When you experience a breakdown and need to call a heater repair service, it pays to know how your system works. Here are just a few of the most common systems:

Furnace

Forced air distribution systems, or furnaces, are the most common type of heater used in the United States. These systems use electric motors to draw in fresh air before passing it over a heating element or gas burner. The air heats up fast and is blown through your ductwork and out the vents into your home.

If something blocks or constricts the airflow to and from the furnace, you will soon need heater service. If your furnace isn’t vented properly, you may notice condensation building up on your windows. You may also see rust on the grillwork on the front of your furnace. What you won’t see but will still be affected by is mold build-up on the filter and in the air ducts.

Of course, moisture isn’t the only problem that can arise from improper ventilation. Combustion byproducts like carbon monoxide may accumulate in your home and sicken residents. While these issues range from minor to serious, proper installation and maintenance can mitigate most furnace problems. Heating service and heating repairs can be kept to a minimum so long as adequate ventilation is in place.

Boiler

Boilers provide heat via hot water and steam. In many homes, the hot water or steam runs through pipes to radiators or underfloor heating systems. The radiators are usually located in each room, while underfloor heating runs throughout the house. Each provides even heating throughout the home. If your boiler starts making strange sounds or stops heating efficiently, one of our heater repair service professionals should address it. Regular maintenance is the best way to keep your boiler functioning efficiently.

Heat Pump

A heat pump uses an electric motor to transfer heat from one location to another. In the winter, the pump extracts heat energy from the outdoor air, compresses it, and then distributes it throughout your home. In the summer, it reverses this technique to cool your home. Heat pumps are highly energy-efficient in mild climates but not where it freezes in the winter.

Ductless Mini-Split

A ductless mini-split system heats and cools a home through individual units in each room or zone connected to an outdoor compressor. It uses refrigerant to transfer heat between indoor and outdoor units. The mini-split system requires no ductwork, so it is ideal for home additions, finished basements, and creating independent climate control for specific rooms. Periodic heater service for preventative maintenance keeps your mini-split efficiently heating and cooling.

Why Should You Call Us for Heating Maintenance and Repair Services?

It isn’t always obvious when heating service or repairs are necessary. Of course, a lack of warm air is a surefire sign, but other red flags aren’t so obvious. If you’re uncertain whether your heating system is functioning properly, look for higher utility bills. This is often the canary in the coal mine when it comes to heating issues. Strange noises, foul odors, and shorter heating cycles can also indicate issues with your system.

Heater Repair and Maintenance FAQs

How often should a heater be serviced?

It is best to have your heater serviced once a year, in the fall, before cold weather sets in. Annual heater service ensures your system works at peak efficiency, which keeps your utility bills low and helps to prevent the need for costly repairs. Further, regular maintenance prolongs the life of your HVAC equipment, postponing replacement costs.

What happens during heating maintenance?

During heating maintenance, your service professional will provide a complete HVAC equipment tune-up. This includes cleaning, inspecting, and testing the equipment and replacing the filters. All motors, bearings, and moving parts are lubricated, and any worn or stretched belts get replaced. We check the fluid levels and examine the system for leaks. Our heating service maintenance fully examines and tunes up your system to operate at peak efficiency.
