3 Signs That Your Furnace is in Need of Repair



We depend on our furnaces a lot in the winter months to keep our homes warm, and often we don't give it a lot of thought or attention. But it's important to stay in tune with your heating system, so you can recognize problems before they become too big. By watching for some of these signs, you may be able to notice an issue before you wake up on the coldest day of the year with no heat. Call for furnace repair if:
  1. Your heating bills are higher than last year at this time. Bills fluctuate some depending on weather conditions, but if there's a big difference from year to year, it could be a warning sign.
  2. Your furnace is making different noises. You know what your furnace usually sounds like, so if it starts making uncharacteristic rattles, or bangs, you probably want to call for service.
  3. You experience uneven heating. If you're constantly checking the thermostat, and feel like you have cold areas in the house that weren't that way before, your furnace may need a tune-up.



There are still cold days ahead and we want to make sure our community members are staying warm and healthy. If you're experiencing any of these issues, contact a Waldorf MD heating expert for an evaluation.
