Frequently Asked Questions

How fast can you get out for furnace repair in Petaluma?

Same-day in most cases across Petaluma and the 94952/94954, especially on frost-advisory nights when no-heat calls spike. We’re licensed (CA #501853), and one technician handles the diagnosis and the fix.

What does furnace repair in Petaluma typically cost?

Most repairs fall in the few-hundred-dollar range for common parts like igniters, flame sensors, or capacitors, and we quote the exact price before any work begins. If a repair won’t hold or the heat exchanger is cracked, we’ll show you the evidence and lay out replacement honestly.

When should I replace my furnace instead of repairing it?

Once a furnace passes 15 to 20 years, short-cycles, or fails a heat-exchanger safety check, replacement usually beats another repair, common in Petaluma’s older east-side tract homes still on original equipment. We size and install high-efficiency furnace replacements that lower your PG&E heating costs.

Do you handle furnace installation for Petaluma’s older Victorian and bungalow homes?

Yes. Petaluma heating in older west-side and downtown homes often means working with retrofitted or undersized ductwork, and we install gas, hydronic, and direct-vent systems matched to the home, not just swapped one-for-one.

What type of furnace is best for a Petaluma home?

The best type of heating installation will depend on the size of your home and your specific heating needs. One of our technicians can come out and analyze your home to help decide which option will be best.

Why is my furnace blowing cold air?

This happens because of clogged filters, problems with or incorrect thermostat settings, or ignition failure.

Why is my furnace making a banging or rattling noise?

Banging or rattling can happen in a heater installation because of parts that have broken loose in the unit or problems with the blower motor. Heating repair may be needed.

Why does my furnace smell like it’s burning?

If it only happens breifly, it could be from dust burn off that happens when you first turn the furnace on. It could also be because of an overheated motor or a gas issue if you smell burning plastic or rotten eggs, which are serious hazards.

Why is my furnace running constantly?

Dirty air filters can cause this, as well as a thermostat that is set too high or a limit switch that gets stuck.
