Common Signs Your Heating System Needs Repair

Higher Energy Costs

Sudden hikes in your electricity bill may be attributed to a broken thermostat, dirty filter, duct leak or other faulty mechanism. These problems will force your system to work harder to heat your property to its desired temperature. Even properly maintained HVAC systems lose heating capacities around 25% or more after 15 to 20 years of use.

Cold Spots in Your Home

A clear indication of a failing heating system is uneven distribution of heat in your home or business. If you notice cool or cold spots in areas that should be heated, or if you feel the need to constantly adjust your heaters settings and temperatures, your system needs repair services.

Weak Airflow

Poor airflow is often caused by lack of proper maintenance or a dirty air filter. An experienced HVAC expert can diagnose the problem and properly remove debris or blockages from your HVAC system. Poor maintenance and dirty air filters are the leading cause of poor indoor air quality. Your HVAC system will disperse dust and debris into your home or business, causing allergies and other health complications.

Contact Bill Howe to learn more about improving your indoor air quality.

Abnormal Noises

If you are experiencing irregular, loud banging, scraping, rattle, clanks, or screeches during system operation, you may need professional heater repair services. An experienced technician will determine if the motor bearing, thermostat or compressor needs to be replaced, working parts need to be tightened, or if debris or other obstructions have been lodged in your system and need to be removed.

Persistent Odors or Smells

Heating systems typically emit the light faint smell of gas. However, a consistent and strong gaseous odor should be cause for concern as your system may have a gas leak.

Additionally, if you smell smoldering plastic or rubber, a part may be burning slowly and will inevitably fail. A stale musty smell is likely attributed to biological growth like mold or bacteria. If your system is emitting inexplicable odors, it is best to contact a professional for heater repair.

These common signs are indications your heating system is not operating properly or safely and may need to be repaired by a professional. When you need reliable repairs, call the HVAC experts at Bill Howe Heating and Air.

How to Prevent Furnace Breakdowns

Has it been more than one year since your last furnace tune up? Annual furnace tune ups are recommended for the safety and efficiency of your HVAC system. Furnaces use fuel to provide heat to your home or business. Without regular maintenance, this can lead to harmful carbon monoxide levels or dangerous gas leaks.

During a furnace tune up, system controls and levels are checked, ensuring your system is working properly and optimally, reducing the likelihood of breakdowns and unexpected repairs.

Bill Howe Heating and Air offers a 15-point safety inspection and furnace tune up to help keep your system properly maintained and at peak performance.

How much does it cost to repair a heater?

An average heater repair service could typically run $350 and more. A flame sensor, transformer and igniter are relatively inexpensive to repair. Fixing the condenser & evaporator coil, heat exchanger or blower motor is considerably higher. Costs would also vary on the heater brand and model.

How long do heaters typically last?

Depending on the type of heater brand owned, a gas heater lasts on average between 15 and 20 years while an electric heater can operate between 20 to 30 years. Regularly scheduled maintenance and tune up ensure maximum and efficient operation.

What causes a heater to stop working?

Lack of regularly scheduled heater maintenance is the #1 cause
Thermostat issues
Non operative blower capacitor needs to be replaced
Refrigerant levels are too low
Ductwork needs to be properly serviced

Testimonials

Over the last 20 years I managed the construction of several large server rooms and professional office spaces. I worked with some of the best commercial contractors in the world. I am very picky about HVAC work. I was very impressed with my recent residential installation of the heating and air conditioning pump and furnace system by Bill Howe’s team. The lead did work that was on par with the best commercial installations I’ve managed. Bravo!
