We are prepared to resolve many common furnace issues, including:

• Thermostat issues. Malfunctioning thermostats can lead to inconsistent temperatures or complete system failures. Our technicians can diagnose and fix issues with both traditional and smart thermostats, restoring proper communication between your furnace and temperature control system.
• Dirty or clogged filters. Over time, furnace filters can become dirty or clogged, restricting airflow and reducing efficiency. We can replace filters to improve air quality and restore optimal performance.
• Ignition problems. Oil- and gas-based furnaces rely on functional ignition systems to operate correctly. If your pilot light won’t stay lit or your electronic ignition is failing, we can repair or replace the components to restore your furnace’s heating capability.
• Blower motor problems. A faulty blower motor can disrupt the distribution of warm air throughout your home. Our technicians have the skills to repair or replace motors so that you can enjoy consistent airflow and comfort.
• Worn belts and bearings. Belts and bearings can eventually wear out, leading to loud noises or reduced performance. We can handle replacements efficiently to minimize wear and tear on your furnace and keep it running smoothly.
• Heat exchanger cracks. A cracked heat exchanger can pose serious safety risks, such as carbon monoxide leaks. Our experts can assess damage and make necessary repairs to protect your home and family.

Understanding Furnace Troubleshooting

When your furnace isn’t working properly, troubleshooting can help pinpoint the issue before calling in a professional. Here are some common problems and their potential causes:

• Furnace Not Turning On: Check the thermostat settings, ensure the system is on, and verify that the circuit breaker hasn’t tripped.
• No Heat or Blowing Cold Air: This could be due to a malfunctioning thermostat, dirty air filters, or a more complex issue like a faulty ignition system or heat exchanger.
• Strange Noises: Rattling, squealing, or banging noises could indicate a loose component, blocked ducts, or a malfunctioning blower motor.
• Constant Cycling: A furnace that continuously turns on and off could have a clogged air filter, improper thermostat settings, or a problem with the blower motor.

While troubleshooting can resolve simple issues, it’s best to call a professional if you’re unsure or the problem persists.

Signs & Symptoms: When Your Furnace Needs Professional Help

Addressing furnace problems quickly is crucial for maintaining a safe and comfortable home. Ignoring warning signs can lead to increased energy bills, compromised air quality, or even hazardous situations like carbon monoxide leaks. Recognizing known warning signs and seeking professional repairs early can save you from escalating problems or premature replacements down the line.

Reach out to our furnace repair professionals if you notice any of the following problems:

• Uneven heating. When you notice some areas of your home are warmer than others, it could signify problems with the blower motor, ducts, or thermostat. We can identify the root cause and make adjustments or repairs to improve consistent heating throughout your home.
• Unusual noises. If your furnace starts making loud or unfamiliar banging, rattling, or squealing sounds, it may indicate issues with internal components like belts, bearings, or the blower motor. Our technicians can diagnose the source of the noise and perform the necessary repairs to restore quiet and efficient operation.
• Frequent cycling. A furnace that frequently turns on and off may have a malfunctioning thermostat, clogged filter, or airflow restriction. By addressing these problems, we can optimize your furnace’s performance and reduce wear on its components.
• Rising energy bills. A sudden increase in energy costs without a change in usage habits often points to reduced furnace efficiency. Our experts can inspect and clean your furnace, replace aging parts, and help restore its operational efficiency to reduce energy consumption.
• Yellow pilot light. The pilot light on your furnace should burn blue. A yellow or flickering flame can indicate a carbon monoxide issue or improper combustion. This is a serious safety concern, and our team is equipped to address it swiftly to protect your home.
• Strange odors. If you smell burning or an unpleasant odor when your furnace is in use, it could be due to dirty components, overheating, or gas leaks. We can safely identify and fix the problem to prevent potential hazards.
