Furnace Repair

During the cold winter months, your furnace works tirelessly, cycling on and off three to eight times per hour on average. Each component operates in cycles for hours every day to maintain a comfortable temperature. Despite their durability, heating units sometimes break down due to constant use. For reliable furnace repair, trust the experts at New Comfort Heating and Cooling. If you encounter any issues, call us at 708 717 9995 – the quickest and most efficient way to reach our team.

Before contacting an HVAC contractor for furnace repair, try the following steps:

• Replace the filter

• Check the thermostat battery

• Inspect the main power breaker

• Turn off the furnace for 60 seconds and then back on

• Wait up to 10 minutes (some thermostats have a delay before calling for heat)

If your furnace is still not functioning, call for emergency furnace heating repair.

Here are some common issues indicating a furnace breakdown:

1.

No heat and blowing cold air

Furnaces have safety sensors to protect you. Cold air from the vent might be due to an overheated limit switch, causing the system to lock for a few hours. The fan will run, but the burner won’t ignite. Contact a technician for furnace repair and inspection.

2.

System shut down unexpectedly

A diagnostic service is needed to determine the cause. Often, the flame rollout switch shuts off the system. In such cases, a qualified technician should clean and inspect your furnace for effective furnace heating repair.

3.

Gas furnace won’t kick on

This issue is often linked to power supply problems. Reset the main circuit breaker for a minute to reset system codes. Replace filters and ensure supply and return air vents are clear. If these steps don’t work, call a professional for a full furnace inspection.

4.

Furnace making noises

Strange noises can indicate issues with ductwork or internal components. Experienced technicians can identify the source and fix it. Unusual sounds may also signal a more serious problem, such as a malfunctioning part. Schedule a service immediately to prevent further damage.

5.

Clogged vents

High-efficiency furnaces with white PVC pipes may get blocked by snow, ice, or debris, causing dangerous carbon monoxide buildup. A blocked vent also reduces furnace efficiency. Ensure the vent pipe remains unobstructed to avoid costly furnace repair.

6.

Age of unit

Furnaces typically last 10-20 years. For units under 10 years old, repairs are usually worthwhile unless costs are prohibitively high. Compare furnace repair and replacement costs for older units, as issues may become more frequent over time. If you’re searching for furnace replacement, we can help.

7.

Busted heat exchanger

The heat exchanger is crucial for both heat and fume management. A damaged exchanger can leak fumes into your home. In most cases, replacing the entire furnace is more cost-effective, especially for units over 10 years old. Our team provides expert advice on whether to repair or replace your furnace.
