Climbing Utility Bills

Climbing Utility Bills

This is one of the earliest and most common signs that something is wrong, and often the easiest to miss. If you see that your utility bills are climbing, check for a rate increase. If you’re seeing a bill that’s climbing out of proportion to rate increases, it could be that your furnace has an operating problem.

Unusual Sounds

Unusual Noises and Smells

Furnaces aren’t silent when they run. Your furnace has a series of steps it cycles through as it cycles up, runs, and cycles back down. Your home, likewise, has a scent all its own. When those smells and noises suddenly change, it’s a good idea to call us. There’s one exception: get everyone out of the house and dial 911 if there's a rotten egg smell.

Odd Sights

Odd Sights

Natural gas burns clean, and gas burners — in your furnace and stove alike — emit a blue flame. If that flame is any other color, that spells trouble. A dirty burner, or an inefficient burn, can cause a color change in the flame. That color change, in turn, is often a warning of a potential carbon monoxide risk.

Thermostat Problems

Thermostat Problems

Your furnace problems don’t always start in your furnace. Furnaces, like air conditioning units, can “short cycle,” meaning that they rapidly run through brief periods of run time at rapid intervals. Short cycling is often a sign of a thermostat problem (though it can have other causes, too, like a draft). It’s annoying, but worse than that, it’s also causing mechanical stress on the system. On the brighter side, new smart thermostats can lead to much better control and energy efficiency.

Air Quality Issues

Air Quality Issues

Choosing the right source for home heating repair matters. Indoor air quality is a great example. If your allergies are acting up for no apparent reason, if your throat is always dry and scratchy, or if a family member’s asthma never seems to improve no matter what you do, there can be several causes. Sometimes, it’s a simple fix (like changing your air filters if you’d forgotten), but in other instances, the culprit can be mold or mildew in your HVAC system — which may not be your furnace and require plumbing repair. Our experience leads us to find problems and solutions that others could miss.

Ace Plumbing Heating and Air Conditioning gives you a quick fix and decades of expertise to ensure your furnace runs smoothly.

Average Furnace Lifespan

Furnaces last 18 to 20 years on average. We’ve seen them last longer with good maintenance, but we’ve also seen them fail long before then for a number of reasons. Poor equipment choices and a lack of maintenance will lead to that duration being much shorter. So if you’re relying on us for a Sacramento furnace installation, take our advice for the best new furnace for your home. But don’t stop there — make sure you take advantage of our New Window home heating tune-ups as well.

Furnace Repair Vs Furnace Replacement

Age is a prime reason to replace your furnace. But it’s hardly the only one. Over time, any mechanical system is prone to more frequent breakdowns, and those repair costs add up faster than you might think. What’s more, if you’ve added to your home, your old system may not be up to the task even if you’ve kept it in good working order. It’s also worth bearing in mind that designs have advanced considerably, with newer furnaces delivering much better efficiency numbers — and, with them, lower operating costs.

Cost Factors

Unlike a furnace replacement, where there are many cost variables from the size of your home to the type of system you’re choosing, repairs tend to be a bit more straightforward. That said, costs for parts and labor can vary based on the nature of the repair, which is why we’ll always give you an estimate up-front so you can make an educated choice.
