Top 4 Heating Issues and What You Can Do About Them
At Fulford Heating and Cooling,
we see a lot of heating unit
problems during the winter.
Here are the top four issues we
see and what you can do about
them.
LOSS OF HEAT
If your unit suddenly starts
blowing cool or cold air, do a
few checks first. Make sure the
thermostat is set properly. Make sure the circuit breakers are on. If you
have a fuel-heating system, make sure you have fuel.
If that's not the problem, or your system keeps tripping the breakers
constantly, you need to call Fulford Heating and Cooling. Circuit breakers
wear out. We can replace them. Other problems could be heating strips,
faulty pilots or ignition. Whatever the problem, we'll find it and let you know
what needs to be done.
CONSTANT CYCLING
If your system keeps turning on and off rapidly, then you may have a dirty
filter. When was the last time you changed the filter? Check that first. The
blower can also be a problem. That's something the professionals at Fullford
need to repair or replace.
The thermostat can also be an issue. If it's set for the right temperature, it
may be malfunctioning. We can test it and replace it if need be.
INCONSISTENT ROOM TEMPS
Expect some variation in rooms. The farther the room is from the
thermostat, the more temp variation you're going to see. But it should not
be a huge difference. You'll need to check very closely to see a difference.

If the difference is obvious, then you could have a collapsed air duct or an
obstructed duct. If you can get to the ductwork, look for holes, fallen or
collapsed ducts. If you see that, then call Fulford and we'll repair and inspect
the rest of the ductwork just to be sure nothing else is wrong.
Dirty filters can also cause this.
CARBON MONOXIDE
This is a concern for fuel-powered furnaces. If your system is 10 to 15 years
old or older, you have a high risk of a rusted heat exchanger. Rust creates
pits and pinholes (which get larger) and cracks. This can allow carbon
monoxide to come into your home. Carbon monoxide is called a "silent killer"
because it has no odor and the body doesn't react to it.
If you are experiencing any of these issues, contact Fulford Heating and
Cooling today. We are glad to check your system and make the necessary
repairs to keep you comfortable and safe this winter season – and all year
long.
