Common Signs of Furnace Issues
Recognizing the early signs of furnace problems can save you from unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs. Here are some common indicators that your furnace may need attention:
- Unusual Noises: Banging, rattling, or squealing sounds can signal mechanical issues or loose components.
- Inconsistent Heating: If some rooms are warmer than others, your furnace might be struggling to distribute heat evenly.
- Frequent Cycling: A furnace that turns on and off frequently could be experiencing thermostat issues or airflow problems.
- High Energy Bills: A sudden spike in your energy bills may indicate that your furnace is working harder than it should to heat your home.
- Yellow Pilot Light: A pilot light that is yellow instead of blue can be a sign of a ventilation problem or carbon monoxide presence.
- Poor Air Quality: Excess dust, dry air, or an increase in allergy symptoms can point to issues with your furnace or ductwork.
- Age of the Furnace: Furnaces typically last 15-20 years. If yours is within this range, it might be time for a replacement or major repairs.
Benefits of Regular Furnace Maintenance
Regular furnace maintenance is essential for ensuring your heating system operates efficiently and reliably. Here are some key benefits of scheduling routine maintenance:
- Improved Efficiency: Regular tune-ups help your furnace run more efficiently, reducing energy consumption and lowering your utility bills.
- Extended Lifespan: Routine maintenance can extend the life of your furnace by addressing minor issues before they become major problems.
- Enhanced Safety: Regular inspections can identify potential safety hazards, such as gas leaks or carbon monoxide emissions, ensuring your home remains safe.
- Better Air Quality: Maintenance includes cleaning and replacing filters, which helps improve indoor air quality by reducing dust and allergens.
- Consistent Heating: A well-maintained furnace provides more consistent and reliable heating, keeping your home comfortable throughout the winter.
- Reduced Repairs: Preventative maintenance can reduce the likelihood of unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs.

Kevin and Angel did a great job with the duct cleaning and explaining everything and making sure I knew how to keep it well maintained. In an industry filled with scam-artists it's nice to know there are honest people out there
I spent a few days looking for air duct cleaning near me and I was fortunate enough to find Duct Professor Heating & Cooling. They have an extensive number of HVAC services, but I only needed air duct cleaning. They offered me a package that included dryer vent cleaning and sent over a couple of techs to my home in Wheeling, on the same day. The technicians were knowledgeable, very courteous and efficient. They worked fast and even applied disinfectant. Compared to other vent cleaning services, the prices were very affordable as well.
I called Duct Professor for a quote since our HVAC system was 20 years old and was not functioning properly. The owner scheduled an appointment with me via email and arrived on time. He thoroughly inspected both the A/C unit and furnace and advised to replace both. After discussing and explaining the types of units and payment options, we decided to proceed with the installation of the new units. A team of 3 people arrived the following week on time and completed the removal and the installation of the units that we selected. After installation finished, the service leader explained us how the units function, recommended maintenance and what needs to be monitored. Overall, excellent service and professional company. The team delivered a very high standard service with high quality products.
Absolutely 11/10 work. My newly purchased home previously had a cigar smoker and these guys worked all day to clean the ducts and sanitize them. Serious, proper duct work. They don’t cut corners. They even found a large carbon monoxide risk with the heat exchanger. Thanks again!!
Absolutely the best! The team that came to my Mom's home were so kind, so helpful and extremely patient. I cannot thank them enough. They worked so hard the entire time they were there. We were lucky enough to have the owner's son on said team who explained the entire duct system to me with such enthusiasm, it completely blew me away. They both showed such pride in their work. Again, the kindness they showed just proved to me that I had made the right decision when choosing them. I would recommend the Duct Professor to everyone.
I was having issues with our air conditioning and we called for a seasonal servicing. After hours of effort trying to get the system to function properly, it was determined that a new system was needed. We were warned last year during our appointment that this was likely. From there, they were able to complete a 1 day install just two days later. The guys did a great job and the system has been working great since.
I would highly recommend them for any heating, Ac, and furnace work. I had four different companies come out to give me an estimate, they gave me the best price, and product. They are professional, they cleanup after themselves, and they make sure everything is working before heading out. After seeing their work I had them come out to our non-profit to also install a new system there.
Duct Professor did an amazing job fixing my AC! They were prompt, professional, and very thorough in diagnosing the issue. The technician explained everything clearly, and the repairs were done quickly. My AC is now working perfectly. Highly recommend Duct Professor for any HVAC needs!
The service was outstanding. They showed up an hour ahead of schedule and had a crazy obstacle to get outside the window about 30 feet down. They thought outside of the box and were able to clean the dryer vent without any issues. Not only did they do a risky project, but this was the only service in Chicagoland area that went out of their way to make it happen. I could not thank the team enough and HIGHLY recommend them to anyone in the area. Extremely friendly, great service, and an amazing rate. Thank you!

How often do my filters have to be changed?
The level of dust and dirt varies from household to household. Factors that affect the amount of dust in your home include do you have pets? How old are your windows? These factors affect how often you should change your filter. Check your filter regularly to determine if it needs to be replaced. However a good rule of thumb is to change your filter once a month.
What size furnace or AC do I need?
The answer to this question is, “it depends.” Factors that influence the size of your furnace/ac are: what kind of insulation do you have? What material are the walls? If your system is too large it will be humid in your home. If your system is too small it will consistently run causing the lifespan of the unit to go down and energy consumption to go up. A qualified HVAC technician can help determine the proper size unit for you.
Should I replace my ac and furnace at the same time?
The right answer is yes! Furnaces and ACs are manufactured to work together in tandem. If you just replace one of the units it will still work but you will have reduced performance and efficiency.
How often should I get maintenance on my furnace and AC?
You should get maintenance on your furnace every fall, right before you turn it on. You should get maintenance on your air conditioner every spring, right before you turn it on. Your systems did their job last year, make sure that they do their job this year.
Should I repair or replace my furnace or air conditioner?
This is a great question! However the right answer is, “it depends.” If your system is newer and the parts that need to be replaced are still under warranty then it makes sense to repair it. If your system is 15+ years old it might not make sense to invest into a sinking ship. Newer systems are much more energy efficient than their predecessors and can pay you back on the savings you will receive on your energy bills.

Alex and his team did great work installing a new water heater and AC coil/compressor. It was a tight fit. They had to knock through three layers of brick for ventilation. The compressor was mounted on the side of my building. They replaced and fixed it all, leaving my house spotless.
