and light commercial facilities that need reliable HVAC service without the runaround.
Our seasonal maintenance and tune-up visits keep equipment running efficiently before the heat season peaks. When something goes wrong outside of business hours, our emergency HVAC service is available around the clock because a system failure at midnight in a Louisiana summer is not something that can wait until morning.
Work performed by qualified HVAC technicians is the standard on every job we run, whether it is a diagnostic call on a struggling air conditioner or a full system replacement.
We'll get your comfort back on track.
Your home deserves heating and cooling that runs right, and in Bossier City that means your air conditioner has to be ready for a long, demanding season. Summers here are hot and humid from May through September, and a system that is low on refrigerant, running with dirty coils, or struggling with restricted airflow will not keep up when temperatures climb into the upper nineties.
We handle the full range of AC work: emergency repairs when a system stops cooling, diagnostic calls to track down the source of a problem, refrigerant leak detection, condenser and evaporator coil service, airflow troubleshooting, and AC replacements when repair no longer makes sense. If your system has not had a tune-up before the cooling season starts, a maintenance visit is one of the most cost-effective steps you can take to avoid a breakdown at the worst possible time.
Same-day AC repair is available for urgent situations. We will diagnose the problem, explain what we found, and give you a clear quote before any work begins.
We'll have your system running again in no time.
Before a small issue turns into a full breakdown, it pays to have a heat pump technician take a look. Heat pumps are a strong fit for the Louisiana climate. Winters here are mild enough that a heat pump handles the heating load efficiently without the fuel costs of a furnace, and during the long cooling season it runs as a standard air conditioner. That year-round versatility makes heat pumps one of the most practical choices for Bossier Parish homes and light commercial properties.
We repair heat pumps that have stopped heating or cooling, diagnose reversing valve and refrigerant issues, and perform the seasonal maintenance that keeps them running at rated efficiency. When a unit has reached the end of its service life, we handle heat pump replacements and new installations, including ductless mini-split heat pumps for spaces that do not have existing ductwork.
Clear communication from the first call to the final test is how we run every heat pump job. You will know what we found, what the repair or installation involves, and what it will cost before we start.
Your home deserves heating and cooling that runs right, and in a climate as humid as Bossier Parish, the air inside your home is part of that equation. High humidity year-round creates conditions where mold, allergens, and airborne contaminants accumulate faster than they would in a drier region. Families with allergy or asthma concerns feel the difference most, but anyone spending time in a home with poor indoor air quality is affected.
We install and service a range of indoor air quality solutions: whole-home air purifiers, UV air purification systems, air scrubbers, and high-efficiency air filtration upgrades that work with your existing HVAC system. For humidity control, whole-home dehumidifier installation is one of the most effective steps a Bossier City homeowner can take to reduce mold risk and improve comfort during the humid months.
Ductwork inspection and sealing supports indoor air quality as well. Leaky ducts pull in unconditioned air from attics and crawl spaces, and that air carries dust, humidity, and contaminants into the living space. Sealing those leaks improves both air quality and system efficiency at the same time.
Pricing surprises are one of the most common complaints homeowners have about HVAC service. We handle that by explaining costs upfront. When a technician arrives for a diagnostic or service call, they will walk through what they found and give you a clear quote before any repair work begins. We treat your home and its system the way we would our own, and that means no pressure and no hidden charges showing up after the fact.
For non-emergency work, same-day scheduling is available when our calendar allows. For system failures, our 24-hour emergency HVAC service means you can reach us when your AC goes down on a weekend or your heating stops working on a cold night. Call us to request an estimate, schedule a service call, or get a quote on a new system installation.
Honest quotes. Code-compliant work. Reliable comfort.
Bossier City winters are mild compared to much of the country, but heating systems still fail, and when they do it tends to happen on the coldest nights of the year. We service and repair furnaces, handle heating system diagnostics, and replace units that have worn out. Emergency heating repair is available when a system goes down and the house gets cold fast.
Thermostat and smart thermostat installation is a straightforward upgrade that improves both comfort and efficiency. A properly calibrated thermostat keeps your system from running longer than it needs to and gives you better control over your home's temperature year-round. Ductwork repair and sealing supports heating efficiency the same way it supports cooling: a tight duct system delivers conditioned air where it is supposed to go instead of losing it to unconditioned spaces.
