I cannot thank Midnight Sun Heating (MSH) enough for their great service. On a Friday night in -35°F weather, our System 2000 stopped working. While other companies were unavailable to provide emergency service, Midnight Sun answered immediately. The owner/technician, Erin, was truly professional and very helpful. She first spent 40 minutes on the phone with me, walking me through a step-by-step diagnosis. When it was clear an on-site fix was needed, she drove out in the middle of the freezing night and got here by 2 am! She was an expert with our specific system and got the heat back on. The pricing was incredibly reasonable given the extreme emergency conditions. I was very appreciative of Erin's dedication such that I wanted to include a tip as a token of my thanks and their willingness to help out. Our house has heat again thanks to Erin! I thoroughly recommend MSH to anyone searching for an expert, reliable, and honest heating team.

2 winters ago I had frozen pipes and my boiler was barely hanging on. Erin was backed up with calls due to the cold snap we had that January. Although she was super busy, she helped me troubleshoot via text and pictures I sent her of my boiler. She helped me isolate the problem to prevent further issues. She even checked up on me throughout the week to see how things were going. When she did make it out, she repaired everything on the first trip out and serviced my boiler all for a very reasonable price. I highly recommend her, especially compared to the overpriced guys with the cartoon on their vans. Those guys flaked on two scheduled appointments.

I hope Im spelling her name correctly but Erin is always great to work with. She is very knowledgeable, prompt and always friendly. She has very fair prices for her services. Above all she does a great job and is very honest. I would highly recommend Erin and Midnight Sun over all other companies in our area.

Erin is AMAZING!!!! Very knowledgeable, professional and sweet!!! I had her come out and do a massive tune up and old parts change on a boiler. She did it efficiently and correctly. She made sure to take the time to explain everything to me as well. I requested for a full written report and I was blown away by how detailed and professional this report was. She also attached before and after photos of her work. Absolutely outstanding!!!!! Thank you again Midnight Sun Heating!!!!!

Erin was wonderful! Knowledgeable, punctual, kind, and the bill was reasonable. In this world where contractors take advantage just because they can, the experience was very refreshing! I won’t look further for an honest heating expert. I highly recommend Midnight Sun Heating!!
