Connecticut is famous for its cold and snowy winters. If you live in the Southington or West Hartford area, you know how important it is to be able to rely on your home's heating system.

It's vital to act quickly if you notice even a small hint of a problem. That's where the team at M & M Mechanical comes in. Our knowledgeable and experienced professionals offer comprehensive heating repair solutions for homeowners throughout the region. We want to keep your family safe and comfortable all winter long, prevent plumbing problems and water damage, and help you return to normal as quickly as possible. 

Signs That You Need Heating Repair


 It's important to know the signs of a malfunctioning heating system before your unit stops working entirely. In many cases, acting quickly can mean the difference between a minor repair and a major replacement. Here are some of the signs that it might be time for heating repair services: 
  • Low Air Flow: If the air coming out of your vents seems weaker than normal, it can mean that your heat pump or furnace is losing power. There could also be a problem with your ductwork. Our repair technicians can take a look and diagnose the problem.
  • Dropping Temperature: If your home is rapidly becoming colder, or if you notice your vents blowing cold air when the heat is on, contact our heating repair team immediately. There could be a problem with your thermostat or a different part of your system.
  • Unusual Noises or Smells: As with any major piece of machinery, you should become familiar with the noises that your heating system makes as it operates normally. This can help you quickly identify when anything changes; you might notice an unusual clunking, thumping, or buzzing noise. You might also notice a musty or burning smell, which could indicate a problem. 
  • Rapid Cycling: Your heating system should normally pause for a period of time between cycles. If you notice that it's running constantly or switching between cycles too rapidly, it's time to contact our team to schedule an inspection. 
  • Spike in Energy Bills: In some cases, your first sign of a problem will be your monthly utility bill. If you notice an unexplained spike, or if your bill is significantly higher than it was at the same time last year, it could mean that your heating system is working harder than it should. Our professionals can take a look and provide further information. 
Don't wait for your furnace or heat pump to break down in the middle of a cold winter day. Contact our team today to schedule a repair!

My Heating Unit is Malfunctioning. Can I Do Anything?


If you've noticed that you might need heating repair, there are a number of things you can do before you give us a call. 

  • First, inspect your home's air filter. Dirty air filters can restrict airflow, decrease your unit's efficiency, and result in higher energy bills. If you change your filters and the problem persists, give our team a call. 
  • One of the most common reasons that a heating system will suddenly malfunction is that there is a problem with the thermostat. Check your thermostat. Is your battery updated? 
  • Open up your air vents. Many people believe that they can save on energy bills by shutting off vents to restrict flow to unused rooms. This can lead to failed blower motors, a damaged compressor, a cracked heat exchanger, or mold or mildew in your ductwork.

 

After checking these things, if your furnace is still giving you trouble, give our team a call for heating repair. We'll send someone out right away to help and get the warm air flowing again.
