Response times depend on the season and current demand, but we prioritize emergency calls, especially during cold weather when furnace breakdowns leave families without heat. During peak winter months, we work to respond to emergency calls within a few hours when possible. For non-emergency repairs, same-day or next-day service is typically available. The best approach is to call as soon as you notice problems rather than waiting for a complete breakdown, which gives you more scheduling flexibility and often prevents emergency situations altogether.
Yes, our technicians are experienced with both oil and gas furnace systems commonly found in Norfolk County homes. This includes older oil furnaces that many New England homes still rely on, as well as newer high-efficiency gas systems. Each type of system has different components, maintenance needs, and common problems, so having technicians who understand both means you get accurate diagnosis and proper repairs regardless of what type of heating system you have. We carry parts and tools for both systems to handle most repairs during the initial service call.
First, check your thermostat to make sure it’s set to heat and the temperature is set higher than the current room temperature. Check your circuit breaker to see if it’s tripped, and make sure your furnace power switch is on. For oil furnaces, check if you have fuel. If these basics don’t solve the problem, call for professional service rather than trying to fix it yourself. Furnace systems involve gas lines, electrical components, and other elements that can be dangerous to work on without proper training. Document any unusual sounds, smells, or other symptoms to help our technician understand what happened.
Furnace repair costs vary significantly depending on what’s wrong and what parts are needed. Simple fixes like replacing a thermostat or cleaning a sensor cost much less than major component replacements like a heat exchanger or blower motor. The age and type of your furnace also affects cost, since parts for older systems can be more expensive or harder to find. We provide upfront pricing before starting any work, so you’ll know exactly what the repair will cost before committing. This transparency helps you make informed decisions about whether to repair or replace your system.
There are a few simple maintenance tasks homeowners can handle safely, like changing air filters regularly and keeping the area around the furnace clean and unobstructed. However, most furnace maintenance requires professional knowledge and tools. Annual professional maintenance is important for both safety and efficiency, especially for oil furnaces which need regular cleaning and adjustment. Professional maintenance catches small problems before they become expensive repairs and ensures your system operates safely. We offer maintenance services through our Dempsey Comfort Club to help customers stay on top of regular furnace care.
Call for professional service if your furnace makes unusual noises like banging, scraping, or squealing sounds that weren’t there before. Strange smells, especially gas odors or burning smells, need immediate attention. If your furnace cycles on and off frequently, doesn’t heat evenly throughout your home, or your energy bills suddenly increase without explanation, these indicate problems that need professional diagnosis. Yellow flames in gas furnaces instead of blue flames, or soot around oil furnaces, are also signs of problems. Don’t ignore these warning signs, as small problems often become expensive repairs if left untreated.
