Frequently Asked Questions
My furnace is making strange noises. Is it safe to continue using it?
Furnaces are designed to run relatively quietly to minimize disruption, usually producing a minor humming sound during cycles or a click as the cycle initiates. Abnormally loud or persistent noises, such as banging, screeching, scraping, whistling, or buzzing may indicate damaged components, loose fasteners or parts, or airflow problems.
In most cases, these noises suggest underlying problems that may worsen if left unaddressed and require professional repair. Consult with your HVAC technician to determine if you can safely continue using your furnace while awaiting professional repair.
There is a burning smell coming from my furnace. Is this an emergency?
While you shouldn’t ignore a burning smell from your furnace, it isn’t always an emergency. Furnaces often emit burning smells when they turn on for the first time after remaining idle for an extended period, typically from dust buildup throughout the system. Like other appliances, new furnaces also emit mild burning smells during their first few uses. In either case, this smell should dissipate shortly after the furnace starts a heating cycle.
Other burning smells that persist or increase may stem from overheating electrical components or circuit boards, foreign objects in your system, restricted airflow, or oil leaks. These smells are unlikely to go away on their own and may lead to further damage and present safety hazards — schedule an urgent repair with an HVAC technician and either minimize use or turn off your furnace until the repair is complete.
My energy bills are high. Can you identify if my furnace is the cause and how to improve its efficiency?
An inefficient furnace may lead to high energy or other utility bills. Our team can inspect and audit your system for inefficiencies, such as dirty air filters, an improperly sized unit, damaged ductwork, outdated equipment, or worn components.
