The last thing that you want this winter season is for your furnace to suddenly stop working on you. This can leave your home unexpectedly cold. However, this scenario plays out because many people do not educate themselves on the signs that their furnace will give them if they are in need of furnace repair. Here are some of the signs that you may be in need of furnace repair.

One of the signs that you may be in need of furnace repair is that your furnace is not working as efficiently as it once did. Your home may not be heating as quickly or the unit may need to run for longer than it has in the past. Strange noises is another sign that something may be amiss with your heating unit. If you hear banging, clanking, squealing or grinding, you want to get your unit inspected. The last common sign a furnace will give you if something is not quite right is strange smells. You may smell a burning smell, a smell that has an electric or metallic scent to it, or worse, a sulfur or gas-like scent.

Unfortunately, if you wait too long to have furnace repair completed, you may not only find that your home goes cold, but you may have ruined your unit in the process and may also now need new furnace installation instead of just furnace repair . Whether you need furnace repair or furnace installation, Hometown Heating & Cooling is here to help you with all of your heating and cooling needs. Reach out to us today to schedule an appointment as soon as you notice one or more of the above signs.
