Heating & Furnace Repair
Experiencing a sudden breakdown or noticing unusual signs from your heating system? Timely repairs are crucial to restore comfort and prevent further damage. Our technicians are skilled at diagnosing and repairing a wide array of heating and furnace problems. Common signs that your system may need repair include:
- The system isn't producing heat.
- The system is making strange noises (banging, rattling, whistling).
- Uneven heating throughout your home.
- The pilot light is out (for gas furnaces).
- The thermostat isn't working correctly.

- The system cycles on and off frequently (short cycling).
We arrive promptly, diagnose the issue accurately, and explain the necessary repairs clearly before beginning work. Our goal is to get your heat back on safely and efficiently.
Heating & Furnace Installation & Replacement
Sometimes, repair isn't the most cost-effective or long-term solution, especially for older or significantly damaged systems. If your furnace is nearing the end of its lifespan or requires frequent, costly repairs, a new heating system installation might be the best option.
Signs it might be time to consider replacing your heating system include:
- The system is more than 15-20 years old.
- Repair costs are approaching or exceeding half the cost of a new system.
- The system is inefficient, leading to high energy bills.
- Frequent breakdowns requiring multiple service calls.
- The system is noisy or struggling to keep your home warm.
We provide expert guidance on selecting a new heating system that is appropriately sized for your home, energy-efficient, and within your budget. Our installation process is meticulous, ensuring your new furnace or heating system is installed correctly for optimal performance and longevity. We handle the removal of your old unit and ensure the new system is properly calibrated and tested.
Heating & Furnace Maintenance & Tune-Ups
Regular maintenance is vital for the health, efficiency, and lifespan of your heating system. Scheduling annual tune-ups can help prevent unexpected breakdowns, improve energy efficiency, and ensure your system operates safely.
A comprehensive heating system tune-up typically includes:
- Inspecting and cleaning the burners.
- Checking the heat exchanger for cracks or corrosion.
- Testing the ignitor or pilot light.
- Measuring airflow and adjusting fan speeds.
- Lubricating moving parts.
- Checking and tightening electrical connections.
- Testing safety controls.
- Checking thermostat calibration.
- Inspecting ductwork for leaks or blockages.
- Replacing or cleaning air filters.
- Checking gas pressure and manifold pressure (for gas furnaces).
- Performing a carbon monoxide safety check.
This preventative service helps identify potential problems before they become major issues, ensures efficient operation to keep energy costs down, and helps extend the life of your equipment. Consider joining our maintenance program, the Power Club, for scheduled tune-ups and additional benefits.
Common Heating & Furnace Problems We Solve in Huntington Beach
While many heating issues are universal, understanding the common problems helps identify when to call a professional. In Huntington Beach, typical issues include:
- System Not Turning On: This could be due to thermostat issues, electrical problems, a tripped breaker, or a problem with the pilot light or ignitor.
- Insufficient Heat: The system might be running but not producing enough heat, potentially due to a clogged filter, issues with the burners, or a problem with the heat exchanger.
- Strange Noises: Banging, rattling, or squealing sounds can indicate mechanical problems like a loose belt, a failing motor, or issues within the combustion chamber.
- Frequent Cycling: If your system turns on and off repeatedly in short bursts, it could be a sign of an improperly sized system, a clogged filter, or a malfunctioning thermostat.
- High Energy Bills: An aging, inefficient system or one with underlying issues will consume more energy to produce the same amount of heat.
Our technicians are adept at diagnosing these and other issues, providing the necessary repairs to restore your home's comfort.
Simple Troubleshooting Before Calling for Service
Before scheduling a repair, there are a few basic checks you can perform:
- Check the Thermostat: Ensure it's set to "Heat" and the temperature setting is above the current room temperature. Check if the batteries need replacing.
- Check the Air Filter: A clogged filter restricts airflow, causing the system to overheat or run inefficiently. Check if it's dirty and replace it if needed.
- Check Power Switches: Ensure the power switch near the furnace and the circuit breaker in your electrical panel haven't been accidentally turned off.
- Check for Obstructions: Make sure vents and return air grilles aren't blocked by furniture or other items.
If these simple steps don't resolve the issue, it's time to call in a professional. Tampering with heating systems without proper training can be dangerous.
Repair or Replace? Making the Right Decision
Deciding whether to repair or replace your furnace or heating system can be challenging. Consider the age of your system; if it's over 15-20 years old, replacement is often more economical in the long run due to improved efficiency and reduced repair costs. The cost of the repair is another major factor; if the repair cost is a significant percentage of the cost of a new unit, investing in a new, more efficient system often makes sense. We can help you evaluate your options and provide an honest recommendation based on the condition of your current system and your home comfort needs.
