Do I Need Repair Service

While it may not be totally clear that something in your system isn’t running correctly, regular maintenance can help you stay on top of your heating system. There are a few small symptoms to look out for that may signal it’s time for repair.

  • Strange sounds from your heating system. Home and business owners in the West Bloomfield area should note that it’s normal for your heating system to maintain a low humming noise. There might also be a click or two from the thermostat. Any unusual noises, however, should be a cause for concern.
  • Frequent thermostat adjustment. If your thermostat has been set at a regular, comfortable temperature, but you’re finding yourself turning it up more frequently, that might mean it’s not maintaining heat the way it should be. There may be an issue with the thermostat or the heating unit as a whole.
  • Rapid start up and shutdowns of the heating system. Typically, a heating cycle is about 10 to 15 minutes long. Sometimes this can be a little longer on an exceptionally cold day. But if the cycles are running much shorter, that could lead to a serious strain on the system, and more wear and tear.
  • Higher than normal heating bills. Even with rising costs, you likely have an idea of where your heating bill typically runs. If you notice a large spike in costs, it may mean your system isn’t running efficiently and could require repair.

Scheduling regular maintenance when you notice any of the above concerns will keep your system running longer and better. We want you to get the longest life and best quality out of your heating system as possible. That’s why our experts are ready to handle these small issues before they turn into larger ones.

Why do furnaces rely on ignition systems?
Combustion systems in furnaces include ignition devices that enable safe initiation of the heating cycle. These devices initiate the combustion of fuel to produce the heat generated by the furnace. Proper operation of the ignition device ensures the combustion system operates properly to produce hot air when it’s needed.
While evaluating the uneven heat distribution, we often find that airflow is likely imbalanced within the house. Conditions such as obstructed vents, duct limitations, or improper thermostat placement may affect how effectively heat is distributed throughout the home. Correcting these conditions will provide a better overall comfort level for the residents than would otherwise be possible.
The blower moves warm air through the ducts to warm the living areas. During service, we measure its performance to ensure proper airflow and consistent heat. A well-functioning blower provides an even distribution of hot or cold temperatures throughout the home.
Dust and debris buildup in filters can block air from flowing through the system, making it hard for the furnace to move warm air and putting more stress on the furnace’s components. Regular cleaning of filters will allow the system to operate normally.
Gas heating systems that use combustion fuel produce gases that must be properly vented outside of the home. The ventilation system is designed to transport these gases from the appliance to the outside of the building. Proper venting affects the overall performance of the heating system and creates a safe indoor environment.
We evaluate a heating system’s performance by monitoring temperature variance and air movement around the house. As part of this evaluation process, we also assess the heating system’s efficiency in producing and distributing heat evenly under typical use. If we discover uneven heating /cooling, our technicians will address the problem immediately.
