Signs You Need Heating Repair
Heating problems often start small. These signs are worth a call.
-
Cold air from the vents: The blower runs but the air is not warm. Causes range from a clogged filter to a failed igniter, so a safety check and test find the real cause.
-
Clicking but no flame: The furnace clicks and the blower may start, but the burners do not light. A dirty flame sensor, a weak igniter or a gas valve issue can cause this.
-
A burning dust smell that stays: A light dusty smell on the first cold night is normal. If it lingers for days, dust may be burning on a dirty burner or the heat exchanger may be overheating.
-
A yellow burner flame: A healthy gas flame burns blue. A yellow or orange flame can point to poor combustion and carbon monoxide risk, so shut the furnace off and call a tech.
-
A CO alarm going off: If your carbon monoxide alarm sounds, get everyone outside into fresh air and call 911 from outside. Do not go back in until responders say it is safe.
-
A wall heater that rattles: Old wall heaters in 1960s homes can rattle, hum or smell when parts wear out. Rattles can mean loose parts or a cracked heat exchanger, so have the unit checked before you use it.

Why Heating Problems Are Common in Davis
Davis furnaces sit idle most of the year, then start on a chilly foggy night. Many are older units in garages and hall closets.
Fog season chill
Fog runs November through March, and nights get cold, so heaters run hard after months off.
Gas is the main fuel
Utility gas is the most common home heating fuel in Davis.
Homes from the 1960s and 1970s
About 6,200 Davis homes were built in the 1970s and about 3,400 in the 1960s, and many still have the original style of heater.
Tight spaces
Furnaces in garages and hall closets collect dust and get little airflow.
Wall heaters
Older homes near downtown still use gas wall heaters that are past their life.
Rental homes
About 62 percent of Davis homes are rented, so heaters often go years between checks.
