When to Call a Professional Heating Technician

When your heater malfunctions, it can leave your home chilly and uncomfortable. There are a variety of factors that may cause your heating system to stop working. While some of these may be simple fixes, such as a clogged filter or a tripped circuit breaker, other issues may require the entire unit to be replaced. In general, it is a good idea to do a cost-benefit analysis when deciding whether to repair or replace your system.

Furthermore, if there are problems that could threaten the safety of your home, such as a broken heat exchanger (that could send carbon monoxide into your home), you should replace the system. Simple repairs are best for minor issues in a fairly new system that is still in good condition. If your system is older, has a major problem, or has been displaying signs of wear and tear, a replacement can provide many benefits.

We can handle any and all furnace issues, including:

  • Dirty or clogged air filters
  • Pilot control issues
  • Faulty thermostats
  • Cycling between on and off modes
  • Blower switch problems
  • Rumbling or squeaking noises

Determining if Repair or Replacement is the Best Option

There are certain parts that are worth repairing and certain reasons that will help you determine whether it’s most cost efficient to repair or replace.

You should repair your system for:
  • Minor Faulty Electrical Issues: issues related to fuses and ignition modules.
  • Condensate removal pump: only about 5% of the cost of the entire system.
  • Pressure and temperature sensors: about 10% of the cost of the entire system.
You should replace your heater if the following are broken:
  • Compressor: If it’s not under warranty, it will be a very costly repair. You will be looking at 50 to 75 percent of the cost of the entire replacement. If you’re going to replace this critical component of the system, it does not guarantee that the other components will not fail within a short period of time.
  • Cracked heat exchanger: similar to the compressor, this is a very costly repair as well. It will not guarantee your system from operating sufficiently since the other parts in the system will most likely fail and need to be replaced as well.

The golden rule when doing a replacement is to opt for a newer, more energy-efficient unit. We can help you choose the most energy-efficient and reliable furnace without breaking the bank. Additionally, our team offers regular maintenance to catch potential issues early and lengthen the life of your heating equipment.
