What Gets Treated as Urgent
Emergency calls are prioritized for: complete heating failures when outdoor temperatures are below freezing, any situation with carbon monoxide concerns or gas odors, heating failures in homes with elderly residents or infants, and any system that has been without heat for more than 12 hours in cold weather. Call and describe your situation — urgency is triaged accordingly.
What to Do While You Wait
While waiting for service in Dayton: use space heaters on safe surfaces away from flammables, keep interior doors closed to retain heat in occupied rooms, and never use gas ovens or outdoor cooking equipment for indoor heating. If you smell gas, leave the house and call your gas company immediately before calling us.
