Benefits of Heater Repair and Service
Regular heater repair and service are essential for ensuring your home stays comfortable in the winter months. A well-maintained system will keep your energy bills lower and reduce the chances of any major issues that could be a source of inconvenience or expense. Stonewall Heating and Air offers comprehensive heater repair and service for any make or model of heating unit, as well as fast response times to ensure minimal disruption to your daily routine.
Our experienced technicians can clean, diagnose, repair and perform maintenance on heating systems, including but not limited to: furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, ductless mini-splits, water heaters and more. Our staff is knowledgeable in all aspects of heating units and understand how each type works. We offer preventative maintenance services that are tailored to meet the specific requirements of your particular type equipment – whether it’s a gas furnace, an oil boiler or an electric heat pump – so you can begin each season with peace of mind knowing that you’re investing in efficient performance for years to come.
From clogs or breaks in pipes and stale air ducts catching dust particles to weakened seals allowing air leaks from outside temperatures creeping into your home’s interior environment – these are just a few reasons why regular inspection ensures optimal performance from a variety of sophisticated parts within your heater system. Our staff never underestimates the importance of safety inspections when it comes to what can be dangerous electrical wiring connections or flue vents which must remain open at all times. Your Stonewall Heating and Air technician will inspect all areas closely to avoid future complications due to regular wear-and-tear on any part which could lead at some point down the line, if neglected – failure or other bigger problems which may cost much more than if attended earlier!
Common Heater Problems and Solutions
Heaters, like any other appliance, will have common issues over time. Whether you have a gas or electric heater, there are typical problems that can occur. However, with regular maintenance and care, you can help prevent these from occurring frequently. Here’s a quick guide to common heater problems and their potential solutions.
No Heat: If your heater does not produce any heat at all, the first step is to check the thermostat and make sure it is turned on and set properly. Another potential cause is a broken electrical switch or tripped circuit breaker in the furnace or airhandler. Finally, check for blocked ducts near the blower motor or components in need of lubrication within the system.
Inadequate Heat: If your system is producing inadequate heat but not no heat at all, this could be a sign of worn parts within the system such as a failing blower motor or clogged filter that should be replaced immediately by a qualified technician. It can also indicate low refrigerant levels if you have an HVAC unit –in that case, you should contact us right away to arrange for an inspection and repair service before running up larger problems down the line such as compressor damage.
Strange Noises: Odd noises coming from your heater are not a good sign and generally imply there is something wrong within your system’s components- whether it’s due to misalignment in existing parts or debris being caught up with operation-related elements like fan blades. We recommend calling for inspection service if strange noises are heard as this may indicate additional damage beyond what you can see that needs addressing by an experienced professional before further troublesome issues arise later down the line with continual use of these faulty parts and components in current condition
Tips for Maintaining Your Heater
Proper maintenance of your heating system is an important part of ensuring that it runs efficiently and safely throughout the colder months. By following these tips, you can help ensure the longevity and quality of your home’s heating system:
1. Change filters regularly: Dirty air filters can lead to significant problems, like reduced energy efficiency and even mechanical damage. Depending on your system, you should aim to change the filter every one to three months.
2. Clean heat exchangers/burners annually: All combustion systems have a heat exchanger or burner that needs detailed cleaning at least once in a year’s time. Without proper maintenance, residues can build up and reduce performance as well as create potential safety hazards such as carbon monoxide leakage or fire hazards.
3. Check for combustion if present: Combustion vents must be free from debris or obstructions in order to allow for adequate ventilation – check on these at least once a year too, keeping them free from animal nests, leaves, etc.
4. Keep condenser coils clean: Air conditioners accumulate dirt on their condenser coil which will reduce its efficiency over time – try cleaning it off with a hose every 1-2 years — though this is more dependent on environment and other factors than the rest of the tips here! Additionally, don’t forget to trim any overhanging vegetation that may be blocking your AC units airflow (inside & out).
