Heating Repair FAQs
Every furnace manufacturer advises having an experienced technician perform annual maintenance. Additionally, their warranties contain language stating that any damage to the unit brought on by poor maintenance will not be covered. So have your furnace inspected and tuned-up every fall before the air gets too cold.
The most frequent cause of furnace issues is dirty filters. Airflow is impeded by dust and dirt, and if the filter becomes overly clogged, the heat exchanger overheats, shuts off prematurely, and your house doesn't warm up. Replace the filter if the blower is running but no heat is coming out. Additionally, a clogged filter contributes to soot accumulation on the heat exchanger, decreasing the furnace's efficiency and shortening its lifespan.
When your furnace turns off, you may hear a loud rattling sound. This is likely the metal parts of your furnace cooling. You should contact a professional though because it could be something more serious. If there is a clanging sound, the pipes are most likely the source of the issue rather than the furnace. When the furnace is turned off and the pipes cool down, this might be the result of the pipes contracting.
A pinging or popping noise is probably coming from one of the ducts and is not particularly concerning. If your furnace is making an odd whining or vibrating noise, a technician should definitely come and take a look. When it gets cold outside, the furnace's burners may start to hum loudly. By reducing the burner flame with the off/pilot/on control, you can get rid of this noise.
If your heating system stops working during California’s colder months, follow these steps:
- Check the thermostat to ensure it’s set to "heat" and has fresh batteries.
- Inspect the circuit breaker to see if it has tripped, cutting power to the system.
- Examine air filters for clogs that may block airflow and reduce heating efficiency.
- Look for any error codes on the system display panel.
- If issues persist, contact a licensed technician to diagnose and repair the problem promptly.
What Do I Do If My Furnace Goes Out?
If your furnace goes out, the first thing to do is check your thermostat. If it is set to “emergency heat” or “off,” then turn it back on. If it is set to “heat,” check your breaker box to see if the breaker for your furnace has tripped. If it has, flip the breaker back on. If your furnace still does not turn on, contact a professional for heating repair services.

Common Heating System Problems
There are a few common problems that can occur with heating systems you can fix yourself:
Clogged Air Filter - The most common issue we see is a clogged air filter. A clogged air filter will cause your furnace to work harder to circulate air and can eventually lead to system failure.
Pilot Light - Another common problem is a pilot light that has gone out. If your pilot light goes out, you will need to relight it according to the instructions in your furnace’s manual.
If you are having any other problems with your furnace or heater, contact Klaus & Sons for heating repair services.
