When the winter hits and the temperature begin to freeze we receive thousands of calls at SoBellas Home Services  It is during the season that our service calls can range from major repairs to simple issues that have a quick fix. We encourage you to read our blogs often so that you may be able to take preventative measures to prevent repairs.

1. No Maintenance: The first and Foremost reason why furnaces have issues are because of a lack of seasonal maintenance. Not maintaining your furnace can also result in costly breakdowns and additionally it also assures that your unit will not be working at optimal levels.We recommend that you select a trained and certified technician to perform your seasonal maintenance. Our customer care club provides our customers with 2 annual inspections along with several discounts that they can take advantage 
2. There is not enough air: If you are not getting enough quality air then this may be because your filters may need to be replaced. Replacing your filters is extremely important because if they are dirty or clogged they will restrict the air that you are able to receive. 
3. The furnace is making a loud noise: When a furnace is making a loud noise that may be indicative of a mechanical malfunction that needs to be checked by a technician. A loud noise could also be indicative of a blower wheel that has stopped working. When this situation occurs it is important to schedule an appointment immediately as this is a major issue.         
4.  Help! My furnace won't turn on: Although this may sound like the worst situation it may actually turn out to be a simple repair. This situation can occur when something is wrong with the thermostat. We recommend checking to see if the batteries are still working. Another thing that you can try is checking the thermostat for debris or dust.       
5. Why are some of my rooms not heating?: This tends to be a common concern that we receive during the winter. We can tell you with confidence that more than likely this is occurring due to your air ducts. It may be possible that you have leaking ducts which could potentially run up your energy bill.
