Frequently Asked Questions

Most common repairs can be completed in 1 to 3 hours. If we need to order special parts, we’ll explain the timeline and, when possible, provide temporary solutions to keep you warm while we wait for parts to arrive.

Yes. Our technicians are trained to work on all major furnace brands, including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Rheem, Goodman, Bryant, American Standard, York, and others. We stock parts for the most common models and can source specialized parts quickly for less common systems.

A tune up is preventive maintenance performed on a working system to keep it running efficiently and catch potential problems early. A repair service call addresses a specific problem your furnace isn’t working, is making noises, or isn’t heating properly. While tune ups are scheduled in advance, repair calls address immediate issues.

We strongly recommend against DIY furnace repairs beyond basic troubleshooting like checking the thermostat, ensuring the power is on, and replacing the filter. Furnaces involve gas lines, electrical systems, and complex safety controls. Improper repairs can create carbon monoxide hazards, fire risks, or cause additional damage that’s more expensive to fix. Most furnace warranties also require professional service to remain valid.

Annual service is ideal, preferably in the fall before heating season begins. This allows us to identify and fix potential problems before cold weather arrives. If your furnace is older (15+ years) or you use it heavily, twice yearly service may be beneficial.

Contact us if you notice: unusual noises (banging, grinding, squealing), the furnace cycling on and off frequently, uneven heating in different rooms, yellow or flickering pilot light flames (should be blue), increasing energy bills, the furnace running constantly without achieving temperature, or any smell of gas near your furnace.
