Common Heating Problems We Solve
Not sure what’s wrong with your heater? That’s okay. Most homeowners contact us when they notice symptoms, not the cause. Our heating services team in Lakewood are trained to identify the issues and provide the most efficient and affordable solution. Below are common heating warning signs:
- Cold air blowing from vents even when the heat is on
- Uneven heating across different rooms
- Heater short-cycling (turning off and on frequently)
- Rising gas or electric bills despite similar usage
- Strange smells when the heat kicks on, like burning dust or mustiness
- Unusual noises, such as banging, rattling, or humming
- Thermostat not responding or inaccurate temperature readings
- Radiant ceiling heat zones not functioning properly
If you’re experiencing any of these issues in your Lakewood or Long Beach home, it’s time to have your system checked. Addressing problems early can reduce repair costs, avoid system failure, and keep your household safe and comfortable.
“The first time our furnace tried to turn on this year it didn’t. We called Dial One Schilling and we’re told they will try and get someone out the same day but it might be the next day. Fortunately, for us they were able to send someone the same day. We needed a new starter and thankfully he had one in the truck.”
