If you live in Melrose<\/strong> and you\u2019re having problems with your HVAC system, there\u2019s a good chance you\u2019re wondering who to call. You\u2019re probably got too many choices, and at first glance they can be tough to sort out.<\/p>\n

Should you contact that guy in a van whose logo you remember? How about that company you read about somewhere? Maybe the one a friend might have recommended, or the one with some really good<\/p>\n

Yelp and Google reviews?<\/h2>\n

Sorting it out can be a bit of a hassle, but there\u2019s actually a simple solution\u2014call 128 Plumbing<\/strong>.
\nWhy? Because we\u2019re the best in the business when it comes to HVAC repairs, and we have expert HVAC techs<\/strong>, electricians and plumbers who can solve any problem in or related to your system.<\/p>\n

We also know what some of the most common repairs are, so let\u2019s take a brief tour through those and explain what the fixes are.<\/p>\n

1 Improper Maintenance<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019ve neglected to do regular maintenance on your HVAC system<\/strong>, don\u2019t feel bad\u2014you\u2019re not alone. It happens to the best of us, and it might actually be the most common problem our HVAC techs encounter.<\/p>\n

One reason you shouldn\u2019t feel bad is that the fixes are often simple and easy. If you haven\u2019t had regular inspections done on your system in a while, the solution to your problem can be as basic as cleaning your burners, air filters and air ducts.<\/p>\n

Once we do that work for you, your system will work much better, and you\u2019ll likely save some money on your energy bills, too.<\/p>\n

2 Dirty or Clogged Air Filters<\/h3>\n

Air filters<\/strong> may seem like an ancillary element of your HVAC system, but they\u2019re important. If they\u2019re dirty, your furnace will have trouble circulating clean air, and if they become clogged they can actually cause a furnace breakdown.<\/p>\n

But dirt isn\u2019t the only potential problem. Some people compromise their HVAC system by using the wrong filters, which is definitely an easy fix.<\/p>\n

Other issues can compromise filters, too. Pet hair is a common one, and the quality of the air in your neighborhood can be part of the problem as well.<\/p>\n

We have the experience to evaluate all these issues, whether it\u2019s simple filter replacement or a more involved fix. We\u2019ll get your HVAC system working the way it\u2019s supposed to, and we\u2019ll do it without disrupting your daily schedule if the repair is basic enough.<\/p>\n

3 Mechanical Wear and Tear<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s common for people to ignore the advancing age of their HVAC system, especially if it\u2019s been operating reliably for a long time.<\/p>\n

As these systems age, though, they sometimes malfunction from overuse, especially given the severity of New England winters.<\/p>\n

We can diagnose any wear and tear-related issues<\/strong> and make the appropriate recommendations, whether it\u2019s simple maintenance and repair or a replacement that will heat your home more effectively and save you money in the long run.<\/p>\n

4 Broken Thermostat<\/h3>\n

One of the most common problems our HVAC techs encounter is a broken thermostat<\/strong>, so it\u2019s usually one of the first things we check when we go out on a call.<\/p>\n

Sometimes the issue may be with the thermostat itself, but there are other possibilities. A faulty fan, for instance, can wreak havoc with your heating system and make it difficult to deliver the thermostat setting you\u2019ve chosen.<\/p>\n

5 Ignition Control Issues and Pilot Light Problems<\/h3>\n

These two devices basically perform the same function. In a gas heater, the pilot light makes it possible for the furnace to provide heat, while the ignition control<\/strong> performs this function in many other kinds of heating systems. If you have problems with either one, call us and we\u2019ll get you up and running again.<\/p>\n

6 No Heat<\/h3>\n

This is a common problem, but the issues causing it tend to run the gamut. They may be related to lack of maintenance, a thermostat problem or something in your system as a whole, so it\u2019s important to get the problem diagnosed correctly.<\/p>\n

7 Insufficient Heating<\/h3>\n

This problem also comes with several possible solutions. Clogged filters<\/strong> can be a common fix, but many people don\u2019t realize that their heaters are actually too small to service the space they\u2019re trying to heat. Either way, we can tell you what\u2019s going on and get you warm and cozy again.<\/p>\n

8 Furnace Cycle Issues<\/h3>\n

We may not be consciously aware of the cycles of our furnace<\/strong>, but we are used to the background noise they produce. We know how long it takes for them to come on once we\u2019ve upped the thermostat setting, and we know the noise they typically produce at the end of a cycle.<\/p>\n

If these cycle noises change without warning, though, it\u2019s a good sign that your furnace needs help. The possibilities include thermostat issues, a clogged filter that\u2019s leading to air flow issues, or a problem in the furnace itself.<\/p>\n

9 Furnace Noises<\/h3>\n

These tend to be easier to identify. They\u2019re usually very different from typical furnace noises<\/strong>\u2014think squealing to a loud clanging, while may be due to a bad belt or bearings that are worn out.<\/p>\n

The diagnosis is usually simple, but it does take a high level of expertise to figure out the problem, so make sure you call us right away to prevent a furnace failure.<\/p>\n

10 Blower Problems<\/h3>\n

Your blower<\/strong> does yeoman work as part of your HVAC system, but if it\u2019s running constantly it may be working too hard.<\/p>\n

This can be due to a broken limit switch that\u2019s not functioning properly, and there are other possibilities as well. It\u2019s important to get the problem fixed, so make sure you call us right away.<\/p>\n
