Common Furnace Problems
Furnaces can experience a range of issues that disrupt your home’s comfort. Here are some common problems we routinely address:
- Pilot Light Issues – This small flame is vital for your furnace’s functionality. We can get your pilot light back on if it’s not igniting or staying lit.
- Thermostat Troubles – A faulty thermostat can cause uneven heating or your system to stop responding altogether.
- Dirty Filters or Components – Accumulated dust and debris can reduce your furnace’s efficiency or lead to breakdowns.
- Insufficient Heating – If your furnace is running but not heating properly, it could be due to a damaged heat exchanger or airflow issues.
Signs You Need Furnace Repair Services
Don’t ignore warning signs of a furnace problem, or the problem will just get bigger and more expensive to repair. Some furnace issues can even be dangerous to the safety of your home or your family’s health. Call us to schedule furnace repair if you notice any of these issues:
- Cold spots around your home
- Strange noises like banging, rattling, or hissing
- Foul odors like a musty, moldy, or burning smell
- Increasing energy bills
- Yellow or orange pilot light
- Weak or no airflow from your vents
- Frequently tripped breakers
- Water leaks
- Rapid cycling
- Inconsistent thermostat readings
- Poor indoor air quality
Choosing Between Furnace Repair vs Furnace Replacement
Our technicians will always be upfront and transparent about the services you need and what they will cost. We’ll never try to convince you to pay for something you don’t need or want. We can guide you through the process of deciding if furnace repair or furnace replacement will be more cost-effective for your home. Some factors we will consider are:
- Age – If your furnace is over 15 years old, it may be more cost-effective and safer to replace it rather than invest in repeated repairs.
- Condition – A furnace that is in poor condition may be inefficient and unsafe and will likely need more frequent and more expensive repairs. Replacing it may help you save money on energy costs and repairs.
- Safety – Older furnaces or ones that were installed improperly or haven’t had proper maintenance may be unsafe.
- Performance – If your furnace’s performance has been steadily decreasing and it is more than 15 years old, replacing it may be the better choice.
- Energy Efficiency – Newer furnaces are more energy efficient, and upgrading your furnace could lower your annual energy costs.
- History of Maintenance and Repairs – If your furnace has required frequent repairs or if the timing and cost of repairs have been increasing, you might be better off investing in an upgrade rather than future repairs. If you haven’t kept up with furnace maintenance over the years and your system is in disrepair, the cost of replacing your furnace may be close to the cost of repairing it.
- Cost and Budget – If furnace repairs will cost 30% or more than the cost of replacing it, you’re better off investing in a replacement. However, if it just isn’t in your budget right now, you may be able to get away with repairs until you can afford a new furnace.
Preventing Future Issues With Furnace Maintenance
Preventive maintenance is proactive inspections, tune-ups, and repairs that enhance the lifespan of your furnace. Keeping up with furnace maintenance can offer a wide range of benefits, including:
- Reduced energy bills
