Emergency Heating Repair
When your heating system breaks down, it’s important to get emergency HVAC service to get it back up and running.
Waiting too long to repair your heating system can cause more problems and worsen existing ones, which can even lead to premature heating replacement.
Signs of a heating Emergency:
- No heat
- Fuel leaks
- Limited airflow
- Smoke from the unit
- Strange smells or noises
- Frequently tripped breakers

Common Causes of Heating Problems
Many heating units have similar problems that arise over time. Canady’s is familiar with the common heating issues of each system, so we can quickly identify the best solution.
We do our best to help homeowners make educated decisions about their HVAC services, and knowing frequent problems makes it easier.
- Gas furnaces: Common problems with gas furnaces include damaged blower motors, pilot light problems, and carbon monoxide buildup.
- Heat pumps: Heat pumps tend to have low refrigerant, broken starter capacitors, or tripped float switches.
- Ductless mini-splits: Common mini-split problems include frozen coils, clogged condensate lines, and refrigerant leaks.
If your heating system has repeat issues and is between 15 to 20 years old, it could be time for a heating replacement. Not all issues can be repaired, and a new system could be a better investment.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I troubleshoot my heating system?
- Ensure the thermostat is set to heat with the fan on auto
- Change the air filter
- Ensure supply and return vents aren’t blocked
- Reset the circuit breaker for electric-powered systems
- Relight the pilot light for gas-powered systems
If these solutions don’t resolve the issue, you’ll need to call an HVAC technician to diagnose your system.
Why is my heating system making a weird sound?
Aside from the sound of blowing air, you might have a problem if you can hear your heating system. Some common sounds you might hear include:
- Popping or banging: This could indicate dirty burners or excessive gas inside the chambers.
- Squealing noises: This sound can be caused by belts or lack of lubricant in the shaft bearing.
- Clicking noises: Clicking is usually associated with the ignition or heat exchanger and could indicate an electrical problem, worn motor bearings, or broken pilot light.
What is my heating system giving off a weird smell?
Your heating system shouldn’t have an odor. If it does, it’s time for repairs. Some common heating smells include:
- Burning odors: This could be dust burning off after turning it on for the first time. If it lasts longer than a day, call a technician.
- Rotten egg odors: This could indicate a natural gas leak in your home. Evacuate your home immediately and call your utility company and emergency HVAC technician.
