Signs To Know That Means You Need Repairs
Knowing what the signs of trouble are will help alert you to trouble early so you can get it fixed before things get worse.
- Your heater is making concerning noises: You know what your heater is supposed to sound like on an average day. New, loud noises shouldn’t be brushed off. Keep your ears peeled for rattling, screeching, whistling, hissing, booming, or buzzing, and make a call for repairs if you hear them.
- The system is costing a lot of cash each month: How much are your monthly energy bills. Have they increased this month compared to last month? What about compared to the same time last year? If your heater is getting more expensive to run it likely means it needs expert repairs.
- Your heater heats some areas but not others: You walk out of the living room and hit a cold spot in the hallway. Or perhaps you stay away from the guest bedroom because it never heats up. These are cold spots that are alerting you to a problem with the heater that is hindering its ability to evenly heat the house.
- Your system short cycles or runs nonstop: Heaters are meant to run in regular cycles that average around 15 minutes before shutting off. But what if your heater never seems to stop running or only runs for a few minutes before turning off? These irregular cycles are signs of trouble that need to be addressed fast before they cause a full breakdown.