Our service area covers Bossier City and the communities throughout Bossier Parish, including Shreveport, Haughton, Benton, Elm Grove, Princeton, Greenwood, Stonewall, and the neighborhoods near Barksdale AFB. If you are in the area and need HVAC service, there is a good chance we have already worked in your neighborhood.

We treat your home the way we'd want ours treated, and that includes being careful with floors, walls, and finishes when moving equipment or accessing system components. Our technicians work cleanly and leave the work area in the same condition they found it.
We stand behind the work our technicians perform. If something we repaired or installed is not performing as it should, we want to know and we will make it right. Clear communication from the first call to the final test is how we run every job, and that accountability does not end when the technician leaves.
For emergency calls, we respond as quickly as possible and offer same-day service for urgent situations. For non-emergency requests, we typically schedule within a day or two depending on availability. Call (318) 656-3289 and we will give you a realistic timeframe based on our current schedule.

| HVAC Service | What the Service Includes | Best For | Things to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full System Installation and Replacement |
| Homeowners and property managers replacing an aging or failing HVAC system | Correct sizing at installation is the single biggest factor in long-term efficiency and comfort |
| Whole-Home Dehumidification and Humidity Control |
| Bossier City homes that feel sticky or uncomfortable even when the thermostat is set correctly | High indoor humidity is a persistent issue in this climate; a whole-home unit addresses it at the source rather than room by room |
| Thermostat and Smart-Control Installation |
| Homeowners looking for better control over comfort and utility costs | A smart thermostat can reduce runtime during unoccupied hours without sacrificing comfort when you are home |
| Emergency HVAC Service |
| Anyone dealing with a system that has stopped working without warning, including no-cool calls in summer and no-heat calls overnight | We arrive ready to diagnose and repair, not just assess and schedule a follow-up for another day |
| Heat Pump Repair and Service |
| The majority of local homes and businesses that rely on a heat pump year-round | Heat pumps are the dominant system in this region; keeping one maintained reduces the chance of a mid-season failure |
| Heating and Furnace Repair |
| Homes with a furnace that is not producing heat or is cycling on and off unexpectedly | Furnace calls are less common in this mild climate, but we handle them fully when they come up |
| Ductwork Repair and Sealing |
| Homes with uneven temperatures, high energy bills, or weak airflow in certain rooms | Leaky ducts can waste a significant share of conditioned air before it ever reaches the living space |
| High-Efficiency Central AC Replacement |
| Homeowners with an aging central AC that is generating frequent repairs or rising energy bills | With a cooling season that can run eight or nine months, high-efficiency equipment pays back in lower utility costs faster here than in most other regions |
| AC Repair and Service |
| Homeowners and businesses with an AC that has stopped cooling or is underperforming | Most repair calls are completed the same day; catching issues early prevents costlier failures mid-summer |
| Indoor Air Quality and Air Filtration |
| Households concerned about allergens, dust, or airborne contaminants, especially in high-pollen and high-humidity months | Bossier Parish's humid, high-pollen climate makes air quality upgrades especially practical for allergy-prone households |
| Heat Pump Installation |
| Homeowners upgrading to a heat pump or replacing an older system with a more efficient single-unit solution | Heat pumps are well matched to this region's mild winters and long cooling seasons; ductless mini-splits are available for spaces where running new duct is not practical |
| Seasonal Maintenance and Tune-Ups |
| Any homeowner or property manager who wants to avoid breakdowns during peak cooling or heating season | Pre-season tune-ups catch worn components before they fail during the stretch of the year when you need the system most |
How do I know if my AC or heat pump needs to be repaired or replaced?
Age and repair history are the two biggest factors. If a system is more than 12 to 15 years old and has needed repairs in consecutive seasons, replacement usually makes better financial sense than continuing to repair it. We walk through that comparison honestly when we diagnose a system, so you have the information you need to make the right call.
What causes a system to stop heating or cooling entirely?
