Common Furnace Problems We Fix
A malfunctioning furnace can suffer from an array of issues, but Fayette’s heating experts can determine the cause and make repairs in no time. Here are some common problems our furnace repair experts fix:
No Heat or Insufficient Heat: Faulty thermostats, pilot light issues, and blower problems may cause insufficient heating.
Frequent Cycling: A clogged air filter or other airflow blockage can make your furnace cycle on and off.
Unusual Noises: Rattling, banging, and squealing noises typically result from blower problems.
High Energy Bills: If your energy bills have consistently been higher than normal, Fayette can inspect your furnace and resolve any inefficiencies raising your costs.
Pilot Light or Ignition Issues: If a furnace’s pilot light won’t stay on, or if your furnace simply won’t start, call Fayette immediately. Sometimes, these issues are rooted in excess debris, but other times, there may be issues with your gas supply. Your best bet is to play it safe and call a furnace repair service.

How do I know if my furnace needs repair?
Strange smells, yellow pilot lights, inadequate heating, loud noises, and a tripped carbon monoxide detector can all signal a need for furnace repair or replacement. If your furnace simply will not start, then repair or replacement is necessary.
What should I do if my furnace stops working?
If your furnace stops working, you should first check on your electricity. If your power isn’t out and the furnace is receiving electricity, check your thermostat. If your thermostat seems to be working, inspect your furnace, safely checking the following: the shutoff switch, blower motor, furnace filter, pilot light, and outdoor vents.
