When Should You Call a Furnace Repair Expert?

Your furnace is at the heart of your home heating system. When the system isn’t operating efficiently, it puts extra strain on the furnace, which adds up to extra wear and tear over time. And while you can’t always predict when a furnace will break down, furnaces with extra wear and tear tend to break down more often.

If you notice any of these warning signs, you should call a furnace repair expert:

• Performance issues: Your furnace isn’t up to the task of heating your house adequately, it takes too long, or there are cold spots throughout the home.
• Difficulty starting or cycling on and off frequently: This could be a sign of many possible problems, from a broken thermostat to a lack of airflow.
• Unusual noises: While some noise is normal, loud or persistent unusual sounds warrant attention. Banging, rattling, squealing, or grinding? These often indicate mechanical problems.
• Increasing energy bills: A sudden, unexplained spike in your heating costs typically means your furnace’s efficiency is suffering, and it may be in need of repairs.
• Poor indoor air quality: If the air in your home is stale or stuffy, your furnace may be the culprit, and it’s worth having a professional take a look. You may also notice yourself or family members coughing, congested, or having respiratory issues.

When Should You Get Furnace Maintenance?

How long has it been since the last time you had professional furnace maintenance? If it’s been a few years, now is probably the best time to schedule your next one.

Ideally, you would get your furnace maintained every year, but for many people, that’s not possible. As long as you have it done every few years, your furnace should be in good shape.
