Signs your gas ducted heating system needs servicing or repairs

You should have your system maintained at least once a year. However, certain signs may indicate it’s time for more urgent maintenance or repairs. These can include:

  • Strange smells: Consistent, strong and unusual smells may be a sign of something wrong with your system. If your system is producing these kinds of smells, contact our team.
  • Inconsistent airflow: If warm air isn’t reaching certain rooms, your system may need maintenance.
  • Unusual noises: Sounds like banging, rattling, whistling, or screeching can indicate a problem with your system.
  • Pilot light or thermostat issues: If your pilot light isn’t a steady blue flame, and your thermostat doesn’t appear to be working, there’s likely an issue with your system.
  • Sudden gas bill increases: A sudden increase in your gas bills could indicate gas flow issues, ineffective components or general wear and tear on an ageing system. Our technicians will examine your system and can detect the cause of your excess gas bills.
  • Frequent system cycling: A heating system that turns itself on and off at regular intervals could indicate a serious problem. This may be due to filter clogging, faulty components, or a system setup that’s too big or small for your home.

If your system is showing these signs, book a service or repairs today.
