Common Signs Your Heating System Needs Repair
Look out for these signs and address them as soon as possible to prevent a heating breakdown:
- Inconsistent heating: If some rooms are much colder than others, it could be an issue with your heating system, thermostat, or ductwork.
- Unusual noises: Banging, grinding, or squealing noises point to mechanical issues that need professional attention.
- Short-cycling: If your heater turns on and off frequently without reaching the set temperature, it needs repair.
- Rising energy bills: A sudden spike in your utility bill could mean your heating system is wasting energy.
- Lukewarm air: If your system blows cool air instead of warm air, something is wrong.
If your system is older and requires frequent or major repairs, it may be more cost-effective to consider a heating replacement. The team at Polestar can assess your system and help you understand all your options.
Furnace Repair
The heating experts at Polestar repair gas and electric furnaces in Kansas City homes.
Gas furnaces can develop problems with the ignition system, gas valve, or heat exchanger, while electric furnaces may face issues like faulty heating elements or electrical connections.
Our technicians are trained to troubleshoot and repair all furnace types and are available 24/7.
Boiler Repair
If your boiler makes strange noises, leaks, or can’t heat your home properly, it’s time to call the experts. Boilers are prone to issues such as low water pressure, leaks, and broken valves.
Polestar offers same-day boiler services to restore your system for consistent warmth throughout your home. We’ll diagnose the issue and get your boiler back up and running quickly.
Heat Pump Repair
Heat pumps are highly efficient systems that both heat and cool your home. Since they work hard year-round, they may experience issues such as refrigerant leaks, frozen coils, or faulty reversing valves.
At Polestar, we offer 24/7 heat pump repair services to keep your system running smoothly, whether it’s heating your home in winter or cooling it in summer.
Heating Troubleshooting Tips Before Calling a Professional
When your heating system isn’t working, there are a few things you can try on your own before giving us a call. Performing some basic troubleshooting might save you time and prevent unnecessary service visits.
Here are some steps you can take:
- Check your thermostat: Make sure your thermostat is set to the correct temperature and in “heat” mode.
- Change the air filters: Clogged air filters can reduce airflow, causing your furnace or heat pump to work harder.
- Check the vents: Make sure your vents are open and aren’t blocked by furniture or other objects.
- Check your circuit breakers: If your heating system won’t turn on at all, check to see if a breaker has tripped.
If these tips don’t resolve the problem, it’s best to have a professional inspect your heating system.
