How Can You Determine If Your Heating System Requires Repairs?

Certain indications that your furnace may necessitate repair include:

> UNUSUAL SOUNDS: If your furnace is producing strange noises such as banging, rattling, or squealing, it may indicate underlying mechanical issues that require attention.

> DECREASED HEATING EFFICIENCY: Noticeable changes in your home’s temperature despite your furnace running can signify a decline in heating efficiency, often caused by issues like clogged filters or malfunctioning components.

> FAILURE OF FURCNACE TO TURN ON: If your furnace is unresponsive or fails to ignite when prompted, it could be due to electrical problems, thermostat issues, or pilot light malfunctions, requiring immediate inspection and repair.

> YELLOW PILOT LIGHT INSTEAD OF BLUE: A pilot light that appears yellow instead of blue may indicate a combustion problem, potentially stemming from issues with gas supply, ventilation, or burner cleanliness, warranting professional assessment.

> SMELLY ODORS: Strange smells such as burning, mustiness, or sulfur could signal various issues like overheating, gas leaks, or mold growth within the furnace, necessitating prompt investigation and resolution.
