Fast Furnace & Heating Repair Service

Not every heating issue needs immediate attention, but even minor issues shouldn't be overlooked. What may start as a small problem can quickly snowball into a major headache. We always recommend working with a licensed professional to address performance issues with furnaces, heat pumps and other heating systems.

What are some common signs that you should schedule professional furnace repair? 

• Pilot light problems: If the furnace pilot light won't stay lit or is not burning blue, there may be an issue with the thermocouple or the gas intake valve.
• Clogged or dirty air filters: On average, HVAC air filters should be changed every 90 days. When the filters get clogged with dust and debris, you won't get as much warm air through the vents. Dirty filters can lead to bigger issues like reduced efficiency and poor air quality.
• Thermostat problems: If the furnace or heat pump does not respond when you adjust the temperature, there may be a problem with the thermostat. Make sure the thermostat has working batteries and is set to "heat." If you still don't have heat after changing the batteries and recalibrating, call a professional.
• Uneven heating: A well-maintained furnace or heat pump should have no problem keeping every room at a comfortable, stable temperature. If you notice some rooms are cold while others are warm, it's time to call for a heater repair.
• Frequent cycling: In general, furnaces and heating units run two to three cycles in an hour, with each cycle lasting 10 to 15 minutes. If you notice the unit turns on and off in short bursts or runs for an unusually long time, there may be an internal issue that needs to be repaired.

Furnace & Heating Installation Services

As much as we would love for our heating systems to last forever, there will always come a point when they need to be replaced. While the need for a replacement can be daunting, it can be an opportunity for a major comfort upgrade. SunCoast is here to help you understand your options and make the right decision for your home.

What should you consider before a furnace installation? 

• You may need to decide on a fuel type, depending on the system you choose. Consider the availability, cost and efficiency when choosing between natural gas, propane, oil or electricity.
• Determine your energy efficiency goals and look for an efficiency rating that can help you save on utility costs. Higher ratings indicate better energy efficiency and potential long-term savings.
• Match the size and capacity of your new system to your home's heating demands. An oversized or undersized unit won't be able to heat your home evenly and may increase energy costs.
• Consider your budget and work with professionals to understand the best options. You can also utilize financing options to alleviate upfront heater installation costs.
• Look into additional upgrades to make the most of your heater or furnace replacement. Pairing a new unit with a programmable thermostat is a great way to optimize convenience and energy savings.

No matter which system you choose, professional furnace installation is a must. Ensuring that your new unit is properly secured and tested will maintain your warranty and prevent performance issues.

Heat Pump Repair & Installation

Heat pumps are an energy-efficient way to keep your home comfortable no matter the season. With both heating and cooling capabilities, upgrading to a heat pump provides unmatched comfort and savings. SunCoast knows the ins and outs of heat pumps to provide fast repairs and help you find the right unit for installation.

Some signs it's time to schedule a heat pump repair:

• Inadequate heating or cooling: A well-maintained heat pump should have no problem regulating temperatures. If you notice uneven or inconsistent temperatures across rooms, it's time for a repair.
• Unusual noises: Your heat pump should operate quietly. Call for professional service if you hear grinding, squealing or banging sounds, which may indicate mechanical issues.
• Increased energy bills: Sudden spikes in heating and cooling costs may mean your heat pump is malfunctioning. We recommend scheduling a service to determine the cause.
• Frequent cycling on and off: Heat pumps usually run two to three times per hour. If your heat pump is turning on and off frequently, there my be an issue with the thermostat or the unit itself.
• Reduced airflow: There should be sufficient airflow through the vents to keep every room comfortable. If the airflow is weak, the filters may be clogged or the blower could be failing.

Benefits of heat pump installation:

• Energy efficiency: Heat pumps are highly energy-efficient, providing low operational costs compared to traditional heating and cooling systems.
• Environmentally friendly: Heat pumps generate fewer greenhouse gas emissions compared to other heating methods, promoting a greener home.
• Year-round comfort: With the ability to both heat and cool your home, heat pumps offer a versatile solution for consistent temperatures no matter the weather.
• Quiet operation: Heat pumps operate quietly, providing a comfortable living environment without disruptive noise.
• Low maintenance: Because heat pumps use the same components for both heating and cooling, they are one of the easiest HVAC systems to maintain.
