Furnace Repair in Pinckney, MI

Pinckney sits next to thousands of acres of state recreation land, and plenty of homes here are set back on wooded lots or along the chain of lakes. Many of them heat with propane. Schutz Heating & Cooling repairs propane and natural gas furnaces in the village and out in the surrounding township, and we're used to the long driveways and tucked-away homes that come with the area.

Propane Furnace Issues

Propane furnaces work much like natural gas units, but they have a few problems of their own:

• A tank that runs low can let air into the lines, so the furnace won't light even after a refill
• Regulators can freeze or fail in very cold weather
• A furnace converted from natural gas needs the right orifices and pressure settings

If your tank recently ran empty, your propane supplier may need to do a leak check before the system is relit. Once gas is back, we can get the furnace running and make sure it's burning correctly.

Other Common Repairs

Beyond fuel issues, the calls we get most in Pinckney are for failed ignitors, dirty flame sensors, worn blower motors and thermostats that lost their settings after a power outage. Our troubleshooting guide covers a few checks you can try before calling.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a heat pump a good option if I'm on propane?

For many homes, yes. A heat pump paired with your propane furnace can cut fuel use on mild days, and the furnace takes over when it gets very cold.

How often should a propane furnace be serviced?

Once a year, ideally in the fall. Annual service also keeps your Trane warranty coverage in place.
