Heating repair

Houston winters are short, but a cold snap with no heat is miserable. We repair gas furnaces, heat pumps, and the electric heat strips most local homes rely on.

Signs your heat needs a look

  • The heat runs but the air stays cool
  • A burning smell lasts past the first few minutes of the season
  • The furnace starts, then shuts itself off
  • The heat pump is iced over and stays that way
  • The ignitor clicks but the burners never light

What we fix

  • Furnace ignitors, flame sensors, and safety switches
  • Heat pump defrost and reversing valve problems
  • Electric heat strips and sequencers
  • Gas and venting safety checks
  • Thermostats that won't switch to heat

Questions about heating repair

A dusty smell for the first few minutes of the season is normal. A smell that lingers, or smells electrical, is not. Turn the system off and call.

Light frost in cold weather is normal, and the defrost cycle clears it. A solid block of ice, or ice that sticks around for hours, means something is wrong.
