| Component | Common Fault | Our Approach |
|---|---|---|
| Hot Surface Igniter | Cracked or burned out — furnace attempts to light but no flame | Test resistance, replace with OEM-compatible igniter, verify ignition sequence |
| Flame Sensor | Carbon buildup causes false "no flame" reading — furnace locks out | Clean with steel wool, test microamp reading, replace if worn |
| Gas Valve | Valve not opening — no gas to burner | Test valve voltage and gas pressure, replace valve if failed |
| Heat Exchanger | Cracks cause CO to enter the airstream — major safety hazard | Visual and combustion analysis inspection; replacement recommended if cracked |
| Blower Motor | Overheating, seized bearings, or capacitor failure | Test amp draw, check capacitor, replace motor or bearings as needed |
| Draft Inducer | Failure triggers pressure switch lockout — no combustion air | Test motor and pressure switch, replace inducer or switch |
| Control Board | Flash codes indicate specific fault; board may not sequence correctly | Diagnose error code, test board outputs, replace if board is at fault |
| Limit Switch | Trips due to overheating — often caused by restricted airflow | Identify root cause (usually filter or blower), reset or replace switch |
Share your furnace model, symptoms, and urgency. Note any error codes or flash patterns on the control board.
Our Red Seal gas fitter arrives with your system's likely parts, diagnostic tools, and the knowledge to work efficiently.
We check the full system — not just the presenting fault. You get a written quote before any work begins.
Approved work completed and tested under load. We walk you through what was done and what to monitor going forward.
We do not carry pre-written repair scripts. Every furnace has its own service history, installation quirks, and environmental factors. Our technicians are trained to diagnose the root cause — not just reset the fault and leave.

"I can't recommend James enough. He took on an extremely difficult job with our home's heating system. Most other plumbers flat out refused the job. James turned a nightmare into a perfectly functioning system."

"After 12 years of having James maintain, repair and install anything for our gas, heating and plumbing needs, I continue to highly recommend him. Professional, incredibly thorough, educates us every step."
