Sharkey's Heating And Air has been the HVAC contractor West Memphis and Crittenden County have counted on since 1990. Thirty-six years of showing up, doing the work right, and standing behind it. You're talking to someone who knows the area and the systems in it. When a central air conditioner quits on a July afternoon or a furnace goes cold in January, we already know the equipment running in these homes and businesses, and we know what it takes to get it right. Our experienced technicians who respect your home are the same people answering calls and pulling up in the driveway. Give us a call and we'll get the comfort back.
Not every HVAC company works the same way, and the difference usually shows up in the details. We started in 1990 as a small operation focused on doing honest work for local homeowners and businesses. West Memphis sits in a part of Arkansas where summers are long, humid, and unforgiving, and winter cold snaps can arrive fast and stay longer than anyone plans for. That climate keeps a heating and cooling contractor busy year-round, and it shaped how we built this business from the start.
Over the decades we grew alongside the community. We added qualified HVAC technicians as the workload called for it, expanded into commercial accounts, and kept refining how we handle everything from a routine seasonal tune-up to a full system replacement. What has stayed the same is the approach: show up on time, explain what we find, do code-compliant HVAC work, and leave the property better than we found it. Residential homeowners and commercial property managers across Crittenden County have come to expect that from us, and we intend to keep it that way. Call us and we'll walk you through your options.
Choosing the right HVAC fix is easier than it sounds, especially when you have a contractor who handles the full range of work under one roof. We cover every major heating and cooling need, from a quick repair to a complete system overhaul. Here is what we do:
Whatever the system, whatever the season, we are set up to handle it. One ring and we're rolling.
Scheduling service is straightforward.
Arkansas summers are not gentle. When the air conditioner stops cooling or starts cycling oddly, every hour counts. We handle the full range of residential AC work: units that are not cooling, compressors that have failed, refrigerant leaks, airflow problems causing uneven temperatures room to room, and full central air conditioner replacement when a system has run its course. We explain what we find before we start, and we give you a clear estimate so you know what the repair or installation will cost before we pick up a tool.
Winter in the Mid-South can catch homeowners off guard. A furnace that was running fine in October may not make it through a January cold snap without some attention. We respond to no-heat calls, diagnose furnace problems, and carry out furnace repair and replacement for gas and electric systems. We also install and service heat pumps, which are a practical fit for this climate and a common choice for homeowners looking for year-round efficiency. Emergency heating repair is available when the situation cannot wait.
Beyond the core heating and cooling equipment, there is a range of upgrades that make a real difference in how a home feels. We install programmable and smart thermostats that give you better control over your comfort and your energy use. We seal and repair ductwork that is losing conditioned air to unconditioned spaces, which is a common and often overlooked efficiency problem. We also install indoor air quality systems, including whole-home air purifiers and air scrubbers, and whole-home humidifiers that help manage the moisture levels that Arkansas weather tends to push around. We take pride in the HVAC work we leave behind, and that includes the upgrades that most contractors skip over. Call us and we'll handle the rest.
When the technician arrives, the real work begins, and for commercial clients, the stakes are higher. A restaurant that loses air conditioning in July, an office building where the heat goes out in winter, or a retail space with a rooftop unit that keeps tripping off, these are not situations that can wait days for a service window. We provide commercial HVAC repair, commercial AC repair, commercial heating repair, and full commercial HVAC installation and replacement for businesses across West Memphis and Crittenden County.
We work in offices, restaurants, retail spaces, and mixed-use properties. Our commercial HVAC technicians are familiar with rooftop units, multi-zone systems, and the kind of equipment that keeps a business running. We schedule around your operation when we can, we communicate clearly about what we find and what it will cost, and we deliver code-compliant HVAC work on every job. Same-day HVAC service is available for commercial emergencies. Give us a call and we'll get the comfort back.
When the heat or the AC quits, the last thing you need is a contractor who shows up, does a quick look, and hands you a bill with numbers that do not add up. We handle pricing differently. Before any repair or installation work begins, we walk you through what we found, what needs to happen, and what it will cost. That applies to AC repair estimates, furnace repair estimates, heat pump installation costs, and full HVAC system replacement quotes. You call us, we assess the situation, and we give you honest numbers.
Fair price each visit. On time each visit. Code-compliant every time.
