When your furnace, heater, or related heating system components break down or malfunction in the middle of winter, getting professional repairs completed quickly is imperative. At CCHVAC, we know Pittsburg-area homeowners frequently have questions when faced with an unexpected heating issue requiring our licensed technician’s skills. To help you make informed decisions this heating season, we’ve compiled answers to some of our most frequently asked questions about heating repair services.
What are some common heating problems your technicians repair?
Some of the most common issues we resolve include: furnaces not igniting or turning on, lack of heat or insufficient warmth, strange noises or smells from the furnace, tripped breakers or blown fuses, faulty thermostats, frequent cycling on/off, leaks in ductwork, and general lack of efficiency. Our techs are experts in every heating system component.
How quickly can you respond to a no-heat emergency?
We understand being left without heat is stressful. That’s why we offer 24/7 emergency repair services and always aim to have an HVAC technician at your Pittsburg home within a few hours, even on weekends and holidays. We also provide estimates for repairs upfront so you aren’t surprised by the cost.
What makes your technicians qualified to work on my heating unit?
Our team includes certificated technicians who undergo rigorous, up-to-date training specific to major heating system brands and models. With decades of combined hands-on repair experience, we have the knowledge to accurately diagnose any heating issue quickly and recommend the best solution. We are licensed, insured, certificated and experienced expert technicians.
Will you provide a warranty on heating repairs?
Yes, we stand behind our workmanship on all heating unit repairs. We provide written warranties of varying lengths on parts and labor based on the extent of the work performed. Ask your technician for details about included repair warranties.
How can I avoid an unexpected heating breakdown?
Preventative maintenance is key. We recommend all homeowners have a qualified HVAC technician complete a thorough tune-up and inspection of their heating system each year prior to the winter. Catching minor issues early helps avoid major repairs down the road.
Should I repair or replace my old furnace?
In some cases, the most cost-effective solution is to replace an outdated furnace that requires frequent repairs and lacks efficiency. We honestly assess repair vs. replacement options and help you make the right choice for your home and budget.
What payment options do you offer for heating repairs?
We accept cash and all major credit cards.
How will I know when it’s time to replace my heating unit altogether?
Signs that replacement should be considered include: a furnace over 15 years old, recurring failures and major repairs needed, spikes in energy bills, lack of sufficient heating, and outdated technology lacking modern efficiency standards. Our technicians will advise you if full replacement is the best course of action.
What should I do in the meantime if I have no heat?
First, make sure your thermostat is properly programmed and that batteries are new. Check circuit breakers and furnace switches as well. Otherwise, contact us immediately for emergency heating repair services. Space heaters can provide temporary warmth, but exercise caution when using them.
Will your technicians respect my home and clean up thoroughly?
Absolutely. Our HVAC technicians are uniformed professionals who follow a strict code of conduct. They wear booties inside, use drop cloths, avoid loud music, and never smoke or swear. Each technician will clean up completely after completing the heating repairs.
