Installation & replacementQuestions about our heating services
What's the difference between a furnace and a heat pump?
A furnace makes heat by burning gas or warming electric coils. A heat pump doesn't make heat. It moves heat from the outside air into your home, like a fridge working in reverse. That's why heat pumps use less energy.
Which heating system is best for my home?
It depends on your home's size, age and the fuel you have. Many Utah homes use a gas furnace. Some add a heat pump to save energy. We'll look at your home and explain your choices in plain words.
Do you work on commercial heating systems?
Yes. We repair and maintain commercial boilers and heating systems for offices, shops and other buildings.
How do I know if I need a tune-up?
If it's been more than a year, it's time. Fall is the best time, before the cold hits. A tune-up helps your system run safely and use less energy.
How does central heating work?
Central heating means one main system warms your whole home. It makes heat in one spot, then sends it to every room.
Heat is made in one place
A furnace, heat pump or boiler creates the heat. Most Northern Utah homes use a gas furnace.
It travels to every room
Ducts carry warm air to your vents. With a boiler, pipes carry hot water to radiators or floors.
Your thermostat is the boss
It tells the system when to turn on and off, so your home stays at the temperature you pick.

Questions about central heating
What does AFUE mean on a furnace?
AFUE shows how much of your fuel turns into heat. A 95% AFUE furnace turns 95 cents of every gas dollar into heat. The rest goes out the vent. Higher numbers save more, especially during long Utah winters.
What usually makes central heating stop working?
Dirty filters, a bad thermostat, worn parts that light the flame and blocked vents are the most common causes. A yearly tune-up catches most of these early.
How can I make my heating system more efficient?
Change your filter often, seal drafts around windows and doors, use a programmable or smart thermostat, and get a tune-up every year.
Does my heating system affect the air I breathe?
Yes. Your system moves air through your whole home. A clean filter and well-kept ducts help keep dust and allergens down.
Is your heat acting up?
Here are the problems we see most. Try the quick checks first. If they don't work, give us a call.
Furnace blowing cold air
Make sure your thermostat says Heat and the fan says Auto. Then check the filter. Still cold? The part that lights the flame may need a fix.
No heat at all
Check the thermostat batteries, the furnace power switch and your breaker box. If everything is on and nothing happens, call us.
Strange noises
Banging, squealing or rattling means something is loose or worn out. Turn it off and get it checked before a small fix turns into a big one.
Some rooms too cold
Open every vent and change the filter. If some rooms still stay cold, your ducts may be leaking or your system may be the wrong size.
Heating bills going up
If your bill jumps and the weather hasn't changed, your system is working too hard. A tune-up or repair can bring it back down.
Turns on and off a lot
This is called short cycling, and it wears out parts fast. A dirty filter is the easy cause. A bad sensor or wrong-size furnace can also do it.
Smell gas? Leave your home right away. Don't flip light switches or touch the thermostat. Once you're outside, call your gas company or 911.
Questions about heating problems
Is it safe to keep using a furnace that's making noise?
It's best not to. Loud bangs or burning smells can mean a safety problem. Turn the system off at the thermostat and call a technician.
How often should I change my furnace filter?
Check it every month in winter. Most basic filters need changing every 1 to 3 months. A clogged filter is one of the top reasons a furnace stops working.
What should I do if I smell gas?
Get everyone out of the house right away. Don't flip switches or use your phone inside. Once you're outside, call your gas company or 911.
Why does my furnace keep shutting off?
The most common reason is a dirty filter. It makes the furnace too hot, so it shuts off to stay safe. A dirty flame sensor is another cause. If a new filter doesn't fix it, call us.
What happens when you call us?
You'll always know what's going on. Here's how a heating repair works, step by step.
You reach out
Call or send a request. Tell us what's going on so your technician comes ready.
We find the problem
Your technician checks the thermostat, the flame, the airflow and the safety parts.
We explain your options
You'll hear what's wrong in plain words, and whether fixing or replacing makes more sense.
We fix it and test it
Once you say yes, we make the repair. Then we run your system to make sure it heats safely.
Questions about service calls
What details should I have ready when I call?
Your address, the kind of system you have if you know it, and what's going on. Is it blowing cold air? Making noise? Not turning on? Every detail helps.
Will I have to approve the work first?
Yes. We explain what we found and your options before any repair starts. You decide what happens next.
What should I do before the technician arrives?
Clear a path to your furnace or boiler. Jot down what you noticed, like sounds, smells or when it started. That helps us find the problem faster.
How long does a heating repair take?
Many repairs are done in one visit. If a part needs to be ordered, we'll tell you how long it should take.
Should you repair or replace your furnace?
Most furnaces last 15 to 20 years. Here's a simple way to tell which choice fits you.
A repair usually makes sense when
- Your furnace is under 10 to 12 years old
- This is the first big problem in a while
- The fix costs much less than a new one
- Your heating bills look normal
It may be time to replace when
- Your furnace is 15 years or older
- It keeps breaking down
- Some rooms never get warm
- Your bills go up every winter
Questions about furnace replacement
How long does a furnace last?
Most last about 15 to 20 years. Yearly tune-ups help yours reach the high end of that range.
Is a high-efficiency furnace worth it?
Often, yes, in a cold place like Northern Utah. These furnaces turn more of your gas into heat, so less of your money goes out the vent. We'll help you compare.
What size furnace do I need?
It depends on your home's size, insulation, windows and more. A furnace that's too big or too small wastes energy and wears out faster. We figure out the right size for your home.
How long does it take to put in a new furnace?
It depends on your home and the system you pick. We'll let you know what to expect before any work begins.