An HVAC emergency does not follow a business calendar. A system that goes down on a Friday night in August or a Sunday morning in February needs attention right away, not Monday at the earliest. We offer emergency HVAC service around the clock, covering emergency AC repair, emergency furnace repair, and emergency heat pump repair for both residential and commercial customers.
West Memphis summers are too hot and Mid-South winters are too unpredictable to leave a family or a business without conditioned air for long. When you call, we move. Same-day HVAC service is available for situations that cannot wait. Pick the date. We do the work. We clean up after.
We are based in West Memphis and serve all of Crittenden County, along with the communities nearby. If you are in the area and need a heating or cooling contractor, we are close and ready to respond.

| Service Type | What the Service Includes | When You Need It | Good to Know |
|---|---|---|---|
| Heat Pump Installation | ducted heat pump system installation, ductless mini-split installation, refrigerant line set work, full commissioning to rated efficiency | homeowners upgrading from older equipment or adding comfort to a room or addition without existing ductwork | West Memphis winters are mild enough that a heat pump handles most of the heating load efficiently, and it cools in summer the same way a central air system does. |
| Indoor Air Quality & Air Filtration | whole-home air filtration installation, UV air purifier and air scrubber setup, allergen and odor control, integration with existing HVAC equipment | households dealing with allergens, odors, or air quality concerns throughout the home | A standard filter does not address indoor air quality fully. Whole-home systems work through the existing equipment and cover every room. |
| Emergency HVAC Service | same-day no-heat and no-cool response, priority scheduling for urgent calls, after-hours availability including weekends, fast diagnosis and repair | anyone whose system has gone completely down, especially during extreme heat or cold | We take calls and schedule service every day from 6:00 AM to 10:30 PM, including weekends. A system that quits on Saturday does not have to wait until Monday. |
| Heat Pump Repair & Service | refrigerant circuit diagnosis, reversing valve and coil inspection, mode-switching and efficiency testing, controls and thermostat verification | homeowners whose heat pump has stopped switching modes or lost heating or cooling capacity | Heat pumps are well suited to the mild winters in this part of the Mid-South. Catching a fault early keeps efficiency high. |
| Heating & Furnace Repair | ignition and heat exchanger diagnosis, blower and control-board testing, cold-air and short-cycle troubleshooting, full system check after repair | anyone whose furnace won't fire, blows cold air, or shuts off before the house warms up | Fall tune-ups catch ignition and heat exchanger issues before they become cold-night emergencies. |
| Seasonal Maintenance & Tune-Ups | coil cleaning and refrigerant check, heat exchanger and controls inspection, lubrication of moving parts, season-readiness confirmation | homeowners who want fewer breakdowns and longer equipment life | A spring AC tune-up and a fall heating tune-up are the simplest way to protect the investment in your HVAC system. |
| Full System Installation & Replacement | old equipment removal, new furnace and central air installation, air handler connection and commissioning, full system run-and-confirm before we leave | homeowners or property managers replacing aging equipment or a system that has failed beyond repair | Current equipment runs at significantly higher efficiency ratings than units installed ten or fifteen years ago. We walk you through sizing and options before the job starts. |
| Whole-Home Dehumidification & Humidity Control | whole-home dehumidifier sizing and installation, integration with existing HVAC equipment, moisture and mold-risk reduction, comfort and air quality improvement | homes in West Memphis and Crittenden County where summer humidity makes the air conditioner work harder than it should | A muggy house feels warmer than it is and promotes mold growth. A whole-home dehumidifier lets you stay comfortable at a higher thermostat setting. |
| Thermostat & Smart-Control Installation | programmable and smart thermostat setup, Nest and Ecobee configuration, wiring verification for your specific system, comfort-setting walkthrough | homeowners who want better control over comfort and energy use | A thermostat that reads the wrong temperature or miscommunicates with the system wastes energy every day it runs. |
| AC Repair & Service | refrigerant and leak checks, condenser and compressor diagnosis, capacitor and contactor testing, airflow and cooling confirmation | homeowners or tenants whose central air has stopped cooling or quit entirely | Most repairs are completed in a single visit. We give you a clear price before any work begins. |
| Ductwork Repair & Sealing | duct leak location and sealing, damaged section repair, airflow testing after work, attic and crawl-space duct inspection | homes with uneven temperatures, high energy bills, or a system that runs longer than it should | Leaky ducts push conditioned air into attics and wall cavities instead of into the rooms where it belongs. Sealing them is one of the highest-value improvements we make. |
How do I know if my AC or furnace needs to be replaced rather than repaired?
