Common Furnace Problems We Professionally Repair

Furnaces are complex systems, and when they fail, it's often due to a specific component malfunction. Our certified technicians have the experience to identify and fix a wide range of issues. We regularly handle repairs related to:

• No Heat or Insufficient Heat: The most critical symptom. This can stem from a faulty thermostat, a malfunctioning ignitor, a pilot light issue, or a problem with the gas supply. We systematically check each component to find the root cause.
• Strange Noises: Your furnace should operate quietly. Banging or popping can indicate delayed ignition, rattling may signal loose panels or parts, and high-pitched squealing often points to a problem with the blower motor or belt.
• Frequent Cycling (Short Cycling): If your furnace turns on and off every few minutes, it could be caused by a clogged air filter, an improperly sized unit, or a faulty thermostat. This is inefficient and puts excessive wear on your system.
• Pilot Light or Ignition Failure: A pilot light that won't stay lit or an electronic ignition system that fails to spark prevents your furnace from producing heat. This could be due to a dirty flame sensor, a faulty thermocouple, or issues with the gas valve.
• Blower Motor Issues: If the blower doesn't run, heat can't circulate through your home. If it runs constantly, you could have a faulty limit switch or a thermostat issue. Weak airflow is often a sign of a struggling motor or blocked ductwork.
• Thermostat Malfunctions: An inaccurate or unresponsive thermostat can prevent your furnace from turning on, running correctly, or maintaining the right temperature.

4 Simple Checks to Perform Before Calling for Service

Before you schedule a professional repair, a few simple checks can sometimes resolve the issue or provide valuable information for our technicians. For your safety, never attempt to open furnace panels or handle electrical or gas components.

• Check the Thermostat: Ensure it is set to "HEAT" and the temperature is set several degrees higher than the current room temperature. Check if the batteries need replacing.
• Inspect the Air Filter: A severely clogged air filter can restrict airflow and cause your furnace to overheat and shut down. If it’s dirty, replace it.
• Verify Power: Make sure the furnace's power switch (often located on or near the unit) is in the "ON" position. Then, check your home’s circuit breaker panel to see if the breaker for the furnace has tripped.
• Ensure Vents Are Open: Walk through your home and confirm that all heating vents are open and unobstructed by furniture or rugs.

If these steps don’t restore your heat, it’s time to call in a professional for a safe and accurate diagnosis.

Deciding Between Furnace Repair and Replacement

A common question we hear from Larimer County homeowners is whether it’s better to repair an old furnace or invest in a new one. We provide honest guidance to help you make the best long-term decision. Consider a replacement if:

• Your Furnace is Over 15 Years Old: The average furnace lifespan is 15-20 years. An older unit is more prone to breakdowns and is significantly less energy-efficient.
• Repair Costs are High: A good rule of thumb is if a repair costs 50% or more of the price of a new furnace, replacement is often the more financially sound choice.
• You Experience Frequent Breakdowns: If you are calling for repairs every year, the cumulative cost and inconvenience can quickly outweigh the investment in a new, reliable system.
• Your Energy Bills Are Rising: An aging, inefficient furnace has to work harder to heat your home, leading to a noticeable increase in your monthly utility costs.

Our technicians can assess the overall health of your current system and provide you with the information you need to make an informed choice that fits your budget and your home’s needs.
