Signs You Need a Furnace Repair
You don't always have to wait for the heater to completely break down before calling. Give us a call or send a text if your furnace is showing any of these common symptoms:
- Blowing cold air: The system is running, but the air coming out of the vents is lukewarm or freezing.
- Short cycling: The furnace turns on and off constantly without ever properly heating the house to the temperature set on the thermostat.
- Strange noises: Banging, squealing, or rattling sounds coming from the unit or the ductwork.
- Yellow burner flame: A healthy gas furnace should have a crisp blue flame. A yellow or orange flame can indicate a dirty burner or incomplete combustion.
- Unusual smells: A persistent burning dust smell that doesn't go away, or a musty odor. (Note: If you ever smell gas, turn off your system and call your utility company immediately!)

Common Furnace Fixes
A malfunctioning furnace doesn't always mean you need an expensive, brand-new system. Often, a furnace blowing cold air is simply a dirty flame sensor, a worn-out hot surface ignitor, or a failing run capacitor on the blower motor. These are straightforward, common fixes our lead technician can handle efficiently to restore your heat and extend the life of your equipment.