Age and repair history are the two biggest factors. If a system is more than fifteen years old and has needed repeated repairs, replacement usually makes more financial sense than putting more money into aging equipment. We walk you through the numbers honestly so you can make the call that fits your situation and your budget.
What are the signs of a refrigerant or airflow problem?
A system that runs constantly but does not cool the house, ice forming on the refrigerant lines or coil, warm air coming from the vents, or a noticeable drop in airflow through the registers can all point to a refrigerant or airflow issue. These problems get worse the longer they run, so it is worth calling us to run a diagnostic before the system fails entirely.
Why would one room be hotter or colder than the rest of the house?
Uneven temperatures usually come from duct leaks, a damper out of position, a blocked or undersized register, or a system that was not sized correctly for the layout of the home. We check the ductwork and airflow as part of our diagnostic so we can point to the actual cause rather than guess.
Same-Day and Emergency Availability
We take calls and schedule service every day from 6:00 AM to 10:30 PM, including weekends. No-heat and no-cool calls get priority, so a system that fails on a Saturday does not have to wait until Monday.
How often should I schedule maintenance and tune-ups?
Once a year for each side of the system is the standard: a spring tune-up before the cooling season and a fall tune-up before the heating season. In West Memphis, where both seasons put real demand on the equipment, staying on that schedule helps catch small problems before they become expensive failures.
Is a heat pump a good fit for a home in West Memphis?
For most homes in this area, yes. The winters here are mild enough that a heat pump handles the heating load efficiently without a backup system running constantly, and it cools in summer the same way a central air unit does. We can walk you through whether a ducted system or a ductless mini-split makes more sense for your home.
What does a seasonal tune-up actually cover?
During a tune-up we clean the coils, check the refrigerant charge, test and inspect the heat exchanger, verify controls and thermostat communication, lubricate moving parts, and confirm the system is ready for the season ahead. The goal is to find anything that could cause a breakdown before the weather puts the system under full load.
Upfront Quotes With No Surprise Fees
We give you a clear price before any work begins and we do not start a job without your approval. If a diagnosis uncovers something unexpected, we stop and talk you through it before we proceed.
Can duct leaks really raise my energy bills that much?
They can. When conditioned air escapes into an attic, crawl space, or wall cavity before it reaches the living space, the system runs longer to make up the difference. That extra run time shows up on the energy bill every month. Sealing the leaks and repairing damaged sections puts that air back where it belongs.
Do I need to be home when the technician comes out?
For most service calls, yes. The technician will need access to the indoor equipment, the outdoor unit, and the thermostat, and we give you a price and explain the findings before any work begins. If you have a specific scheduling situation, mention it when you call and we will work with you on timing.
Work Performed by Qualified HVAC Technicians
Every service call, installation, and repair is handled by experienced technicians who respect your home and meet code requirements for the work they perform.
What should I do right now if my heat or AC has completely stopped working?
Call us at (870) 629-7829 and describe what the system is doing. Check that the thermostat is set correctly and that the circuit breaker for the unit has not tripped, but beyond that, leave the system alone until the technician arrives. No-heat and no-cool calls get priority scheduling, and same-day service is available.
How does your pricing and estimate process work?
Before a technician touches anything, we give you a clear estimate of what the repair or installation will cost. We explain what we found and what it takes to fix it so there are no surprises on the invoice. No work starts without your approval, and we do not add charges after the fact without explaining why.
How can whole-home dehumidification improve comfort in West Memphis?
Humidity in this part of Arkansas is significant enough that a muggy house feels warmer than the thermostat reads, which leads people to set the AC lower than they need to. A whole-home dehumidifier installs directly into the HVAC system and pulls excess moisture out of the air as it circulates through the equipment. The result is a more comfortable house at a higher thermostat setting and better air quality throughout.
Every home and every system is a little different, so call us at (870) 629-7829 and we will talk through what you are seeing, what the options are, and what it will cost before anyone comes out.
