It’s never a good thing when your furnace breaks down and needs to be repaired. This doesn’t always mean it’s an emergency, though. There are some signs it’s worth it to call an HVAC company to send someone out on an emergency basis.
Loud Noises Coming From Furnace
If you hear loud banging or other strange noises, consider it an emergency. This likely means there’s a part that’s loose or is damaged. Not taking care of the problem right away can cause major damage to your furnace and can even mean it has to be replaced.
Electrical Problems
Electrical problems can be dangerous as they can deliver a life-threatening shock or start a fire. Signs of electrical issues include the breaker tripping or flickering lights when you turn the furnace on. Other signs include hearing electrical buzzing and humming.

Furnace Leaks
A high-efficiency gas furnace can leak water when something breaks inside it. This can result in major water mitigation and renovation bills. It’s best to get this situation resolved immediately, so it doesn’t cause further damage.
Furnace Is Blowing Cold Air
This can be an emergency if it’s freezing outside when your furnace blows cold instead of warm air. You’ll want to have this problem taking care of quickly for the safety of your family and home.
Furnace Failure
When your furnace completely fails, it won’t do anything when you try to start it. Just like when it’s blowing cold air, call an HVAC company that offers 24/7 emergency furnace repairs.
