What Is Considered a Heating Emergency Requiring Immediate Repair?

A heating emergency is any gas or carbon monoxide concern, total loss of heat in extreme cold, electrical burning smells, overheating parts, or loud banging/screeching from the furnace. If you smell gas or a CO alarm sounds, shut off the furnace, evacuate, and call for help. Blower motor failure, failed ignition, frozen coils or refrigerant issues on heat pumps, and thermostat or electrical failures also qualify. Our Glendale Heights team is available 24/7 to dispatch a certified HVAC technician with a stocked truck.
