FAQs Regarding Heating Repair

Our customers often ask us questions when they call us for furnace repair. Here are some of the more common questions that we hear. We hope the answers help you understand your furnace and what you can do to protect it.

Why Is My Heating System Not Working?

Having a professional technician conduct a point-by-point inspection could help you identify common furnace problems. If you haven’t contacted a professional yet or are waiting for a service call, you can gather some information yourself to answer the question.

First, check the thermostat settings to make sure the furnace is on and that the temperature settings are correct. Your thermostat may also provide warnings or diagnostic information.

Next, check the pilot light. If it is not lit, there might be a problem with the air supply to the combustion chamber, a buildup of dirt, or a faulty part causing the pilot light to shut off. If the pilot light is orange instead of blue, the flame does not have a good oxygen supply. Newer furnaces display flash codes that indicate the status of the pilot light.

Check that your carbon monoxide detector is working and has fresh batteries. One reason that your furnace might not be working is that the combustion chamber is not getting enough fuel or air. If the fuel burns abnormally, it could produce toxic flue gas. If your carbon monoxide detector goes off, get yourself, your family, and your pets outside and call for emergency service.

As you investigate your heater, make a note of everything that seems odd or different. Tell your furnace repair technician to help them diagnose the problem.
How Do I Fix My Home Heater?

Because forced-air furnaces have a gas supply, electrical components, and a source of flame, it can be dangerous to try to fix your home heater by yourself. It is best to contact a professional for any job that requires electrical work, new parts, or repairing the combustion chamber.

One job that homeowners might be able to do themselves is cleaning out ductwork and filters. You should make a habit of changing your furnace filter at least once every three months. New filters should slide into place next to the furnace.

Many home furnace repairs require replacement parts, like the heat exchanger, blower belt, blower bearings, gas valve, or other crucial components. Your furnace repair technician should have tools on hand to identify worn-out or damaged parts and fix them or replace them.
How Do I Know When My Heater Needs Service?
It is generally a good idea to call a professional furnace repair company and schedule preventative maintenance in the fall to make sure that your furnace is running well and fix any problems that might arise.

Even if you have had regular maintenance, you should call a furnace repair technician if:
- your furnace is not heating your home effectively or reliably
- your furnace is making strange hissing, gurgling, or banging noises
- the air coming out of your heat vents smells bad
- your gas bill (or electric bill if you have electric heating) has gone up suddenly
- you see corrosion or visible damage to your furnace
- you are adding square footage to your house and increasing the workload for your heating system
