But if you’d prefer to avoid such emergencies, keep an eye out for the following signals, each of which can be a sign that your furnace is in need of repairs:
- Strange smells coming from the vents
When you start your furnace for the first time in a while, it’s normal for it to burn off accumulated dust. But the smell from burning off dust should fade within a few minutes. If it doesn’t give us a call to investigate the issue.
Similarly, smells of burning plastic, rotten eggs, or stinky socks can be each be a sign of serious issues. If you notice any of these smells, call us immediately to take a look. Although modern heating systems are incredibly safe compared to dated models, each of these smells suggests a problem that should be addressed as soon as possible. - Climbing energy bills
If your utility bill suddenly jumps without an obvious explanation, it could mean your furnace is working overtime to keep you warm. This could be a sign of clogged vents, failing fans, or a variety of other issues. Unless you enjoy the higher bills, give us a call so that we help make your furnace as energy efficient as possible again. - Strange noises
The sound of air blowing through your vents should be expected. But if your furnace starts making new noises, it’s a good idea to call in a professional. Clicking, banging, rattling, humming, and squeaking noises can all be signs of serious problems. So if you notice any of those, don’t hesitate to give us a call. - Cold areas in your home or cold air coming from vents
Although it’s obvious, it’s worth noting that if your furnace is blowing cold air instead of warm air, that’s a problem. It can be caused by any of a variety of different issues, some of which can be serious. So it’s best to call for HVAC services immediately if you notice your furnace blowing out cool air.
Similarly, if certain sections of your home aren’t getting the heat they need, give us a call. When an area that used to be warm and cozy starts to feel chilly, it’s probably just an airflow issue. While such issues aren’t typically urgent, they contribute to higher energy bills, lower comfort levels, and should be addressed sooner than later.

In most cases, there will be a definitive solution. But when you have an aging furnace in need of expensive repairs, it might make more sense to replace it.
