Heating System Repairs in Boise, ID
The Idaho climate is unforgiving when the heating systems we all rely on go out of service. If you need help with HVAC system troubleshooting or emergency heater repair, Peppy Heating & Cooling is here for you.
Heating systems are an essential part of ordinary daily life during cold weather seasons in Idaho. It is never a good idea to delay maintenance or repair of a system, especially one that has begun showing signs of malfunction. In the event of a complete system breakdown, Peppy Heating & Cooling is ready to respond around the clock.
Heating systems can exhibit mechanical problems, electrical failures, and technology issues that either adversely affect or shut down their operations. A competent expert repair company will assess the whole system and determine what repairs, cleaning, or service is necessary.
Heating System Diagnostics
Although it is obvious that a heating system needs professional attention when it stops working altogether, the danger to people and property goes beyond an uncomfortable indoor climate. A malfunctioning HVAC system can present fire hazards if it overheats, and some furnaces can emit deadly carbon monoxide when not working correctly.
There are some other significant symptoms to look for that indicate a heating system needs repair.
Unusual Smells
It is normal for a heater to emit a slight odor of burning dust when it is turned on for the first time cool weather sets it. However, burning smells should not linger, and if there are unusual burning or chemical smells coming from vents or the unit itself, residents should turn the system off entirely and call in a technician immediately.
Spiking Utility Bills
A malfunctioning heating system will usually work much harder to provide warm air. That extra effort and stress draw more energy, and that extra consumption will show up in increased utility bills. Excess energy usage is often the first indication that heater repair services are needed.
Uneven Heating / Thermostat Issues
When some areas of a building are too hot and others too cool, even when they are open to each other, there is a good chance something is wrong with the HVAC unit or the system’s ductwork. Also, professional assistance is usually necessary when an electronic thermostat mismatches the air temperature or malfunctions.
Odd Noises
HVAC units that begin to rattle, squeal, grind, or moan are likely experiencing mechanical problems. If some parts fail or are damaged, they can easily cause more trouble for other components. All parts of an HVAC system are interrelated and work together, so if one part is making unusual sounds, it is time to have the system inspected by a professional.
Air Quality Problems / Carbon Monoxide Alarms
Excess humidity and dirty air are often strong signs of HVAC trouble. Every homeowner should have a carbon monoxide detector in service. If that alarm goes off, it is time to evacuate the building immediately and call the gas company. Then, contact HVAC professionals to determine why the unit emitted carbon monoxide.
Preventive Maintenance Tips
The best medicine for heating system trouble is preventive maintenance.
Schedule Regular Professional Service
Property owners should rely on HVAC repair and maintenance experts for routine maintenance that goes above and beyond exterior cleaning and changing filters. Technicians can quickly and efficiently perform thorough inspections and deep cleaning that will detect minor problems before they become major issues.
Promptly Replace Air Filters
Air filters are the first line of defense in protecting your HVAC system. Quality filters are essential to proper system operation and help provide better air quality. Even the cleanest home has microscopic dust and other debris that gets pulled into filters. Establish a schedule for replacing filters and stick to it.
Upgrade to a Smart Thermostat
A programmable thermostat that can be monitored remotely gives property owners unique control over their HVAC system, helping to avoid unnecessary wear and tear and energy usage when no one is present.
