Frequently Asked Questions
What should I do if my furnace won’t turn on?
If your furnace won’t turn on, start by checking the thermostat settings, ensuring the circuit breaker isn’t tripped, and inspecting the air filter for blockages. If your system still doesn’t start, it’s best to call a professional for heating repair. Davis & Green offers expert furnace repair services in Richmond to quickly diagnose and fix the issue.
How can I improve the efficiency of my heating system?
To maximize your heating system’s efficiency, schedule regular maintenance, replace air filters as needed, seal air leaks around doors and windows, and use a programmable thermostat. If your heating system is struggling to keep your home warm, Davis & Green can provide expert heating repairs and maintenance services in Richmond.
Why is my furnace making loud noises?
Loud noises such as banging, screeching, or rattling can indicate problems like loose components, dirty burners, or a failing blower motor. Ignoring these sounds may lead to bigger repairs. If you hear unusual noises coming from your heating system, contact Davis & Green for a professional heating inspection and repair in Richmond.
How often should I replace my furnace filter?
Furnace filters should typically be replaced every 1-3 months, depending on factors like household dust levels and pet ownership. A clogged filter reduces airflow, forcing your system to work harder and increasing energy costs. Davis & Green offers furnace maintenance services in Richmond to help keep your system running efficiently.
When should I consider replacing my heating system?
If your heating system is more than 15 years old, requires frequent repairs, or is no longer heating your home effectively, it may be time for a replacement. Upgrading to a newer, energy-efficient system can improve comfort and lower utility bills. Davis & Green provides professional furnace replacement services in Richmond to help you find the best option for your home.
