Frequently Asked Questions
Why is my furnace running but not producing heat?
Common causes include a failed igniter or flame sensor (gas furnace), a faulty heat exchanger, low gas pressure, a tripped safety limit switch, or a clogged air filter causing overheating and shutdown. Our technician will run a full diagnostic to pinpoint the exact issue before any repair is proposed.
How do I know if I need heating repair or a full replacement?
If your system is under 15 years old and the repair cost is reasonable relative to a new system, repair is almost always the better choice. If your furnace or heat pump is older than 15–20 years, has needed multiple recent repairs, or shows a cracked heat exchanger (a safety issue), replacement is often the smarter investment. We'll give you honest guidance, not a sales pitch.
Is it safe to run my furnace if I smell gas?
No. If you smell gas, leave the building immediately, don't use electrical switches or phones inside, and call your gas utility's emergency line from outside. Once the gas company clears the building, call us at 2563941989 to inspect and repair the furnace. A gas smell is a life-safety emergency.
Do you service heat pumps as well as gas furnaces?
Yes. We service all types of residential heating systems — gas furnaces, heat pumps, dual-fuel systems, electric furnaces, and boilers. Our technicians are trained and certified on both refrigerant-based heat pump systems and combustion-based furnaces.
