We are the best heating repair company to call when your furnace isn’t working properly or at all. These are some of the most common reasons for a furnace failure and some basic troubleshooting tips before you make your service call.

Furnace does not blow air

• Check circuit breaker is not tripped, If it is, push it back to the ON position. Do not keep resetting it if it keeps tripping. This indicates a bigger problem with your furnace.
• Check the furnace wall switch,
• Check the thermostat is functional and set to “Heat”
• Check the vents, and make sure the supply vents (the ones that push warm air out) didn’t close accidentally. The return vents (those that pull cold air from your house) are not blocked by anything.

Furnace blows cool air

• Check the thermostat is set to “Heat”,
• Check the filter, a dirty filter restricts airflow and can lead to furnace problems,
• Check the gas is on
• Sometimes restarting your furnace may solve the issue.

Generally, if your furnace is older than 10 years, it might be on its way out, so it might be time to replace it.

After you’ve gone through the above basic troubleshooting and your furnace is still not working, call High Efficiency for professional diagnosis and repair service.

Call for furnace service if you notice any of the following issues:

• Utility Bills Spike: If your utility bills spike suddenly, your heater may have lost efficiency and is working harder than before.
• Unusual Noises: A banging or rattling sound indicates that something is wrong with your furnace.
• Unusual Smells: Gas leaks can cause unusual smells, and they are dangerous.
• Frequent Cycling: It’s normal for your furnace to turn on more often during the oldest days, but it shouldn’t turn on and off rapidly. Short cycling may be a sign of a big problem.

An HVAC system that is properly maintained will use 20-30% less energy than one that is not maintained, making HVAC tune-Ups a great investment. As a result, tune-Up costs can be offset by reduced energy costs, avoiding costly repairs and premature heating system replacement.

Annual heating maintenance are covered under our Service Membership Program.

Although most furnaces last between 10 and 15 years, regular maintenance and tune-ups will ensure they perform at their best. Here are a few easy and inexpensive things you could do.

• Replace or clean the air filter regularly: Air filters prevent dirt, dust, pet hair, and other debris from entering your HVAC system. A clogged filter reduces airflow into the furnace, causing overheating and forcing the furnace to shut off. Keep your filters clean and changed every three months for maximum effectiveness.
• Check the flue: Be sure to check it regularly, especially after a storm, to ensure it is ventilated well.
• Correctly set your room’s temperature: Our standard recommendation is to set your room’s temperature at 21-22’C to be comfortable and to keep the utility bills low. The main concern in the winter is dryness. Always use a humidifier.
• Don’t block the vents: Be sure nothing is blocking the vents, such as furniture or boxes. A blocked vent prevents the furnace from receiving enough air, causing it to overheat and shut off.
• Call professionals for furnace tune-up: A professional can identify potential problems that may grow into a bigger problem if left unattended.
