Pro Tips: Furnace Repair in Fresno

Before calling a technician, these checks can save time and help you describe the problem accurately.

Test Your CO Detectors

Place carbon monoxide detectors near the furnace and sleeping areas and test them at the start of heating season. Gas furnaces are the leading residential CO source.

Confirm Heat Mode & Filter

Set the thermostat to Heat above room temperature and check the filter — a dirty filter trips the high-limit switch and causes a furnace to short-cycle or blow cool air.

Never Ignore a Gas or Burning Smell

A persistent gas odor or a burning/soot smell can indicate a cracked heat exchanger — a carbon monoxide risk. Shut the furnace off and call for emergency service immediately.

Reset the Breaker Once

No power to the furnace? Check the dedicated breaker and the service switch (it looks like a light switch near the unit). Reset once — repeated trips mean it's time for a pro.
