Common Furnace Problems We Fix

Understanding the signs of a struggling furnace can help you address issues promptly, preventing further damage and ensuring your family's safety. Our technicians are adept at diagnosing and resolving all common furnace issues, including:

• Pilot Light or Ignition Problems: If your pilot light frequently goes out or your electronic ignition fails, it can prevent your furnace from heating. This often points to issues with the thermocouple, flame sensor, or gas supply.
• No Heat or Insufficient Heating: This obvious sign can stem from various sources, including a faulty thermostat, clogged filters, a tripped circuit breaker, or issues with the gas valve or igniter. We meticulously troubleshoot to pinpoint the exact cause.
• Strange Noises: Banging, squealing, rattling, or grinding sounds from your furnace are often indicators of mechanical problems. These can range from a loose blower motor belt or a failing motor bearing to issues with the fan or ignition system.
• Unusual Odors: A burning dust smell is common at the start of the heating season, but other odors can signal serious issues. A strong "rotten egg" smell indicates a gas leak, requiring immediate attention. Other chemical or metallic smells can point to specific component failures.
• Frequent Cycling (Short Cycling): If your furnace turns on and off too frequently, it's called short cycling. This reduces efficiency and indicates problems such as an oversized unit, clogged filters, or a malfunctioning thermostat.
• High Energy Bills: A sudden spike in your heating costs often signals an inefficient furnace struggling to keep up with demand due to neglected maintenance or a developing problem.
• Carbon Monoxide Leaks: This is a silent, odorless danger. A cracked heat exchanger or improper ventilation can lead to carbon monoxide leakage. Our service includes vital safety checks to detect and prevent this life-threatening issue. Learn more about maintaining safe indoor air quality on our Air Flow & Indoor Air Quality page.

We handle parts replacement for all essential furnace components, including igniters, blower motors, control boards, and, most critically, heat exchangers. A cracked heat exchanger is a severe safety hazard and often necessitates furnace replacement due to the risk of carbon monoxide exposure. Our team is trained to identify these critical issues and provide the safest, most effective solutions.

Furnace Lifespan in Texas & When to Consider Replacement

The average lifespan of a furnace is typically 15-20 years, but this can vary based on maintenance, usage, and the unique Texas climate. While our winters might not be as harsh as in northern states, a well-maintained furnace can still last for many seasons.

A common guideline for deciding whether to repair or replace your furnace is the "Rule of $5000." If your furnace is more than 10-15 years old and the cost of repairs approaches or exceeds 50% of the cost of a new system, it's often more economical in the long run to consider replacement. We’ll provide an honest assessment of your furnace’s condition, taking into account its age, repair history, and efficiency, to help you make the best decision for your home and budget.
