A furnace that goes unused for months collects dust, and small problems go unnoticed until the first cold night. That’s when a burning smell, a furnace that won’t light or heat that never comes on shows up.
Many Florida homes don’t have a gas furnace at all. They heat with an electric furnace, heat strips in the air handler, or a heat pump. We work on all of them, and we’ll tell you which one you have.
The system runs, but the house never really warms up.
A little dust burning off is normal. A smell that lingers is not.
Short cycling wears out parts and wastes energy.
New noises usually mean a part is failing.
Heat strips running too much can double a winter bill.
Leave the house and call 911 first. Then call us.
A gas furnace that isn’t working right can do more than leave you cold. Cracked parts, blocked vents or poor combustion can put carbon monoxide into your home.
We’re BPI certified and trained in combustion safety. We don’t just get your furnace running. We make sure it’s running safely.
If you smell gas or your carbon monoxide alarm goes off, leave the house first and call your gas company or 911. Then call us.
Your furnace shares the same blower, air handler and ductwork as your air conditioner. An airflow or ductwork problem affects both, in winter and in summer.
That makes a furnace repair a good time to catch the problems that are also costing you in the summer: hot rooms, high humidity and high bills.

Not just the part that failed, but why it failed.
In plain language, with the price, before any work begins.
The right parts, installed the right way, so the same problem doesn’t come back.
We check that your furnace is heating properly and running safely before we leave.
When a furnace is old, unsafe or costing more to repair than it’s worth, it’s time to replace it. We design the replacement with Manual J and Manual S, so it heats your home evenly without wasting energy. In many Central Florida homes, a heat pump is the better choice, and we’ll show you why with your home’s numbers.
A light burning smell the first time you run it each season is usually dust burning off. If it lasts more than a short while, or smells like burning plastic or wires, turn it off and call us.
Leave the house right away, don’t flip any switches, and call your gas company or 911 from outside. Once it’s safe, call us.
Yes. Many Florida homes heat with electric heat strips in the air handler or with a heat pump. We repair all of them, and we’ll tell you which one you have.
Often it’s electric heat strips running more than they should, usually because a heat pump isn’t working right or the system isn’t set up correctly. We’ll find out why.
It depends on its age, its condition and whether it can run safely. We’ll give you an honest answer, and if a repair makes sense, that’s what we’ll recommend.
Yes. We repair and service all major brands and models.
