When your heating unit constantly cycles on and off, it can be extremely inefficient. Not only is this an example of poor energy usage, but the noise can become unnecessarily annoying. If this is happening, the first place to check is your air filter. A dirty air filter places extra strain on the heating unit when it gets clogged with dirt or debris. This can cause it to cycle. If that doesn’t solve the problem, your thermostat may be to blame.

If your furnace isn’t producing any air at all, first check the power and ensure it hasn’t been tripped. If that doesn’t solve the problem, you could be looking at a faulty motor or a pilot light that has gone out. Call Brown’s for heating repair services to find out for sure.

If your heating unit is blowing cold air, chances are your thermostat has been switched to cool. Our repair technicians will also see this as a result of an overheated heating system. This can occur if the filter is dirty or blocked. If either of those quick repair solutions doesn’t work and you still have cold air blowing, it’s time to call for heating repair services.

If your home has notorious cold and hot spots, your system may be running inefficiently due to a lack of maintenance. Dirty coils can cause your system to work harder than it has to, for example, leading to cold and hot spots. Remember, it’s never too late to call for routine heating maintenance.

Have you noticed your energy bills are higher than usual? This is a common sign that your heating unit is not working correctly.
