Furnace Not Working? Check These Six Things Before You Call

At the start of every winter more than a few of our emergency furnace repair calls turn out to be a simple issue that could have been resolved by the owner. Save stress, time, and money by checking these things before you call:

  • Make sure your thermostat is "ON", is set to "HEAT", and the desired room temperature is set higher than the current ambient temperature.
  • Make sure your "FURNACE SWITCH" is set to "ON". This switch is typically a traditional toggle switch that may have a RED cover-plate.
  • Check you circuit breaker panel to ensure that your heating system breaker is "ON".
  • Check your natural gas or LP supply to make sure there is fuel available to your furnace.
  • Ensure that both your supply and return air registers are free of obstructions.
  • Change your furnace filter and re-start your furnace.

If you went through the checklist above, and you're still having the same issue with your furnace it's likely that you have a larger repair that you'll need professional service with. If that's the case you can call us day or night, seven days a week. H.E.R.O. Heating knows how important keeping your family warm and comfortable is, especially during harsh winter weather. We're here for you 24/7 for emergency repairs.

Routine Maintenance For Your Furnace

We also offer several maintenance tiered plans for our customers. Performing routine, often annual maintenance is important for your furnaces and other systems and will extend the life and efficiency of the unit. If you choose to sign up for our furnace maintenance agreement once a year one of our heating technicians will come out to your residence and perform a annual check and tune-up of the system. Common furnace tune-up steps include:

  • Inspection: When we arrive, we will carefully examine your furnace and note its condition.
  • Cleaning: Standard 1" furnace filter? We will replace it. Non-standard size filters available upon request for additional charge. s
  • Lubrication: We'll lubricate any moving parts that require lubrication like motors, bearings, or fans to reduce friction and prevent noise.
  • Check Ignition System: We'll inspect the pilot light assembly or ignition system and clean as necessary.
  • Gas Pressure and Burner: After verifying that the correct pressure is being released, inspect burners and clean if required.
  • Blower: We'll inspect and clean the air blower as needed. We'll measure the amperage and voltage for the fan motor to ensure it is in great condition.
  • Heat Exchanger: Inspect furnace heat exchanger for cracks, soot, and corrosion.
  • Venting System: Inspect the flues and ventilation system to ensure proper operation. If you have a condensing furnace, we'll check the condensation drains and any condensation pumps.
  • Ductwork: Check ductwork for loose joints or hangers, and seal with mastic duct sealant as needed.
  • Thermostats and Controls: We'll check your thermostats for proper operation. If they utilize batteries for power, we'll change the batteries.
  • Complete After Maintenance System Test: We'll test run your furnace for several minutes. We will make sure to check for sufficient temperature increase, blower operation, and burner operation.
  • Clean-up: We'll pick-up our tools, remove any old filters, and thoroughly clean our workspace.
  • Prepare Visit Report: We will discuss our work and document any potential problems or recommended repairs.
