Living in a city where temperatures often reach 77°F in June, yet drop below 12°F in December, can put considerable strain on our HVAC systems. These fluctuations mean that Afton residents experience some pretty unique issues when it comes to heating, as opposed to, say, Texas, or Florida, where temperatures remain pretty constant all year round. Fortunately, at Hurlburt, management of freezing temperatures and extreme heat has been our specialty since 1959, so trust us to keep your furnace running effectively through Afton’s cold winter months. There’s no need to wait until your furnace or heat pump completely stops working to invest in repairs – call Hurlburt now and we’ll send out a team ASAP to replace blocked air filters or look for faulty blower components. Check out our full range of HVAC and plumbing services today to see how we can keep your home cozy through Stillwater’s often unforgiving weather conditions.

Our Stillwater Furnace Repair Services

Faulty wiring, power surges, broken blower components, or general wear and tear are some of the most common causes of malfunctioning furnaces. With more than 60 years of experience in keeping Afton residents warm, our furnace repair experts at Hurlburt rarely come across an issue that they haven’t seen before, so we’re equipped to fix any furnace problem.

Some of the main furnace repair services that we offer include, but aren’t limited to, the following:

Changing Filters: Living in a wooded area along the St. Croix River certainly has its perks, but leaves and twigs can quickly create blockages within your heating system. We’ll replace the air filters within your furnace every one or two months to ensure consistent heat flow throughout all indoor spaces.
Unblocking Ductwork: Pollen, dirt, grease, and hair can also clog the metal or synthetic tubes that transport air from the furnace into your home. Ductwork generally requires replacing every 10 years, but we may simply need to clean or repair the joints and seals.
Fixing Faulty Components: Anything from faulty wiring to electrical system failures can cause your furnace to start an unnecessary heating cycle, particularly if it has detected the wrong temperature. Limit switches stop overheating by switching the blower fan on, but if broken, the furnace remains running. Immediate repairs are therefore essential for lowering the risk of fires and complete system damage.
Replacing the Starting Mechanism: Pilot lights and electrical ignitions keep your furnace powered up, so when they fail, the system will stop turning on. Our HVAC experts can repair or replace either of these mechanisms to help maintain constant temperatures throughout your Afton home this winter season.

How Do I Know If My Furnace Needs Repairing?

Unusually cold draughts in the living room or sudden energy bill increases both suggest that there could be something seriously wrong with your heating system. However, there are sometimes a series of smaller signs that indicate a malfunctioning furnace, which can often be harder to spot.

Ignoring these small, yet serious warning signs, such as a burning smell, will simply make the problem worse, resulting in more expensive repairs in the future. Yellow pilot lights also indicate a potential carbon monoxide leak, so putting off repairs can be incredibly dangerous for your family’s health too.

Contact Hurlburt’s trusted furnace repair technicians straight away if you notice any of the following signs:

Rattling or creaking sounds
Insufficient airflow
Burning smells
Energy bill increases
Frequent cycling (switching on and off)
The furnace won’t turn on
Little or no heat produced

For furnaces that have reached the end of their 15 to 20-year lifespan or require frequent repairs costing over $1,500, we may recommend a complete system replacement. At Hurlburt, our engineers are qualified to work with a range of leading furnace brands, including York, Lennox, Trane, Bryant, and American Standard, so check out our furnace installation services for a fully customized solution for your home.

Why Should I Invest in Regular Furnace Maintenance?

Many modern furnaces have 15 to 20-year lifespans, meaning they can warm your Stillwater home when temperatures dip below 10°F during the winter. Unfortunately, however, even reliable heating systems encounter unexpected malfunctions, such as cold air blowing or insufficient airflow.

Returning home from a wintery walk around Afton Town Square Park or a stroll along the St. Croix River to a freezing home is far from ideal, which is why we’d recommend investing in regular furnace maintenance checkups. Booking one service appointment before Afton’s winter snowfall hits in October and another as temperatures begin to rise again ensures that we can keep your furnace in full working order all year round.

Not only do these checkups help to maintain a warming living space, but they can also stop small repairs, including blocked ductwork, from progressing into larger problems like damaged heat exchangers, which are much more expensive to fix. Issues such as insufficient airflow may turn out to require only a few quick, simple fixes, so don’t delay scheduling your maintenance appointment today.
