Signs Of Furnace Failure
There are a variety of signs which can indicate a failing furnace requires prompt repair. In particular, our team frequently receives calls due to the following:
- The unit refused to start up.
- You hear strange noises while it is running.
- The blower is running continually.
- The main burner will not stay lit for longer than three seconds.
- The pilot light is out.
- Even with lit burners, the blower never turns on.
Why Is My Furnace Not Working?
What causes your unit to need furnace repair? A few components are the common culprits behind a furnace failing to provide the required heat. They can include, but are not limited to:
- No Power - If you are experiencing a loss of power, it could be due to a tripped breaker, loose wiring, or a switch turned off. More complicated problems could be due to trouble with the transformer, thermostat, control board, or blower motor. If unsure, a technician can perform a diagnostic test and quickly find a solution.
- Failing Motor - When dealing with a failing motor, you will be able to hear squeaks and squeals. You will want to seek immediate attention to save your motor from a complete breakdown.
- No Ignition - A burner will give off rapid clicking noises while trying to ignite. A faulty control board, a blocked flue, or improper limit control can cause complete failure to ignite. The ignition should run normally again after a quick repair or replacement of parts.
- Main Burner Problems - If a burner refuses to stay lit, it could be due to a dirty flame sensor or a clogged condensation drain. If it does not turn on at all, the gas supply could be cut off. When it comes to furnace repair, our technicians should only need to make a few adjustments and clean vital components.
- Issues with the Motor or Run Capacitor - Problems with either of these will cause a blower to not turn on after ignition. A capacitor is replaceable, whereas a motor will need more troubleshooting from a professional.
- Clogged Air Filter - A blower motor refusing to shut off could be due to a clogged air filter. This airflow restriction can damage a limit switch, causing it to run continuously. One of our workers will replace the switch and take care to pinpoint the exact problem, proceeding to instruct you on how to switch the filter in the future.

Furnace Replacements and Installation
Even systems with regular furnace maintenance can wear out and need replacing. With routine furnace repair, your system will likely last you 10 to 15 years before you start to lose efficiency. If your furnace's performance is in question, it may be time to ask the Aire Serv of East Valley service professionals about furnace replacement.
We can upgrade your furnace to a new model, or discuss if changing to an alternate heating source, such as a heat pump, may be more efficient for your home or business. Our furnace replacement services include ensuring every part of your HVAC system is ready for installation and removing your old system. If extended parts of your system need attention before your furnace replacement, such as repairing or replacing air ducts, our team has the expertise to handle it.
Furnace Repair vs Furnace Replacement
Furnace repair is often the simplest solution to restoring heat to your property. However, when the cost of furnace repairs outweighs the cost of installing a new system, a replacement can be a more financially sound and longer-lasting solution. Our service professionals can give you feedback during your furnace repair appointment and help you decide what course of action will be most successful for your space.
Signs You Need Furnace Replacement
- Your unit is older than 10 to 15 years
- You have skyrocketing heating bills
- A cold space, even when the system is running
- Uneven heating
- More frequent and costly repairs
- Your furnace cycles frequently
