8 Ways to Tell if It’s Time For Furnace Repair
1. Some areas of your home won’t get warm.
Your furnace should warm your entire home. If it’s not and some rooms in your home are too cold, call one of our HVAC technicians for furnace maintenance or repair.
2. Your home’s energy bills increase suddenly.
If you aren’t using your furnace more, but your home heating bills are increasing more than they should, it could be that your furnace is losing efficiency and needs repair.
3. Unusual sounds come from the furnace.
All heating and cooling systems make some noise, but if your furnace starts to make odd noises—especially banging—it’s a sign you should get it examined by an expert.
4. Your heating system keeps turning off and on.
Known as short cycling, a furnace that is constantly starting and stopping instead of turning on and completing its cycle most likely demands repair from a skilled HVAC technician like the team members at Air Current AC & Heat.
5. The heating system won’t start.
If your furnace will not start, that’s without a doubt a sign you should call for HVAC repair. If it turns out you need furnace replacement, our HVAC technicians in Houston can help you choose a new energy-efficient furnace that’s a good match for your home.
6. Water pooling around your HVAC system.
Any type of water pooling around your furnace is a sign there’s something off that needs prompt HVAC repair. We’ll provide a diagnosis and present your repair options, so you can decide which works best for your home and budget.
7. Your heating system smells weird.
Furnaces shouldn’t stink. If there’s a persistent foul smell coming from your furnace, it’s a sign you need repair. If you think you smell gas or a sulfur smell, it could be a gas leak and calls for immediate action: evacuate your home right away and contact us for help once you are safe.
8. Insufficient airflow out of your home’s vents.
From problems with your ventilation system to issues with your furnace’s blower motor or a clogged furnace filter, insufficient or weak airflow from vents could be caused by a number of problems that may need HVAC repair, system maintenance or furnace installation.
