We use the 50% rule: if repair costs exceed 50% of replacement value AND your system is 12+ years old, replacement usually makes more sense. We'll explain all options honestly. - What energy efficiency ratings should I look for?
For AC units, look for SEER 16+ (highest efficiency is SEER 25+). For furnaces, 95+ AFUE for maximum efficiency. We'll help you balance efficiency with budget and payback period. - Can you work on systems another company installed?
Absolutely. We service and repair HVAC systems regardless of who installed them. Many customers switch to us after poor experiences with other contractors. - Why won't my furnace ignite?
Common causes include failed igniter, flame sensor issues, gas supply problems, or pressure switch faults. High-efficiency furnaces can also have condensate drain blockages. - Why does my furnace blow cold air?
This usually indicates a failed igniter, gas valve issue, or flame sensor problem. The blower runs but the burners don't ignite. - Is a yellow furnace flame dangerous?
Yes. A yellow or flickering flame indicates incomplete combustion and potential carbon monoxide risk. Turn off the furnace and call immediately. - Why does my furnace keep shutting off?
Short cycling can be caused by dirty filters, closed vents, oversized equipment, or malfunctioning limit switches. This should be diagnosed by a professional. - How long does it take to schedule furnace repair in Oak Lawn?
