A furnace works by igniting a fuel source (typically natural gas or oil) in order to generate heat. The heat is then circulated throughout the home using a blower and duct system, maintaining a comfortable indoor temperature.

Furnaces typically last 15-20 years with proper maintenance, but their lifespan can vary depending on usage and care. Regular maintenance and inspections are the best way to extend longevity.

You should change your furnace filter every 1 to 3 months, depending on factors like filter type and indoor air quality. Our technicians can provide a more concrete answer after inspecting your unit in person.

A few other reasons HVAC inspections are highly recommended: 

• To achieve optimal HVAC performance and preventative care
• Education on HVAC repair or replacement
• Helps you find a trustworthy HVAC partner
• Understanding of HVAC technician actions inside and outside the home
• Somewhat predict the lifespan of equipment to help allocate necessary budgeting

Heat pumps work by transferring heat from one area to another using a refrigeration cycle. This provides both heating and cooling by reversing the direction of heat flow. In the summer, a heat pump works by moving hot air outside to keep your home cool and in the winter, it moves hot air from outside into the home to keep you warm.

There are several possible reasons that may explain why your heater is blowing cold air. It could be due to issues with the thermostat, a malfunctioning pilot light or ignition system, a clogged air filter, or lack of maintenance. Our highly trained technicians can quickly and accurately diagnose the problem and repair your system.

A water heater can leak for several reasons including a faulty pressure relief valve, corrosion, a damaged drain valve, or sediment buildup. If this happens, turn off the power and water supply immediately and call for professional assistance, as ignoring it can lead to water damage and safety concerns.
