Is Your Furnace Acting Up? Common Problems We Fix
It's important to recognize the signs that your furnace may need professional attention. Ignoring early warnings can lead to more significant issues and costly repairs down the line.
- No Heat or Insufficient Heat: This is the most obvious sign of a problem. It could be related to the thermostat, pilot light (for gas furnaces), ignition system, or a mechanical issue.
- Strange Noises: Banging, rattling, squealing, or grinding sounds often indicate loose or broken parts, motor problems, or issues with the blower.
- Unpleasant Odors: A persistent burning smell could signal an electrical issue or a dirty filter. A sulfur or rotten egg smell may indicate a gas leak and requires immediate professional assistance.
- Short Cycling: If your furnace turns on and off frequently, it could be a sign of a clogged filter, overheating, or an improperly sized unit.
- High Energy Bills: A sudden spike in heating costs without changes in usage might mean your furnace is losing efficiency due to age, lack of maintenance, or a developing problem.
- Pilot Light Issues: If the pilot light on a gas furnace is out or flickering, it could indicate a draft, a thermocouple problem, or a gas supply issue.
If you notice any of these signs, it's best to call a qualified technician for diagnosis and Furnace Repair.
Repair or Replace Your Furnace? Making the Right Choice
Deciding whether to repair your existing furnace or invest in a new one can be challenging. Several factors should influence your decision:
- Age of the System: Most furnaces have a lifespan of 15-20 years. If your unit is approaching or has exceeded this age, replacement may be a more cost-effective long-term solution than repeated repairs.
- Frequency and Cost of Repairs: If your furnace requires frequent, costly repairs, the cumulative expense can quickly approach the cost of a new unit. A common guideline is the "$5,000 rule" (or similar variations depending on location and system type): if the cost of a repair multiplied by the age of the unit is greater than $5,000 (or a similar threshold), replacement is likely the better option. For example, a 10-year-old furnace needing a $600 repair ($600 x 10 = $6,000) might signal it's time to replace.
- Energy Efficiency: Older furnaces are significantly less energy-efficient than modern models. Replacing an old unit can lead to substantial savings on your monthly energy bills.
- Safety Concerns: Cracks in the heat exchanger can lead to carbon monoxide leaks, a serious safety hazard. If your technician identifies safety issues, replacement is usually the safest course of action.
- Comfort Needs: If your current system struggles to heat your home evenly or maintain a consistent temperature, a new, properly sized unit will provide better comfort.
We can help you assess your current system's condition and provide an honest recommendation based on these factors, explaining your options clearly.
Navigating California's Gas Furnace Ban
California is moving towards phasing out the sale of new natural gas furnaces and water heaters by 2030 as part of broader efforts to reduce emissions and promote cleaner energy. This regulation impacts homeowners in El Segundo and across the state.

Heat Pumps are emerging as a leading alternative.