The most common causes are a tripped breaker at the unit, a dirty filter restricting airflow, a failed capacitor or contactor, low refrigerant from a leak, or a fault in the thermostat or control board. Some of these are straightforward repairs; others take a full diagnosis to pinpoint. When you call us, we ask a few questions to help narrow it down before a technician arrives.
How often should I schedule a maintenance tune-up?
Once a year is the minimum, and twice a year is better if you are running both heating and cooling heavily. In Bossier City, where the AC runs for most of the year, a pre-season inspection in the spring is especially valuable. It gives us a chance to catch refrigerant issues, dirty coils, and worn components before the peak of summer demand.
Transparent Upfront Pricing
We provide a clear quote before any work begins, and if the scope changes once we are on the job, we communicate that and get your approval before proceeding. Transparent pricing with no hidden fees on any HVAC job is a standard we hold to on every call.
Why is one room in my home hotter or colder than the rest?
Uneven temperatures usually point to a ductwork issue, a sizing problem with the original system, or a blockage somewhere in the air distribution path. Leaky ducts are a common cause, and they can waste a significant amount of conditioned air before it reaches the room you are trying to cool. We check airflow and duct integrity as part of our diagnostic process.
What do strange noises from my HVAC unit usually mean?
A rattling sound often points to a loose panel or debris in the unit. Squealing or grinding usually indicates a blower motor or belt issue. Clicking at startup or shutdown is often normal, but clicking that repeats during a cycle can signal a relay or control problem. If a noise is new or getting louder, it is worth a call before it becomes a more expensive repair.
How do refrigerant leaks affect performance, and can they be fixed?
Low refrigerant causes the system to lose cooling capacity, run longer to reach the set temperature, and in some cases freeze the evaporator coil. The refrigerant itself is not consumed, so a low level always means there is a leak somewhere in the system. We locate the leak, repair it, and recharge the system to the correct level. Simply adding refrigerant without fixing the leak is a short-term fix that does not solve the underlying problem.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
When a system goes down without warning, we offer same-day availability and after-hours response for HVAC emergencies. Our technicians arrive ready to diagnose and repair, not just assess and schedule a follow-up.
Is a heat pump a good choice for a home in Bossier City?
Yes, and most homes here already have one. Heat pumps handle both heating and cooling from a single unit, and they work efficiently in climates where hard freezes are uncommon. For the mild winters and long cooling seasons typical of northwest Louisiana, a heat pump is usually the most practical and cost-effective choice. We can walk you through the options, including ductless mini-splits for spaces where running new duct is not practical.
What does a seasonal tune-up actually include?
A standard tune-up covers a full system inspection, cleaning of the coils and accessible components, a refrigerant level check, airflow measurement, thermostat verification, and a check of the electrical connections at the unit. The goal is to catch anything that could cause a failure during peak season and to confirm the system is running at the efficiency it should be.
Work Performed by Qualified HVAC Technicians
Every job, from a straightforward repair call to a full system installation, is handled by qualified HVAC technicians who show up prepared, diagnose accurately, and get the work done right the first time.
Do I need to be home when the technician arrives?
You do not need to be present for all of the work, but we do ask that someone who can authorize repairs be available or reachable when we arrive. That way, if we find something that needs attention beyond the original call, we can communicate the issue and get approval before we proceed. We provide a clear quote before any work begins.
How does whole-home dehumidification actually work?
A whole-home dehumidifier is installed in line with the existing HVAC system and treats air as it circulates through the ductwork. Unlike a portable room unit, it addresses humidity throughout the entire home. We set it to an appropriate target, test the integration with your existing equipment, and walk you through the controls. In a climate as humid as Bossier Parish's, the difference in comfort is noticeable, especially during the summer months.
What causes a system to short-cycle, and should I be concerned?
Short-cycling means the system is turning on and off more frequently than it should, often without completing a full heating or cooling cycle. Common causes include an oversized system, a refrigerant issue, a dirty filter restricting airflow, or a fault in the thermostat or control board. It puts extra wear on the compressor and blower motor over time, so it is worth having diagnosed rather than ignored.
Every home and every system is a little different, so call us at (318) 656-3289 and we will give you a straight answer about what your system needs and what it will cost.
