Signs Your Furnace Needs Repair

When your furnace isn't working it could be due to a number of different reasons. Some of the most common furnace issues are the result of a lack of proper furnace maintenance, dirty filters, clogged vents, a malfunctioning thermostat, or just regular wear and tear. It's important to recognize the signs that your furnace needs to be serviced and have it fixed as soon as possible to avoid more costly repairs if they go unfixed.

While you may be able to fix your furnace on your own, we recommend contacting an HVAC professional to avoid expensive furnace repair mistakes. 

Some common signs your furnace needs repair include:

  1. Your furnace isn't blowing hot air: If you notice that your furnace is on but cold air is coming out of your vents, it could indicate there is a problem with your furnace. This could be due to issues with the gas supply, flame detector, air filters, condensate lines, or pilot light.
  2. Weird furnace smells: It is normal to sometimes smell the fuel being burned by a gas furnace when it starts up but, this smell should go away as the unit runs. If you notice a strong gas smell around the unit, any sudden odor coming from your furnace, or smells that won't go away you likely have furnace problems and should contact an HVAC professional to diagnose the issue. This could be a sign of a gas leak which is very dangerous.
  3. Your pilot light isn't blue or is blinking: A blue pilot light means your furnace is receiving a steady supply of fuel. If your pilot light is yellow, red, green, or blinking it's a sign your furnace isn't working correctly. If your pilot light is yellow this could be a sign of a carbon monoxide leak, shut off your furnace immediately and contact an HVAC professional to get the leak fixed. 
  4. Your furnace has trouble starting: Over time your furnace and related parts will age and wear down and may have trouble getting started and staying running. If you have to keep restarting your furnace or getting it to turn on throughout the day it's probably time for your furnace to be serviced by an HVAC professional. 
  5. Your furnace is making loud or unusual noises: Furnaces aren't 100% silent but if you are hearing very loud noises or noises that won't go away, it could indicate that there are issues with your furnace. Paying attention to the sounds you hear (e.g., bangs, whistling, squealing, groans) can help your HVAC professional diagnose your furnace problems faster. 
  6. Higher than Normal Energy Bills: If you're noticing your energy bills have skyrocketed this could be an indicator that there is something wrong with your furnace. If you have dirty air ducts, dirty air filters, or other issues that cause your filter to work harder to heat your space, it may be reflected in your energy bills. Contact an HVAC professional to address these issues so you can save money on your energy bill moving forward.

Benefits of Furnace Maintenance

Whether you have an electric or gas furnace it's important that you keep it properly maintained. Regular furnace maintenance can save you money, help you avoid costly breakdowns, and prevent health and safety hazards. Learn more about some of the biggest benefits of furnace maintenance below. 

Extend the Life of Your FurnaceProper furnace maintenance is the best way to extend the life of your furnace and avoid frequent repairs. You should have your furnace serviced in the fall so any repairs are taken care of before you really need it in the winter.

Save Money on Your Energy BillIf your furnace isn't well-maintained eventually it will have to work harder to heat your home or commercial property which can make your energy bill more expensive. Regular furnace maintenance ensures your furnace is running efficiently and can save you money on your energy bill.

Prevent Costly Furnace Repairs & BreakdownsIf you're a new homeowner or not familiar with the signs that your furnace needs to be fixed, you might be ignoring small issues that should be addressed before they become a bigger problem. Regular furnace maintenance makes sure that any minor issues are fixed before they create larger, more expensive, furnace problems and also saves you money long-term.

Catch Dangerous Carbon Monoxide & Gas LeaksGas leaks are very dangerous. Gas leaks create health and safety hazards such as carbon monoxide poisoning and explosions if left unchecked. Carbon monoxide is odorless and can kill you. When you don't have your furnace serviced regularly, you risk not noticing a gas leak until it's too late.

We always recommend our HVAC customers familiarize themselves with the signs of a gas leak in the home and the symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning. A good HVAC company will check for any gas leaks or issues that could lead to gas leaks as part of their furnace inspection and help you fix them. We offer HVAC maintenance plans to help our customers catch gas leaks before they become a problem to help keep them safe.

Furnace Replacement & Installation

Unfortunately, furnaces don't last forever. Someday your furnace is going to need to be replaced or updated. If you are frequently having to have your furnace serviced it might be time to consider a new unit. If you're building new properties and need to have furnaces installed it's important that they are installed properly to avoid any unnecessary issues that could cost you more money.

We are authorized furnace suppliers and are well-experienced with furnace installations. If you need a furnace installed we will get it done fast and will get the job done right. We do not cut corners. 

Furnace Installation FAQs

Making the decision to replace your old furnace or choosing a company to install your new furnace isn't something to take lightly. A furnace is a big expense and we want to make sure you have as much information to make informed decisions when it comes to your situation. Find answers to frequently asked questions about furnace installations below. 

How Long Do Furnaces Last on Average?The average lifespan of a properly maintained furnace ranges from 15 - 20. If you're diligent with your furnace maintenance it's possible to get a good 30 years out of your furnace.

When Should My Furnace Be Replaced?Deciding to replace an old furnace is a big decision. Furnaces are not cheap and if you're not an HVAC expert the options can be overwhelming. If you're unsure if your furnace needs to be replaced you should contact an HVAC professional to check the condition of your furnace. 

Here are 5 signs that you should start thinking about replacing your old furnace:

• Your furnace is over 15 years old
• Your furnace is making loud or unusual noises (screeching, banging, groaning, squealing)
• Your furnace requires frequent repairs and repairs are more expensive than they're worth
• Uneven heating in your home
• Your furnace turns on and off a lot

Can You Install a New Heater Yourself?Electric & gas furnace installations should never be done alone and should only be done by qualified and well-experienced furnace technicians. DIY furnace installations are very risky. Improper furnace installation can lead to injuries, disease, and even death. Don't put your family and guests' safety in jeopardy by trying to install a furnace on your own. We offer furnace installations at competitive prices and will get the job done right so you can rest easy.

How Long Does It Take to Remove & Install a Furnace?It can take between 4 - 8 hours to replace and install a new furnace in a residential home. How long it takes to replace an old furnace depends on how complex the installation is. Updates to gas lines, electrical work, and ductwork to match the new furnace need to be taken into account.   

How Much Does It Cost to Have a Furance Installed?On average professional furnace installations can cost between $3,000 - $11,000. This range includes the total cost of labor, permit fees, and your new equipment. How much furnace installation can cost will depend on a number of factors including the type and size of the furnace you are having installed, required ductwork or gas line modifications, removal and disposal of the old furnace, and the cost of other upgrades being made. 

If you need to have a new furnace installed we will work with you to get the best furnace in your budget and will thoroughly explain all the costs associated with your furnace installation. If you don't need a new furnace we'll let you know so you don't spend thousands of dollars unnecessarily.
