WARNING SIGNS

6 Signs Your Furnace Needs a Repair

A furnace that’s still technically running isn’t necessarily a furnace that’s fine. Ignore the wrong issue long enough and you could end up facing a full shutdown, or a replacement you didn’t need to pay for. Watch for these signs:

Frequent Adjustment of Thermostat

Constantly fiddling with the thermostat to get comfortable is a sign your furnace itself may need attention. A small adjustment shouldn’t swing your home’s temperature dramatically.

Poor Smells

A bad smell coming from your furnace usually means something needs professional attention. A brand-new furnace can have a brief odor right after installation, but that fades fast — if a strange smell shows up out of nowhere afterward, get KB Complete out to inspect it soon.

Unexplained Increase in Energy Bill

An energy bill that’s climbing without explanation often means your furnace is working overtime to compensate for a problem. A quick inspection from a KB Complete technician can confirm whether that’s what’s driving the increase.

Unsettling Noises

A steady hum is normal for a running furnace. Anything louder or stranger than that warrants a call to a repair technician.

Won’t Start

Trouble starting up, or staying on once it does, usually points to a repair need. Occasionally it’s as simple as a filter or flame sensor, but ignoring the issue can let it grow into something much bigger.

Your House Takes a Long Time to Heat Up

If it’s taking noticeably longer for your house to warm up, an inefficiency inside your furnace is likely the culprit. Getting it looked at now can prevent a bigger headache later.
