What Should You Expect When You Call Deljo for Heating Repair in the Chicago Area?

Let’s face it – your furnace probably didn’t break down at a convenient time. When you call us for furnace service, here’s what happens:

First, we’ll ask about what’s happening with your system. Is your furnace making strange noises? Not heating evenly? Blowing cold air? These details help us identify the problem quickly.

Then, we’ll dispatch the nearest technician to your home. They’ll arrive in a fully-stocked service vehicle, ready to solve your heating problem on the first visit. Before making any furnace repairs, they’ll explain exactly what’s wrong and provide upfront pricing before fixing your heating system.

How Do Deljo Technicians Resolve Common Heating System Problems?

Problem: Furnace or heat pump blowing cold supply air throughout your home.

Solution: Cold supply air often stems from dirty flame sensors, tripped high-limit thermal switches, or clogged air filters. Technicians clean internal sensors and recalibrate static airflow.

Problem: Boiler or radiator system failing to circulate hot water or banging loudly in pipes.

Solution: Trapped air pockets, faulty circulator pumps, or bad zone valves restrict hydronic distribution. Technicians bleed air, balance pressure, and replace defective valves.

Problem: Furnace short-cycling on and off rapidly without reaching the thermostat setpoint.

Solution: Short-cycling usually indicates restricted return airflow or malfunctioning thermostat wiring. Replacing air filters and checking control boards restores steady operation.

Problem: Yellow or flickering pilot light flame on a gas furnace or boiler.

Solution: A yellow pilot flame signals incomplete gas combustion and potential carbon monoxide hazards. Technicians clean gas burners and verify flue exhaust venting for home safety.

Heating Repair FAQs

Why Is Deljo's Century of Trust the Right Choice for Your Chicago Home?

Since 1922, Chicago families have trusted Deljo for one simple reason: we treat your home like our own. Our technicians are carefully screened, drug-tested, and extensively trained. They'll treat your home with respect, wearing booties and using drop cloths to keep your space clean.
Deljo Heating, Cooling & Plumbing provides 24/7 live call intake and priority emergency dispatch across Chicago. During severe winter freeze warnings, our technicians are deployed in fully-stocked vehicles to restore heat as quickly as possible.
If your furnace or boiler is under 12 to 15 years old and experiencing an isolated issue, diagnostic repair is usually the best option. However, if your equipment requires constant service calls, has a cracked heat exchanger, or faces a repair quote exceeding 50% of a new unit, replacement provides better long-term reliability and energy savings.
Before scheduling service, verify that your thermostat is set to "Heat," check that thermostat batteries are fresh, ensure your circuit breaker hasn't tripped, and verify your air filter is clean and unblocked.

This was my first time as a Deljo customer, and I was very pleased. My technician, Giovanni, was very thorough and diligent. He serviced my furnace and identified a faulty sensor that was causing the unit to shut itself down. Deljo ordered the part, and Giovanni replaced it a few days later. Overall, the team at Deljo was great. The dispatcher kept me informed about Giovanni’s arrival time, and the supervisor assisted Giovanni when he was diagnosing the problem with the furnace. I highly recommend Deljo.

I’ve used Deljo for over 10 years now and they always do a good job. Izzy was the technician for this visit and he did an excellent job with my winter maintenance on my multiple units in the household. He also addressed an issue while cleaning the furnace blower wheel. His communication was clear and concise with what he planned to do to address the issue quickly. He was confident and I had 0 concerns or questions. Great job Izzy!

Paul was great! Arrived on time and completed maintenance on my humidifier, tankless water heater, and two furnaces. All work was performed under my Gold Star maintenance program, so all maintenance charges were covered. Paul did provide a few proposals for additional services on furnace & tankless water heater, but those were emailed to me for further consideration. Paul was friendly, knowledgeable, and answered all my questions.

Gabe did an excellent job with our annual service visit. He arrived in the early part of our service window, was friendly and knowledgeable, and got the work done in a very reasonable amount of time. I have great confidence in Deljo, and am a long-time customer.

I’ve been using Deljo for 20 years for HVAC but now venture into enlisting their plumbing services. Bashar was very courteous, efficient & informative, and I’d definitely request him again for the next plumbing job. Great experience!

Working with Deljo is always a good experience, and today’s appointment with Izzy was no different. He was able to come early which actually worked better with our schedules, but called me ahead of time to make sure that was okay. He was friendly and knowledgeable when he explained the work he had done during his visit and our options for fixes. He was also able to schedule a quote appointment for us while he was still here. We would highly recommend working with Izzy and the Deljo team!

Drew performed the seasonal maintenance on my AC. It needed some repairs and updates and he was able to fix everything at the same appointment. He also noticed issues with the hot water heater and we were able to get ahead of that, as well.

I would leave six out of five stars if I could! My technician Jorge went above and beyond on his service. There was buildup in the rental property’s toilet from the previous tenant. One maintenance person did a surface level job of cleaning but did not fully remove the obstruction. Jorge went above and beyond and came to a solution and even explained the perpetual problems older toilet models can cause. Moving forward with this insight, I can perform my own upkeep the previous tenant did not. Thank you kindly!

We just had our new boiler installed by Jonathan and Carlos. First rate work! They arrived on time, removed the old boiler, installed the new unit, and explained the features. Both guys were pleasant. Bring on the cold this winter! We are ready thanks to the team from Deljo.
