What should I check before I call for heating repair?

"BEFORE YOU CALL"  No Heat Checklist
Some repairs are quite simple. Use this checklist before calling for a repair. It may save you time and money.

1.   Check the thermostat to be sure it’s set on “heat” for wintertime operation.
2.  Check the circuit breaker in the electrical panel to be sure it’s set in the on position. If you have fuses, check for a blown fuse.
3.   Is there power to the furnace? Check that all switches are in the on position.
4.  Has the filter been changed? A blocked filter can cause a furnace to shut down due to inadequate air flow. Similarly, are the air intake grills open and clear of obstructions?
5.  Clean the contacts on a non-digital thermostat.

If you’ve gone through the “Before You Call” checklist and are still having problems, call or text Advantage Air Heating & Cooling at (630) 949-8600 for service!

Why do I need maintenance or cleaning of my Heating & AC system?

Would you drive your car 100,000 miles without changing the oil? Your home comfort system needs regular furnace maintenance and AC maintenance to avoid rising utility bills and to keep problems from arising at the most inconvenient time. Small problems can turn into large problems if not caught in time. 

Regular HVAC preventative maintenance is the best way to ensure trouble-free operation and peak performance. Pre-season maintenance is also important. It can help to avoid a system failure in severe hot or cold weather when you need it most, and it can also keep your energy bill from getting out of control.

Regardless of make and model, nearly all furnace and air conditioner manufacturers require that their systems be cleaned annually in order to maintain warranty coverage. They realize how a lack of proper  maintenance can damage the vital components within the units. This is why manufactures include a maintenance requirement within their warranties and failure to complete the cleanings regularly will result in loss of coverage.

How do I know it’s time to replace my furnace or air conditioner?

-> Are you dissatisfied with the operation of your current air conditioner or heating system?
-> Are you concerned about high utility bills?
-> Is your home not cool enough during the summer or warm enough during the winter?
-> Is your current Furnace or AC more than 12-15 years old?
-> Is your current Furnace or AC very noisy?  Do you have to crank up the TV volume when the Furnace or Blower Fan kicks on?
-> Have you had major Furnace repairs in the last 2 years or have needed to add refrigerant to your AC the last couple season?

If you answered YES to any of these questions, schedule a no-cost HVAC Quote with Advantage Air Heating & Cooling.  We will provide you with a free, no-obligation estimate on a new Furnace install, new AC install, or complete HVAC system installation provided by a skilled Technician, never a salesperson.
