Our Furnace Repair Process

Straightforward Repairs, No Hidden Steps

First, we listen to what’s happening with your heating system. Strange noises, uneven heating, high bills – every detail helps us diagnose the real problem faster.

Once we’ve found the problem, we explain your options clearly. Sometimes it’s a simple repair that gets you back up and running quickly. Other times, we might recommend a more comprehensive fix that prevents future breakdowns. Either way, you decide what makes sense for your situation.

After the repair, we test everything to make sure your furnace is running safely and efficiently. We clean up our work area and walk you through what we did, so you understand exactly what was fixed.

Complete Furnace Repair and Maintenance

Everything Your Heating System Needs

Our furnace repair service covers both oil and gas heating systems, from older units that need specialized attention to newer systems requiring precise diagnostics. We handle emergency breakdowns, routine maintenance, and everything in between.

Many Norwood homes have heating systems that are 15-20 years old or more. These furnaces need technicians who understand how they work and what commonly goes wrong. We’ve worked on every major brand and model, so we know how to get your specific system running properly again.

Beyond just fixing immediate problems, we identify potential issues before they become expensive emergencies. Regular furnace maintenance and timely repairs keep your heating costs down and extend your system’s lifespan significantly.

Our Dempsey Comfort Club membership program helps you stay on top of regular maintenance while getting priority service when you need repairs most.

Age is the biggest factor – if your furnace is over 15 years old and needing frequent repairs, replacement often makes more financial sense. However, many heating problems that seem major are actually affordable fixes. Strange noises, uneven heating, or higher energy bills don’t automatically mean you need a new furnace. A proper diagnostic will tell you whether repair or replacement gives you better value. We’ll walk you through the real costs of both options so you can make the right decision for your situation.
First, check your thermostat settings and make sure it’s set to heat mode. Look at your circuit breaker to see if it’s tripped, and check that your furnace switch is on. If you have an oil furnace, verify you have fuel. If these basics don’t solve the problem, turn off your furnace and call for professional help. Don’t try to restart it multiple times or attempt repairs yourself – this can make the problem worse or create safety hazards. We provide emergency furnace repair service to get your heat restored quickly and safely.
Annual maintenance is essential for keeping your furnace running efficiently and catching problems early. The best time is late summer or early fall, before you need heat regularly. During maintenance, we clean key components, test safety systems, check for wear, and tune up your furnace for optimal performance. Regular maintenance typically prevents about 85% of heating system breakdowns and keeps your energy bills lower. It also maintains your warranty coverage and extends your furnace’s lifespan significantly.
Different noises indicate different problems. Banging or popping sounds often mean your ductwork is expanding and contracting, or you have a delayed ignition issue. Grinding noises usually indicate worn bearings in the blower motor. Whistling suggests airflow problems, often from dirty filters or blocked vents. Clicking during startup is normal, but continuous clicking indicates electrical issues. While some noises are minor, others signal problems that can become expensive if ignored. A professional diagnostic can identify exactly what’s causing the noise and whether it needs immediate attention.
Most common furnace repairs take 1-3 hours to complete once we’ve diagnosed the problem. Simple fixes like replacing a faulty thermostat, cleaning a flame sensor, or changing a worn belt can often be done in under an hour. More complex repairs involving electrical components, gas valves, or heat exchangers may take several hours. If we need to order specific parts for your furnace model, the repair might require a follow-up visit. We’ll give you a realistic timeframe upfront and keep you updated if anything changes during the repair process.
