Burning smell, sparking outlet, or half the house dark in Kent? A real local team answers 24/7 and a licensed electrician is on the way.
Some electrical problems can wait for an appointment; a burning smell, a sparking outlet, a buzzing panel, or sudden loss of power to part of the house cannot. When you call AK Heating & Cooling, a real person from our Warren-based team answers day or night and we dispatch a licensed electrician (#38179) to Kent — not an answering service that books you days out.
Kent runs a mix of housing eras — older homes on undersized 100-amp panels and aging branch wiring, and newer builds that just need capacity added for an EV charger or a generator. We work both ends: bringing old wiring up to code and expanding modern panels for new loads.
The same NE Ohio storms and hard freezes that stress heating equipment also knock the grid down and push surges back through home wiring. That's why panel condition, whole-house surge protection, and generator-ready service matter as much in Kent as the furnace does — and why we handle the electrical side in-house instead of subbing it out.

“Furnace went out on a Sunday night. AK had a tech in the driveway in 90 minutes, parts on the truck, and we were warm before kids' bedtime. Worth every dollar of the maintenance plan.”
“Our restaurant walk-in went down at 6am. AK answered the after-hours line on the second ring and had us running before lunch service. We've switched all of our refrigeration work to them.”
“Had Generac install, AC tune-up, and a humidifier swap done across two visits. One bill, one company, real techs. This is what local service is supposed to feel like.”
A burning or smoky smell, sparking outlets or panels, a buzzing panel, scorch marks, outlets hot to the touch, partial power loss, or a main breaker that won't reset all need fast attention. If you're not sure, call (330) 469-6701 and we'll help you decide.
Yes. When only part of the home goes dark it often points to a failing main connection, a loose neutral, or a serious panel fault — which can damage appliances and, in some cases, create a fire risk. Don't keep flipping breakers; call us so a licensed electrician can find the real cause safely.
