FAQs
What are the most common signs that my heating system needs repair?
Watch for uneven temperatures, strange noises (grinding, banging, squealing), unusually high energy bills, frequent cycling on and off, or the system blowing cool air. If you smell gas or notice the furnace won’t start at all, shut it down and call us immediately—these can be safety issues requiring prompt professional attention.
Do you service every make and model of furnaces and heat pumps in Dunlap?
Yes. Our technicians are factory-trained and certified to diagnose and repair all major brands of gas furnaces, electric furnaces, heat pumps, and hybrid systems. We stock a wide range of OEM and universal parts on our service trucks so most repairs can be completed on the first visit, regardless of brand or model year.
How quickly can you respond to a no-heat emergency in Dunlap?
During the heating season we provide 24/7 emergency service. Calls received before 5 p.m. are typically handled the same day, and after-hours or weekend calls are dispatched within two hours. Because we’re located minutes from downtown Dunlap, travel time is short and our on-call technicians are equipped to start repairs immediately upon arrival.
My furnace is over 15 years old. Should I repair it again or replace it?
A repair often makes sense if the unit is under 15 years old, the heat exchanger is intact, and the repair cost is less than 30 % of the price of a new system. However, if the unit is 15–20 years old, has recurring breakdowns, or the heat exchanger is cracked, replacement is usually the safest and most cost-effective option. We provide free replacement estimates and can compare payback periods based on Dunlap’s typical winter climate and current energy rates.
What does a typical heat repair visit cost in Dunlap?
Our diagnostic fee is $89, which includes a complete system inspection and a written quote before any work begins. Common repairs such as igniter replacement or flame-sensor cleaning range from $150 to $300, while more involved repairs like blower motor or control board replacement can run $400 to $800. All prices include parts, labor, and a 1-year warranty on workmanship.
How can I prevent future heating breakdowns and keep my warranty valid?
Schedule professional maintenance every fall. Our tune-up includes cleaning burners, testing safety controls, checking refrigerant (for heat pumps), tightening electrical connections, and verifying carbon-monoxide levels. Change or wash air filters monthly during heavy use, keep supply and return vents unobstructed, and install a programmable thermostat to reduce system strain. Regular maintenance not only prevents 70 % of unexpected failures but also satisfies most manufacturers’ warranty requirements.
