With our chilliest month upon us, it goes without saying
that we all need our heaters to work as effectively and efficiently as possible.
Regular maintenance and timely repair are essential to meet your heating needs and ensure your home stays warm during the coldest months.
And yours will! As long as you’ve kept up on your maintenance visits and followed up with recommended repairs. If you haven’t scheduled maintenance yet, it’s not too late. Yes, it is most ideal to schedule it in the early fall, before you need your furnace the most. But it’s more important that you schedule this service consistently, once a year, than it is the time of year you have it done. Skipping routine service can lead to higher repair costs down the line, making it more expensive to keep your system running and your home comfortable.
Still though, even with maintenance, things can go wrong with your furnace, particularly if it’s aging or if it was poorly installed. Common signs of furnace trouble include unusual noises, weak or inconsistent airflow, strange smells, higher energy bills, and short cycling. Read on as we uncover some of the most common furnace problems we get called for and explanations for what’s happening.
