Brighton winters are long, and a furnace that's been running hard since November tends to announce its problems in January. Schutz Heating & Cooling repairs furnaces throughout Brighton, Brighton Township and Green Oak Township, from lake homes to the subdivisions along Grand River and US-23.
Listen to What Your Furnace Is Telling You
New sounds are often the first sign something is wearing out:
- Squealing or grinding: a blower motor bearing or belt on its way out
- Loud bang at startup: delayed ignition, often from dirty burners
- Rattling: a loose panel, or in older units, a cracked heat exchanger
- Clicking with no flame: an ignition or gas valve problem
Catching these early usually means a smaller repair bill. If you hear a loud bang or smell gas, shut the furnace off and call right away.
Higher Gas Bills Without Colder Weather
If your heating bill keeps climbing year over year, your furnace may be losing efficiency. Dirty burners, a clogged filter, leaky ducts or a failing blower can all make it run longer. A tune-up often helps. If the furnace is near 20 years old, our energy bill guide and a look at new gas furnaces may be worth your time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is a loud bang from my furnace dangerous?
It can be. Delayed ignition puts stress on the heat exchanger. Turn the furnace off and have it checked.
How often should I replace my furnace filter?
Every one to three months for standard 1-inch filters, or as directed for thicker media filters.
