South West Is A Professional, Licensed Heating Repair Company In Seattle, WA
If you have a gas, oil, or electric heating system, wear and tear will occur and eventually cause issues that will lead to repair or even replacement. You may not use your furnace all year, but it’s still important to have licensed HVAC technicians inspect and repair it (if necessary) in time for cooler temperatures.
When Does a Heating System Need Repair?
If you’re noticing signs that your heating system isn’t performing as it should, it’s crucial to address these issues promptly. Problems like inadequate heat, unusual odors, or strange noises can indicate underlying issues that require professional evaluation.
Ignoring these warning signs can lead to decreased efficiency and higher energy bills, not to mention potential safety hazards. These are some common signs that it’s time to call an expert:
- No heat in one or more areas
- Detection of unusual smells or gas odors
- Pilot light is out
- Odd noises from the furnace, such as squealing or rumbling
- Furnace runs constantly or cycles rapidly
- Tripped or blown circuit breaker or fuse
- Malfunctioning thermostat
- Blower fan that continues to run
In addition to these issues, you should also consider seeking professional HVAC help if you have:
- An old coal burner that has been converted to oil or gas
- A gas furnace with a pilot light (which is 15% less efficient than newer models)
- A gas furnace without a vent damper or induced draft fan (limiting airflow)
- Rising utility bills
- Discomfort in your home
- A furnace that’s over 10 years old
Addressing these problems early can help ensure your heating system operates efficiently and safely, providing you with the comfort you deserve.
