When to Call an Emergency Heating Technician

Some heating issues can wait for a scheduled appointment. Others should be handled immediately.

Call Right Away If You Have:

Common Heating Problems We See in North Jersey

Furnace Short-Cycling During Cold Snaps

During extended winter cold, aging or undersized furnaces often begin short-cycling, struggling to maintain temperature, or triggering ignition and pressure switch problems.

Boiler Problems in Older Homes

Steam and hot-water boilers are common in Hackensack, Paterson, Passaic, Clifton, and other older North Jersey communities. Common issues include failed circulators, leaking sections, aging gas valves, and pressure problems.

Oil-to-Gas Conversions in Pre-War Homes

Many older homes still rely on oil heat. Converting to natural gas can lower fuel costs, eliminate tank concerns, and open the door to higher-efficiency heating equipment.

Heat Pump Performance Issues

Improperly sized heat pumps, poor backup heat settings, and defrost cycle problems can reduce comfort and increase electric usage during shoulder seasons and cold snaps.

Cracked Heat Exchangers in Older Furnaces

Furnaces over 15 years old should be inspected regularly for heat exchanger cracks, combustion problems, and carbon monoxide risks.
