Heating Repair Services
When the temperatures drop, homes depend on heating systems to keep them warm throughout the winter. Unfortunately, many homes will face problems with their systems and require repairs or even replacements of their units. Fortunately, we have expert technicians available to help with any heating issues a home may have.
Common Heating Issues
Homeowners need to take care of their furnace so it provides the needed heat to keep the home comfortable during the cold winter months. Proper care includes getting repairs at the first sign of a problem. However, some issues may be difficult to identify or may be mistaken for the normal function of the unit.
Some common problems homeowners should watch out for include:
- Frequent cycling. If the unit seems to turn on and off frequently throughout the day or does not seem to complete a cycle, it may be time to contact us
- Breaker tripping. If the furnace trips the breaker even once, there may be a serious issue that should be addressed by a professional.
- Getting too hot or too cold. If the temperature is not getting to the temperature set on the thermostat or it is going past that temperature, the thermostat may be malfunctioning.
- Strange smells. If any strange smells are coming from the system, having the unit checked for problems is a good idea.
- Strange noises. If strange bangs or other noises are coming from the unit, there may be an issue with the blower motor or fan that needs to be addressed.
- Not turning on or no heat. Both of these issues will often require professional care to find the cause and make the necessary repairs.
Timely Repairs
At the first sign of any problem, homeowners need to contact a professional. A professional technician can provide the Heating Repair needed to get the furnace working properly and keep the home safe and comfortable.
Delaying repairs on the home’s furnace is never a good idea. Even if the unit is heating the home, any issue should be addressed in a timely manner. Delaying repairs could create further issues and cause a minor issue to become a major problem.
For example, a furnace may be running properly and heating the home as it should. Out of nowhere, a strange noise begins to come from the unit every time the blower fan turns on. This problem is ignored due to the continued heating of the home. After some time, the blower fan no longer functions, and now the home does not get the needed heat.
The problem could have simply been a lack of lubrication for the blower fan motor or another minor issue. However, putting off repairs has now created serious damage to the unit that will cost far more than the original repair.
Proper Maintenance
The best way to keep a home’s heating system in good condition is to provide proper maintenance. This maintenance includes regular tune-ups for the system. It is recommended that the home’s heating system receive maintenance care and a tune-up at least once a year before the furnace will be in regular use.
Although it is recommended to have a trained professional perform this task, homeowners can provide this care if they are familiar with the process. During the scheduled maintenance, the unit will be thoroughly cleaned, inside and out. All filters will be cleaned or replaced as needed. A brush and vacuum can be used to remove all the debris from inside and around the unit.
Next, all moving parts will be inspected. If the unit requires lubrication, it will be applied at this time. Any worn belts will also be replaced during maintenance. The system will also be run to ensure that it is working properly and the thermostat is calibrated correctly.
During this time, any problems with the system’s functionality or efficiency will be identified by the professional. This early maintenance will provide homeowners with the time needed to make any repairs before the temperatures drop.
New System Installation
If during the maintenance process or even throughout the year, the technician finds that the system is beyond repair or no longer efficient, the technician may suggest replacing the unit. Fortunately, a technician can help homeowners with this process.
Not only will the technician offer a replacement option for the homeowner, but the expert can provide professional installation of the system to ensure the home is ready for the winter.
