Stay Warm with Reliable Heating Repairs
Heating systems rarely fail without warning, and if you know what signs to watch for, you can avoid system failure. Pay attention to these warning signs and call us right away if you notice any of them.
Unusual Odors: When you turn on your heating system, does it smell funky? Different smells can indicate specific problem areas. If it’s been a few months since you last turned on the system, you may smell burning, but that’s usually just dust burning and should disappear in a few hours. A persistent burning smell is abnormal. A musty odor may indicate mold or mildew growth that needs to be cleaned. A rotten egg smell may be warning you of a gas leak while chemical smells could indicate a carbon monoxide leak. Electrical, rubber, plastic, and metallic smells point to issues with overheating parts or wiring.
Odd Noises: When you start up your heating system, it should make the usual start-up sounds like the humming of the motor operating. Loud banging, clanging, or buzzing is abnormal. These odd noises point to problems like loose parts, worn-out belts, or broken parts. A banging sound points to problems with the furnace ignition system. Whistling noises may be caused by objects in ductwork, loose ducts, or a dirty air filter.
Cold Air/No Air: Your heating system should warm your entire home without cold spots. The warm air should blow out of the vents at an even pressure and temperature. If you find cold areas in your home or you don’t feel warm air blowing from the vents, then your system is not functioning properly or efficiently. These issues could be caused by an issue with the pilot light, dirty air filters, thermostat malfunction, a clogged condensate line, or a faulty part.
Short Cycling: A heating system will turn off and on throughout the day to keep the temperature in your home steady. A system that is short cycling will turn off and on repeatedly for short periods of time, which wastes power and money and doesn’t heat your home properly. Short cycling happens for a variety of reasons, including thermostat malfunctions, a clogged air filter, a bad flame sensor, or an inadequately sized system.
Frequent Thermostat Adjustments: Thermostats tell the heating system what to do. If you find yourself adjusting the thermostat frequently to stay comfortable, get in touch with us right away. It could be a simple fix like replacing the thermostat battery or recalibrating it. Fixing this problem immediately will prevent overusing energy.
Abnormal Pilot Light Colors: Gas-powered furnaces use a pilot light as an ignition source. A blue flame means it’s functioning correctly. If it turns purple, orange, yellow, or red, that is a sign of a problem. The odd colors mean the gas may not be burning cleanly, there is too much gas, or there is not enough gas.
Increased Energy Bills: Utility bills fluctuate every season, but if there are wild swings in one direction, then that may indicate a problem with your heating system. You should check your energy bills often so you aren’t overpaying for a malfunctioning heater. If you notice high bills, contact us right away so we can inspect your system.
