When Good Heaters Go Bad

If your heater starts acting up when you need it to work, it is important to address the problem as soon as possible. Letting a heating problem linger can lead to even bigger issues down the line, which could result in needing a heater replacement installed in your home. Instead, call the experts at Prestigious Heating & Air Conditoning right away when you suspect that there is a problem with your heating system. 

The following signs may indicate that your heater is in need of repair: 

• Odd smells. If you haven’t turned your heater on in some time, some smells are normal upon turning it on. However, if you notice a strong, gas-like odor or other burning smells, it is important that you get help right away because it is likely a sign of a larger problem within your heating system.
• Cold or insufficiently heated air. With a properly functioning heater, your entire house should be able to be heated quickly and efficiently. However, if you are experiencing cold spots throughout your home or if your home still feels cold after the heater has been running for a while, it is a good idea to have a professional come to take a look at your heating system.
• Persistent, unusual noises. Noises like squeaking, thumping, banging, whistling, or other strange noises when you turn your heater on can indicate a problem with a heating system component.
• Carbon monoxide detection. Your home is equipped with a carbon monoxide detector that can tell you if this gas is present in your home. If your detector starts to go off, it is important that you get help as soon as possible, as this is a sure sign of an issue within your home’s heating system.
