Signs You Need Heating System Repair
When faced with the stress of a malfunctioning heater, it can be hard to know what problems warrant professional attention. If you notice any of these signs, it’s time to call First Mate to schedule heating repairs:
- Increased utility bills
- Uneven heating or cold spots
- Strange noises or smells
- Poor airflow
Common Causes of Heating Issues
Knowing the common causes of heating system problems can help you determine which issues are safe to troubleshoot at home and which ones mean it’s time to call a professional.
One item to check is your thermostat, to make sure your temperature settings will activate your heater and, if the settings are fine, to make sure the thermostat’s batteries still work.
Ensure your system’s air filters are also clean, as dirty filters can obstruct airflow and compromise heat. Lastly, check that your heater and your breaker or fuse are on. If these troubleshooting tips don’t resolve the issue, it’s time for a First Mate technician to investigate the deeper cause of your heater’s malfunction.

Heating Repair FAQs
What’s the lifespan of a furnace?
A furnace lasts between 15 and 30 years, depending on usage, quality, and frequency of maintenance.
