Most Halifax homeowners should have their oil burner serviced once a year, ideally before the heating season starts in fall. This annual service includes cleaning the burner, replacing the oil filter, checking safety controls, and testing the system’s efficiency. If you use your oil heating system heavily or have an older system, you might benefit from service twice a year. Regular maintenance prevents most emergency breakdowns and keeps your system running efficiently, which saves money on heating oil and avoids costly repairs during the coldest months.
Call for oil burner repair immediately if you smell oil, hear unusual noises like grinding or banging, see black smoke from your chimney, or notice your system cycling on and off frequently. Other warning signs include yellow or orange flames instead of blue, soot around the unit, or higher than normal heating bills. Don’t ignore these symptoms – they often indicate safety issues or problems that will get worse and more expensive if left alone. In Halifax’s cold climate, waiting too long for repairs can leave you without heat when you need it most.
A complete oil burner service typically takes 1-2 hours, depending on your system’s condition and any issues we find. This includes cleaning the burner components, replacing filters, checking all safety controls, testing the system operation, and explaining our findings to you. If we discover problems that need immediate attention, the service might take longer, but we’ll discuss this with you before proceeding. We schedule appointments with enough time to do the job properly without rushing, because thorough service prevents future problems and keeps your Halifax home comfortable all winter.
Yes, our technicians work on all major brands and types of oil burners and oil furnaces commonly found in Halifax homes. This includes older systems that other companies might not want to service, as well as newer high-efficiency units. We carry parts for most systems and can usually complete repairs during the same visit. If your system is very old or has been discontinued, we’ll be honest about whether repair makes sense or if replacement would be more cost-effective. Our experience with thousands of Plymouth County oil heating systems means we’ve likely worked on a system just like yours.
Yes, we provide emergency oil burner repair service for Halifax homeowners when their heating systems break down. We understand that oil burner problems don’t wait for convenient times – they often happen during the coldest weather when you need heat most. Our emergency service prioritizes safety first, then getting your system running again as quickly as possible. While emergency calls may cost more than scheduled service, we’re transparent about emergency rates and focus on permanent solutions rather than temporary fixes that might fail again soon.
