5 Signs of a Damaged Heater
The last thing you want to do is wait until you need your heater to find out it’s broken. Before the winter season rolls around, be sure to get heater maintenance to fix any minor issues you may have. If you don’t, at least be on the lookout for warning signs of a possible breakdown.
- High Electric Bills: Most homes have a central heating and cooling system that provides both ranges of temperatures. If you see that your bill is coming in higher than usual, mainly when your system is in higher use, mechanical or electrical failures may be to blame.
- Poor Air Quality: Your heater has plenty of moving parts that collect dust over time. That same dust can find its way into the air you breath, leaving you and your family with respiratory issues and discomfort. Any uptick in air quality issues can generally be attributed to a faulty system.
- Fluctuating Temperatures: When you need your heater to work, you want it to actually produce hot air. If your air temperatures are fluctuating from cold to boiling, never making your home comfortable, a thermostat issue could be the problem.
- System Won’t Turn On: A heater that won’t turn on is an emergency. Whether it’s a complete electrical failure or an old unit, we are available for 24/7 emergency services, available when you need us most.
- Low Air Flow: Common in older heaters, over time your system may have a harder time producing enough air to heat your home. Put your hand up to your vents to feel how much air is coming through. If some rooms get more air than others, a technician is needed to get to the source of the problem.

Types of Heating Systems
There isn’t just one way to heat your home! Here are some of the most common types of heaters we install. If you’re in the market for a new heater and not sure which is right for you, give us a call and let our experts guide you.
- Central Heating: Most homes built in the last 50 years use a furnace for their heat. The furnace blows hot air through ducts throughout the house, which flows into rooms via registers. A central heating unit can be powered by gas, electricity or oil.
- Boilers: While these systems are more commonly found in large buildings, some homes use them as well. They work by heating water and then moving that water throughout the home to be disbursed by radiators. The cool water returns to be heated again and the process repeated.
- Heat Pumps: These modern units work like an air conditioner in that instead of bringing in warm air from outside and cooling it, the heat pump brings in air warmed by an electrical system and then pumps it throughout the house.
