Everything Your Heating System Needs

Our furnace repair covers the full range of heating problems Duxbury homeowners face. Ignition issues, blower motor failures, thermostat problems, ductwork issues—we handle what breaks and what wears out over time.

We service all major furnace types common in Plymouth County. Oil systems that need burner work, gas furnaces with heat exchanger concerns, and older units that require hard-to-find parts. Each repair includes safety checks because heating equipment demands respect.

Regular maintenance prevents most emergency calls. Our Dempsey Comfort Club members get priority scheduling and system tune-ups that catch small problems before they become expensive ones. It’s the difference between planned maintenance and midnight emergency calls.

How quickly can you respond to a furnace emergency in Duxbury?

We prioritize emergency heating calls, especially during cold weather when families need heat immediately. Most emergency calls in Duxbury get same-day response, often within a few hours depending on the situation and time of day. We understand that losing heat in a Massachusetts winter isn’t something you can wait days to fix. Our technicians carry common repair parts and diagnostic equipment to handle most furnace problems on the first visit. For Dempsey Comfort Club members, emergency calls get even faster priority response because we know their systems and service history.

Do you repair both oil and gas furnaces?

Yes, we service both oil and gas heating systems throughout Plymouth County. Many Duxbury homes still rely on oil heat, while others have converted to natural gas or propane systems. Our technicians are trained on both fuel types and understand the specific maintenance and repair needs each system requires. Oil furnaces need different skills than gas systems—from burner adjustments to fuel line issues to tank concerns. Gas furnaces have their requirements around safety, venting, and combustion. We carry parts and tools for both, so we can handle whatever type of furnace keeps your home warm.

What are the most common furnace problems you see in this area?

In Plymouth County, we see several furnace issues repeatedly due to our coastal climate and seasonal demands. Ignition problems top the list—pilot lights that won’t stay lit, electronic ignition failures, and burner issues, especially after long periods without use. Blower motor problems come next, often from overwork during extended cold snaps. Thermostat issues cause uneven heating, and ductwork problems create hot and cold spots throughout homes. Oil furnaces here commonly need burner cleaning and fuel line attention, while gas systems often have venting concerns. Salt air affects some components faster than inland areas, so we check those connections carefully during every service call.

Should I repair my old furnace or replace it entirely?

The decision depends on your furnace’s age, condition, and repair history. Generally, if your system is over 15 years old and needs major component replacement, investing in a new furnace makes more financial sense. We look at the cost of repair versus remaining system life, your recent heating bills, and how often you’ve needed service calls. A furnace that breaks down repeatedly costs more than predictable monthly payments on efficient new equipment. However, newer systems with isolated problems often benefit from targeted repairs. We’ll give you a fair assessment of both options with actual numbers so you can choose what’s best for your family and budget.

How often should I have my furnace serviced for maintenance?

Annual furnace maintenance is essential in New England, ideally scheduled before heating season begins in early fall. This timing catches problems while the weather is still mild and parts are readily available. During maintenance, we clean components, check safety systems, test efficiency, and identify parts that might fail during heavy winter use. Oil furnaces often benefit from additional attention mid-season due to fuel quality and burner demands. Gas systems need annual safety inspections and combustion testing. Regular maintenance typically prevents 80% of emergency breakdowns and keeps your system running efficiently, which directly impacts your heating bills throughout the winter months.

What should I do if my furnace stops working completely?

First, check your thermostat settings and make sure it’s calling for heat. Verify your circuit breaker hasn’t tripped and that your furnace power switch is on—it looks like a light switch usually located near the unit. For oil furnaces, check if your emergency fuel switch was accidentally turned off. If these basics don’t restore heat, call us immediately rather than attempting further troubleshooting. Modern furnaces have safety systems that shut down operation when problems are detected, and overriding these systems can create dangerous conditions. We’ll walk you through safe temporary measures over the phone while dispatching a technician to restore your heat properly and safely.
