FAQs

What are common signs that my heating system needs repair?

There are several indicators that your heating system may need repair. These include unusual noises (such as banging or screeching), inconsistent heating, higher energy bills, frequent cycling (turning on and off), and a constantly running blower. If you notice any of these issues, it's best to get your system evaluated by a professional.

How often should I have my heating system serviced?

It's recommended to have your heating system serviced at least once a year, preferably before the cold season begins. Regular maintenance can help ensure your system is running efficiently, reduce the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns, and extend the lifespan of your equipment.

What should I do if my heating system stops working?

First, check your thermostat settings to ensure it is set to 'heat' and the temperature is set correctly. Next, make sure your circuit breaker hasn't tripped and that your furnace switch is on. If these steps don't resolve the issue, it's advisable to contact a professional technician to diagnose and repair the problem.

How can I improve the efficiency of my heating system?

There are several ways to improve the efficiency of your heating system. Regular maintenance, such as cleaning or replacing filters and scheduling annual tune-ups, can make a significant difference. Additionally, sealing leaks in your ductwork, installing a programmable thermostat, and ensuring your home is well-insulated can help enhance efficiency and reduce energy costs.

Why is my furnace making strange noises?

Strange noises from your furnace, such as banging, rattling, or screeching, often indicate an issue that requires attention. Possible causes include loose components, a failing blower motor, clogged burners, or issues with the ignition system. It's best to have a professional technician inspect your furnace to identify and resolve the problem.

Is it better to repair or replace my heating system?

The decision to repair or replace your heating system depends on several factors, including the age of your system, the cost and frequency of repairs, and the efficiency of your current unit. Generally, if your system is over 15 years old and requires frequent repairs, or if you're experiencing significantly higher energy bills, it may be more cost-effective to invest in a new, more efficient unit. A professional technician can help you weigh the pros and cons and make an informed decision.