5. Maintain ducting: Dust buildup in ducting with substantially impact your home’s indoor air quality as well as efficiency – keep ducts clean by regular vacuuming/sweeping or professional washing service if needed (every 3-4 years). You’ll also want to inspect for any gaps or broken seals which could be letting conditioned air escape outside of its intended path! Additionally check insulation levels annually – if they’re too low it could lead not only inefficiency but also potential moisture issues due to condensation buildup inside walls/floors near chilled surfaces that aren’t insulated properly outside hermetically sealed duct runs!
Troubleshooting Your Heater
When your furnace isn’t working properly, there are several things you can do to quickly troubleshoot and identify the problem. The first step is to carefully check the system’s settings. Make sure that it is set to the correct heating system mode (heat or cool) and ensure that the temperature setting matches what you desire.
Next, inspect the filter of your heating unit as a clogged or dirty filter can be a common cause of furnace problems. If dirty, change or clean the filter as needed then reset your system by turning off power at the breaker box for 45 seconds and then turn back on. This may cause your air conditioner to kick on for a few seconds until it determines what season it is currently in.
Another common issue is faulty wiring, which can cause anything from tripping breakers to short cycling due to bad connections and wires causing electrical shorts near sensitive components like sensors and circuit boards. If this is suspected, have an experienced contractor come out to identify and repair any faulty wiring safely.
The thermostat could also be out of calibration or malfunctioning due to broken parts such as contacts, motors or other components – make sure there’s no dust buildup behind it which can affect its accuracy (clean with an air compressor if necessary). You may want to test other areas of functionality in the thermostat such as fan control and temperature readings compared against another thermometer placed nearby before committing resources towards repairs/replacement if all other ideas fail.
In addition, your home duct system could be filled with debris or insulation fibers which will impede airflow; this type of job would need a special vacuum cleaner with negative air pressure capability called a “Ductmaster” – less costly than having an HVAC company come out every time there’s an airflow issue. Finally, loose/worn belts in your motor may need replacement along with checking all belts for wear & tear periodically from then onwards so you don’t have future problems down road- turning off power before inspection always suggested!
Benefits of Professional Heater Repair and Service

Regular maintenance and repair can help ensure efficient system performance and identify and address potentially costly repairs before they become an issue. Professional heater repair and service can provide these and other benefits:
-Improved system performance: Regular check-ups of your furnace, heat pump, or boiler will improve the efficiency of the unit by cleaning key components, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting tubing and wiring, as well as lubricating fan blades.
-Prolonged system lifespan: Professional maintenance will not only improve energy efficiency but also extend the lifespan of your heater by keeping major components running efficiently.
-Safety: Equipment malfunctions such as short circuits or gas leaks can be dangerous for both homeowners and their property. Regular service will reduce the risk of a safety hazard occurring in your home.

Frequently Asked Questions
Heating and air conditioning systems are complicated pieces of equipment that require diagnoses from a trained professional. To ensure that our customers receive the best possible service, we’ve compiled a list of frequently asked questions regarding our heater repair and service services.
Can I Repair My Own Heater?
Depending on your experience level and the type of heater you have, attempting to repair your own heating system may be possible. However, it is highly recommended that you consult with a professional HVAC technician to determine if self-repairing is the best option for your particular situation. Self-repair of any electrical or HVAC equipment can be dangerous and is often not covered under warranty.
What Is Involved In Heater Repair?
The scope of heater repair will depend on the issue or malfunction present in the system, as well as the make and model of heater you own. Generally speaking, repairs may include checking voltage levels and resistance to diagnose electrical issues, inspecting venting for obstructions or leaks, cleaning evaporator coils for improved airflow efficiency, replacing belts which may have worn out due to use over time, lubricating motors and bearings to reduce noise emissions during operation, inspecting ductwork for poor connections or cracks where heated air is leaking out, adding refrigerant if necessary due to low levels in the lines caused by leak undetectable with available equipment such as thermal imaging cameras.
What Should I Expect To Pay For Heater Repair And Service?
Repair costs will vary depending on type of repair needed as well as brand and model number of heater being serviced. If it involves parts replacement only such as an air filter or blower belt , cost could range between $200-$400 (or fees based on labor time). If more advanced work such diagnostic testing or component replacement is needed then cost could easily exceed 1K depending on complexity . Our technicians will provide customers with honest pricing guidelines before any work starts so there are no surprises at end .
