Top 5 Furnace and Heating Problems in Calgary

We have discussed common air conditioning problems, now we’d like to share common furnace and heating issues Calgary homeowners often call A1 Chesney Service Experts about. Although there are potentially hundreds of explanations why your Calgary home’s furnace or heating system may need to be repaired. Here are the top five issues that may cause your furnace or heating equipment to break down: 
 

1. Thermostat glitches resulting in no heat, fan spinning or comfort problems 

2. Air passage problems from fan motors, belts and bearings, causing furnace excessive heat or poor heating control 

3. Dirty or clogged filters which develops airflow and comfort problems 

4. Pilot light or furnace ignition issues, resulting in intermittent or no heat 

5. Inconsistent maintenance history may cause unanticipated breakdowns, poor comfort or higher energy costs (plus a lot of homeowner frustration!) 

 
All of these common issues can be addressed by a professionally qualified, certified technician. Technicians from A1 Chesney Service Experts can quickly spot the problem area and make the necessary repairs. Getting a maintenance plan could protect you from nearly all heating problems that leave you with no heat or low comfort levels. With a proper tune-up, all the components are checked and serviced so they work correctly and at maximum efficiency during the heating season. Critical items like Carbon Monoxide checks, plenty of combustion air, equipment clearances, and equipment safety are also key elements to the tune-up process. Don’t forget – safety first! Never forget that furnaces of any age have the potential to pose safety hazards from combustion or gases, particularly if a ACE-certified technician has not maintained the equipment regularly.
