Same-day diagnosis on most no-heat calls, and a straight answer on whether the furnace is worth repairing.
A furnace that will not heat usually comes down to ignition, airflow, or a safety control doing its job. Start by checking that the filter is clean, the thermostat is calling for heat, and the furnace door switch is properly seated. If the unit is short-cycling or the flame keeps dropping out, stop guessing and call us, because those symptoms can involve the heat exchanger.
Furnace faults cluster around a handful of causes, and knowing which one you are looking at tells you whether this is a cheap fix or a serious conversation.
The most common no-heat call. A dirty flame sensor stops the furnace proving its flame, so it lights and shuts down a few seconds later, over and over. Cleaning it is routine work.
A blocked filter or closed returns make the furnace overheat and trip its high limit. It feels like an electrical fault and is usually a $5 filter.
This is the one that matters. A cracked heat exchanger can put combustion gases into the air you breathe, and it is not a repair, it is a replacement. We inspect it on every no-heat call and we will show you what we found rather than asking you to take our word for it.
Two things decide it: the age of the unit and the cost of the fix. If the furnace is under about twelve years old and the repair is a sensible fraction of replacement cost, repair it. If it is older, the repair is major, and the efficiency is poor, you will spend the difference again in running costs.
We give you both numbers and let you choose. If replacement is the better call, financing means you can do it on your timetable.
If all of that checks out and it still will not run, call and we will get someone to you. Emergency service runs 24 hours, and Comfort Care Membership members get 10% off the repair.
Most repairs land in a few hundred dollars depending on the part, and we quote before we start so the invoice holds no surprises. Club members take 10% off whatever it comes to.
Yes, we run 24 hour emergency service. Being based in Republic is what makes a night call practical rather than theoretical.
Short-cycling like that is usually a dirty flame sensor, a blocked filter causing an overheat trip, or a failing draft pressure switch. It is worth diagnosing quickly because some causes involve the heat exchanger.
Yes. It can allow combustion gases into your air supply, so the unit gets shut down rather than patched. It is the one furnace fault we will never talk you into living with.
We answer 24 hours. Tell us what the furnace is doing and we can often narrow it down on the call.
