Keeping Your Home Healthy & Comfortable
Keller residents have experienced some cold winters in recent years, including some severe winter storms and extreme low temperatures. Unpredictable, potentially extreme weather makes it even more important to have an efficient and reliable heating system. If you want to maintain your home's comfort and livability during the colder months, you need to invest in a heating solution that works for you.
If you're content with your heating solution and just require maintenance or repairs, Tom's Mechanical is just a call away. If you need recommendations for an upgrade or replacement, we can provide expert advice and give you multiple options so you can make the best choice for your home.
Some furnace issues are minor, but others can become health hazards if left unchecked. Consult with an expert if you notice any of these problems arise.
If you notice a clanging sound when your furnace turns on, you may be dealing with delayed ignition. If you have a natural gas furnace working at its optimal efficiency, it should start up immediately. Delayed ignition can cause gas buildup within the furnace, and if it ignites, it may cause a small explosion which is incredibly dangerous.
It is difficult to diagnose a broken heat exchanger without an inspection performed by a professional technician. The heat exchanger is what prevents the air that you breathe in the home from mixing with the gasses used to ignite your furnace. If you begin to have headaches or notice cracks in your furnace, you should strongly consider calling a heating repair technician to take a closer look at the issue.
A lack of hot air coming out of the furnace may be caused by a minor issue, but if it's not resolved quickly, your home may become extremely uncomfortable. If you’ve checked your thermostat and furnace and everything seems to be normal, it’s probably time to call an HVAC professional to run some diagnostic tests on your heating system.
Tarrant County is fairly far north for east Texas, which means we don’t have the benefit of close proximity to the Gulf of Mexico and the temperature regulation it offers.
Our community is particularly vulnerable to extreme changes in weather. Furnaces are often the most highly recommended heating solution because they are the quickest way to heat your home, and they're also incredibly energy efficient. Homes with natural gas connections can enjoy low rates on thorough, fast and consistent heating during the cold winter months in Keller.
Furnaces should last anywhere from 15 to 20 years with proper maintenance, making them a great value to those looking for a cost-effective heating appliance.
Newer furnaces also have improved design and construction compared to older gas and electric heating systems. Updated features allow them to greatly reduce gas loss during the ignition phase. They are often equipped with draft inducers to drastically increase unit efficiency, meaning you require less natural gas to maintain the same heating level in your home.
Some furnaces even have electronic ignition with a sealed combustion chamber. This is a much safer solution for Tarrant County residents, and it is also a great way to save additional energy.
Many warning signs that your furnace is malfunctioning should not be ignored because they can become extremely hazardous. Signs that may indicate the need for furnace repairs include:
Some furnace repairs are more expensive than others. Every homeowner must make their own decision on whether to pay for a repair or replacement, but there’s usually a unit age/repair cost threshold that can help you decide which is right for you.
You can trust our experienced technicians to help you understand the variables and inform you of your options. We will give you unbiased recommendations so that you can make the best choice for your situation and maintain the most value.
While issues with these components should all be dealt with promptly, they rarely justify total furnace replacement. If your furnace is still under warranty and new parts can easily be found for repairs, there's likely no need to replace the entire unit.
Furnace malfunctions can be unexpected, but with Tom's Mechanical, you don't have to worry. We operate 24/7, providing emergency heater repair services to Keller residents. You're only a phone call away from having your issue solved and getting your home back to its ideal temperature.
We'll take care of everything and ensure all issues are put to rest.
