8 Signs You Need Furnace Repair

Your furnace should provide warmth to every room in your home. If it’s not and some rooms in your home are too cold, reach out to one of our HVAC technicians for furnace maintenance or repair.
2. Your home’s energy bills increase suddenly.
If you aren’t using your furnace more, but your home heating bills are rising much more than they should, it could be that your furnace is losing efficiency and requires repair.
3. Loud sounds come from the furnace.
All HVAC systems make some noise, but if your furnace begins making odd noises—especially banging—it’s a sign you need it examined by an expert.
4. Your furnace keeps turning off and on.
Known as short cycling, a furnace that is constantly starting and stopping instead of turning on and running steadily through its cycle most likely needs repair from a skilled HVAC technician like the team members at Patterson & Stirling.
