Uneven Heating
Do some rooms in your home feel nice and warm, while others are cool and uncomfortable? This is not an uncommon issue, and we can help make sure your entire house is well heated. In most cases, the culprit for uneven heating is a clogged duct system, or ducts which are no longer airtight. Since ducts carry heat through your home, an issue can keep heat from reaching certain rooms. We can perform a duct cleaning and shore up any issues to get the system working as intended again.
Strange Smells
If you have a furnace, you never want to experience a burning smell coming from your unit. If you do smell burning, turn off your system and give us a call immediately. Since a furnace is powered by gas any flame could be dangerous, but we can ensure the issue is corrected and keep your home safe. Another issue could be the smell of gas, which should also warrant an immediate call to an expert. We have the experience needed to safely eliminate a gas leak and restore safe heating to your home.
Water Leaks
If you experience water leaking from your furnace or heat pump, it’s likely due to an issue with the condensation line or pressure relief valve. Both of these mechanisms are in place to help the system function properly, but the presence of water means there is an issue. While a water leak can be a serious issue, our technicians can quickly diagnose and correct the issue.
System Won’t Heat or Start
If your system is blowing cool air or won’t come on at all, there could be any number of issues to blame. Modern units have great features involving electrical components which help them run efficiently, but they can experience issues from time to time. Whatever the problem, our team can determine the cause and get heat restored to your home.
