At Piggies Air Conditioning, we provide comprehensive heating repair services designed to diagnose issues accurately, restore warmth quickly, and ensure your system operates safely and efficiently.

Common Heating Problems We Solve

A heating system can fail in many ways, often showing confusing symptoms. At Piggies Air Conditioning, our certified technicians are equipped to handle the full spectrum of heating issues, from minor fixes to complex repairs. We specialize in identifying the root cause of the problem to provide lasting solutions.

Furnace Blowing Cold or Lukewarm Air

One of the most common complaints is a system that runs but fails to produce adequate heat. Causes may include:

1. Dirty air filter restricting airflow
2. Malfunctioning thermostat
3. Pilot light or electronic ignition issues

Our technicians will check each component carefully to restore proper heating.

Strange Noises During Operation

Your system should operate with a steady, low hum. Loud, unusual noises often signal a mechanical problem:

1. Banging or Popping: Dirty burners or expanding ductwork
2. Squealing or Screeching: Worn-out blower motor belt or bearings
3. Rattling or Vibrating: Loose panels, debris, or an imbalanced motor

Ignoring these noises can lead to costly damage if left unaddressed.

Short Cycling (Constantly Turning On and Off)

When your heater runs for a few minutes and shuts off repeatedly, it’s short cycling. This wastes energy and puts stress on components. Common causes include clogged filters, improperly sized units, or thermostat malfunctions.

Pilot Light or Ignition Failure

Gas furnaces may suffer from a pilot light that won’t stay lit or an ignition that fails to spark. Causes include faulty thermocouples, dirty pilot orifices, or gas supply problems. These repairs involve natural gas and should only be handled by trained professionals like those at Piggies Air Conditioning.

Thermostat Malfunctions

Sometimes the issue isn’t with the heating system but with the thermostat itself. Inaccurate calibration, wiring problems, or dead batteries can cause temperature inconsistencies. We recalibrate or replace thermostats to restore control.

Sudden Increase in Utility Bills

If your bills spike without explanation, it may be due to inefficiency from dirty components, duct leaks, or failing parts. Our team pinpoints and resolves the issue to restore efficiency.

Deciding Between Repair and Replacement

Many homeowners wonder whether repair or replacement is the smarter choice. At Piggies Air Conditioning, we help you make an informed decision based on key factors:

1. Age of the System: Furnaces typically last 15–20 years; heat pumps 10–15 years. Older units may be better replaced.
2. Frequency of Repairs: Multiple annual repairs may cost more than investing in a new system.
3. Cost of the Repair: If a repair exceeds 50% of the cost of a new unit, replacement is often the better option.
4. Energy Efficiency: Modern systems are far more efficient, lowering monthly utility bills and paying for themselves over time.
