What furnace repair involves
A furnace repair visit is a diagnostic first. We read the control board, check gas pressure and temperature rise, and verify the safeties are doing their job instead of being bypassed by a previous repair.
Diagnosis and repair of gas, propane and oil furnaces — ignition, flame sensors, blowers, boards and heat exchangers.
Signs you need service
- Short cycling — on and off every few minutes
- Loud bang or rumble at start-up
- Rooms furthest from the furnace never warm up
- Grinding or squealing from the blower compartment
- Furnace runs constantly but never reaches the set temperature
The repair itself
Most repairs come down to ignitors, flame sensors, pressure switches, inducer motors, blower motors or capacitors, control boards, and gas valves. We show you the failed part and explain what it does before we install a replacement.
If it's time for new equipment
Replacement makes sense when repair costs stack toward a large fraction of a new system, or when the exchanger is compromised. Short of that, repairing a well-built older furnace is usually the better use of your money.
Questions from Pocono Woodland Lakes homeowners
- How long does a furnace repair take?
- Most are an hour or two once the diagnosis is done. Parts that have to be ordered are the main reason a job stretches past one visit.
- Is it worth repairing an older furnace?
- Often yes. Age alone doesn't condemn a furnace — a cracked heat exchanger or repeated major failures do.
