Residential Furnace & AC Repair in De Soto
Ricotta Heating & Air provides heating and cooling service for homeowners in De Soto, Missouri. Our services include furnace diagnostics and repairs, air conditioning service, maintenance and HVAC replacement estimates.
De Soto Homes We See Most
De Soto runs heavy on older bungalows in town with retrofitted central air, plus a lot of rural acreage on propane and split heat pumps. The propane systems in particular need an annual nozzle and combustion check most companies skip — we don't.
For De Soto homes, we look beyond the thermostat. Rural properties may have longer refrigerant lines, crawlspace equipment, propane heat, or additions that changed the original heating and cooling load. We inspect those details before recommending a repair or replacement, then explain the cost and expected benefit so the homeowner can make a practical decision.
Furnace Repair & Heating Service in De Soto
Same family running the business for over 50 years — straight answers, fair pricing, and no upsells on the older bungalows in town or the rural propane systems west of De Soto.
A furnace that will not start, blows cool air, or cycles repeatedly needs a diagnosis before parts are replaced. Ricotta checks the thermostat, ignition, flame sensor, blower and airflow to identify the fault and explain repair options. For aging equipment, compare repair with replacement based on condition, comfort and cost—not sales pressure.
Diagnostics on existing equipment carry a service call fee; estimates for system replacement are free. Call for current availability if your De Soto home has no heat.

De Soto HVAC Questions
Do you service propane furnaces around De Soto?
Yes. Many of our rural calls are propane — we'll tune the burner, check combustion, and inspect the tank regulator at the same visit.
How much does AC repair cost in De Soto?
AC repair costs depend on the diagnosis, parts, and labor. Ask about diagnostic charges when scheduling; free estimates apply to system replacement.
How quickly can you provide AC repair in De Soto?
Call during our 7 AM–8 PM hours to confirm the next available appointment in Jefferson County. Scheduling depends on demand and the repair needed.
My AC is blowing warm air — can you fix it?
Usually yes; warm air typically means low refrigerant, a failed capacitor, or a frozen coil — all things we carry parts for.
Should I repair or replace my AC?
Age, repair frequency and comfort all matter. We'll walk you through honest repair-vs-replace options; free estimates apply to system replacement.
How long does a furnace or AC last?
With annual maintenance, most furnaces last about 15–20 years. Skipping yearly tune-ups tends to shorten that and leads to more breakdowns.
