Common Heating Repairs We Tackle

Whether it’s a gas or electric furnace, a heat pump, or a boiler, we offer a full range of heating repair services to keep you nice and toasty all winter long! Below are some common heating problems we tackle:

  • Dirty or clogged air filters. A clogged filter makes your furnace work harder and reduces airflow. We can replace the filter and check for other damage to keep your heating system running smoothly.
  • Ignition and pilot light problems. A failed ignition or pilot light can leave your home without heat during the colder months. We use advanced diagnostic equipment to resolve these issues with care and efficiency.
  • Malfunctioning blower motor. Unusual sounds and weak airflow are signs of a struggling blower motor. We can inspect the motor and recommend potential repairs or replacement if needed.
  • Cracked heat exchanger. This is a dangerous issue due to the risk of carbon monoxide leaks. Our highly trained experts can assess the damage and recommend safe solutions to protect your household. 
  • Frequent cycling. If your heater keeps turning on and off, it could be due to thermostat issues, airflow blockages, or improper sizing. We can help you identify the root cause to prevent additional energy waste. 
  • No heat. Is your heater failing to produce heat? Whether it’s a tripped breaker, faulty ignitor, or wiring issue, we can troubleshoot the problem and get your system up and running again as soon as possible.

Why Are There Cold Spots in My Home?

If you notice cold spots in your home, some possible causes include leaky ductwork, blocked vents, and poor insulation. Our technicians can evaluate your system setup to pinpoint the problem and restore consistent heating. We also offer professional duct cleaning services to keep your HVAC system running optimally!

Should I Repair or Replace My Heater?

Recurring heating issues can be a real headache for homeowners. If you’re wondering if you should repair or replace your existing heater, here are some key factors to consider: 

  • Age. Older heaters are prone to frequent breakdowns and inefficiency. If your heater is more than 15-20 years old, it may be more cost-effective to replace it. 
  • Repairs. If your heater requires frequent repairs that cost more than half the price of a new heater, replacing it is likely the smarter investment. 
  • Efficiency. Older heaters run less efficiently. If your current system is driving up your monthly bills, installing a new one may improve comfort while keeping energy costs low.

We pride ourselves on our reputation for honesty and dependability, which is why we always review all possible repair options before recommending a replacement. Reach out today to learn more about our warranty and upfront pricing!
