When you compare our climate to that of other parts of the country, you can\u2019t really call our winters \u201charsh.\u201d But just because we don\u2019t have bone-chillingly cold winters\u2014and even that is debatable, depending on who you ask\u2014doesn\u2019t mean our winters aren\u2019t cold enough to need a fully functional and efficiently operating heater on our side. Could you imagine on the coldest evening, going to turn on your heater to discover it doesn\u2019t work?<\/p>\n
We would like to help you avoid that altogether! Of course, the best way to avoid it is with routine maintenance. Maintenance allows our technicians to thoroughly inspect, clean, and adjust your heater\u2019s components while also alerting you to repair needs. Even with maintenance though, it\u2019s important to note that at some point you will <\/em>need repairs. Taking care of them as soon as possible is the best gift you can give yourself over the holiday season. But how do you know if you need them? Read on for some tell-tale signs.<\/p>\n Do you hear concerning sounds you\u2019ve never heard before coming from your furnace or heat pump? If so, you need a professional technician to check in out. Any noise that\u2019s outside of the normal whoosh of air or gentle fluctuation of the ductwork is important to pay attention to. Give us a call if you hear intense rattling, screeching, squealing, banging, or excessive clicking.<\/p>\n Short-cycling describes the process where your heater turns on and off rapidly, never actually completing a full heating cycle. This can actually happen with an air conditioner as well\u2014where it never completes a full cooling cycle. It\u2019s a sign of something electrical going amiss within your system and it requires immediate attention. Short-cycling is unfortunately both the symptom of a problem and the cause of further problems.<\/p>\n Have you discovered that your home is a lot dustier than usual? This is actually an issue with your heating system. We really want to stress this problem since it\u2019s one that homeowners often brush off, or don\u2019t even realize is a problem that could stem from their heater.<\/p>\n When you see excessive amounts of dust in your home, it\u2019s sometimes because it\u2019s constantly getting circulated in the ventilation system. You need an HVAC pro from our team to assess your ductwork and determine if you need any additional sealing or repair services to avoid this problem in the future.<\/p>\n A lack of heat coming from your furnace or heat pump isn\u2019t exactly subtle. But oftentimes homeowners write this off\u2014when it\u2019s really <\/em>cold outside it can be easy to assume that the heater is just struggling to keep up with the cold temperatures. But this should never be the case\u2014the heating elements should always be able to adequately heat up.<\/p>\n There may be a couple of problems at play here. First, if you have a heat pump it could be that it got stuck in cooling or \u201cfan-only\u201d mode somehow. It may also be that your ductwork is damage and that heated air is escaping into some unused portion of your home like the attic or crawlspace. Whatever the case, our team can handle it!
