HVAC Contractor in Pilot Mountain, NC
Pilot Mountain is a small foothills town named for the distinctive knob and state park that towers over it in southern Surry County, where in-town homes and rural properties on the slopes below the mountain see cooler, windier weather than the flatter Piedmont.

Flaming Ice Heating & Cooling provides AC repair, heating and heat pump service, HVAC replacement, and maintenance to homeowners in Pilot Mountain, Surry County. Owner-operated, same-day availability, and honest pricing — call (327) 210-5999.
Pilot Mountain takes its name from the distinctive knob that rises out of the Surry County foothills, the centerpiece of Pilot Mountain State Park. The town sits at the mountain's base, a small community of older in-town homes and rural properties scattered across the slopes and farmland below. The elevation and the wind off the higher ground make for cooler, sharper winters than you'd find an hour southeast — regular freezes, gusty cold, and the occasional snow that lean hard on a heating system.
A lot of the homes out here run on propane or gas furnaces paired with heat pumps, and the spread-out, hilly terrain means dependable scheduling counts. Being owner-operated, we give the same honest answer to a homeowner with an older furnace as to someone settling into a newer build — no inventing problems that aren't there.
Flaming Ice delivers same-day and weekend emergency service, fair no-upsell pricing, and a text before we arrive — reliable HVAC for the town in the shadow of the mountain.
