Heating repair in New Jersey is the better option for minor repairs on new units.

Our expert team can help you determine if repair or replacement is right for you.

DIY Heating System Troubleshooting

If your heating system isn’t performing properly, there are some things you can do to troubleshoot it before calling the professionals at Len The Plumber Heating & Air:

  • Check your thermostat: First, ensure your thermostat is set to heat with the fan on auto.
  • Change the air filter: A clogged filter can cause insufficient airflow and overheating.
  • Ensure vents aren’t blocked: Check your vents to make sure they aren’t blocked by furniture, window treatments, rugs, or clutter.
  • Check your power supply: Check your circuit breaker if you have an electric system. If you have a gas system, check to ensure the pilot light is lit and blue.

If none of these solutions fix the problem, it’s time to call the professionals. We can assess your system quickly, determine the cause of the problem, and provide an effective and lasting solution.

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do while I wait for emergency heating repairs?

When waiting for a heater repair in NJ, keep your home as warm as possible by keeping windows and doors closed, including doors to colder areas of your home like the basement or garage.

If the sun is shining, open your curtains, but keep them closed if it’s cloudy. You can also use space heaters and appliances that give off heat, such as dryers, ovens, and dishwashers, to generate more heat.

How do I know if my heating system is broken?

If your heater is not producing heat or doesn’t turn on or off when you adjust the thermostat, there’s likely a problem that needs to be addressed by a professional.

Why is my heating system making strange noises?

Although most heaters will produce some sound when operating normally, sounds like grinding, rumbling, squeaking, and humming can be a sign of a problem.

Issues that cause these types of noises typically come from a problem with the system’s motor or fan or, in the case of hydronic systems, a pressure problem.

Why won’t my furnace turn on even though the thermostat is set correctly?

A furnace that won’t start may have a tripped circuit breaker, a faulty ignition system, a blown fuse, a clogged filter, or an electrical issue. An HVAC technician can diagnose the problem and restore safe operation.

Why is my heating system blowing cool air instead of warm air?

Cool air from your vents can be caused by ignition problems, thermostat malfunctions, airflow restrictions, overheating safety controls, or other furnace components that need repair.

What causes heating bills to increase unexpectedly during winter?

Rising energy costs often result from reduced system efficiency due to dirty components, aging equipment, airflow restrictions, duct leaks, or delayed heating repairs.

Can a dirty air filter cause furnace problems?

Yes. A clogged filter restricts airflow, forces the system to work harder, reduces efficiency, and can even cause overheating or premature component wear if not replaced regularly.

Why does my furnace take longer than normal to heat my home?

Slow heating performance may be related to dirty burners, worn components, thermostat issues, restricted airflow, or a system that requires professional furnace repair.

Should I call for heating repair if my furnace smells?

While a brief, dusty odor at the start of the heating season can be normal, persistent burning, electrical, or gas-like odors should be inspected immediately by a qualified technician.

Can electrical problems affect an electric furnace?

Absolutely. Faulty wiring, damaged heating elements, failing relays, or electrical connection issues can prevent an electric furnace from operating safely and efficiently.

Why does my furnace run continuously without reaching the desired temperature?

This can occur due to airflow restrictions, thermostat calibration issues, poor insulation, ductwork leaks, or heating equipment requiring repair or adjustment.

How quickly should I schedule furnace repair after noticing a problem?

It’s best to schedule service as soon as possible. Minor issues often become more expensive repairs if left unresolved and may increase the risk of a complete system breakdown.
