How Our Furnace Repair Service Works

Inside a gas furnace: the parts our technicians test during a Calgary furnace repair

1. Book Your Service Call

Book online or call (403) 333-3754. When you book during business hours, we can usually send a technician the same day.

2. We Find the Cause

Your technician tests the igniter, flame sensor, pressure switch, motors, controls and venting to find the real problem, not just the symptom.

3. You Approve the Price First

We explain what failed and give you the price before any work begins. No surprise charges.

4. We Repair and Safety-Test

Our trucks carry common furnace parts, so many repairs are finished on the first visit. We then run a full heating cycle and safety check.

Quick Checks Before You Call

Try These Three Things First

Some no-heat calls have a simple fix. Before you book, check that:

  • The thermostat is set to Heat and above room temperature
  • The furnace filter is not clogged
  • The furnace power switch and breaker are on

Still no heat? Book a furnace repair or call (403) 333-3754.

Safety first: if you smell gas or your carbon monoxide alarm sounds, leave the home right away. Call ATCO Gas at 1-800-511-3447 or 911 from outside.

Repair or Replace Your Furnace?

When Replacement Makes More Sense

Most furnace problems can be fixed. Replacement may be the better choice when:

  • Your furnace is over 15 years old
  • A repair would cost a large share of a new furnace
  • You need repairs every winter
  • Your heating bills keep climbing

We show you both options and what each costs, so you can decide. Learn more about furnace installation and replacement in Calgary, with $0 down financing available.

Furnace Repair FAQs

Have a question that isn't answered here? Call (403) 333-3754 or email info@yychvac.com.

When you call during business hours, we can usually schedule a technician the same day in most Calgary areas. Our trucks carry common furnace parts such as igniters, flame sensors and capacitors, so many repairs are completed on the first visit.

This is called short cycling. Common causes are a dirty filter, an overheating limit switch, a dirty flame sensor or a furnace that is too big for the home. Short cycling wears parts out faster, so book a diagnostic if it keeps happening.

Most modern furnaces have a control board with a light that flashes an error code. The pattern points to the fault, such as a pressure switch or ignition problem. Note the pattern and mention it when you book. It helps your technician come prepared.

A bang when the furnace starts often means the burners are lighting late. Squealing, humming or grinding usually points to a blower or inducer motor problem. If the noise is loud or new, turn the furnace off and book a repair.

If your furnace is over 15 years old, or the repair would cost a large share of a new one, replacement may make more sense. We show you both options. See furnace installation and replacement for details.

Watch for no heat, cold air from the vents, uneven heating, new noises or smells, short cycling and rising gas bills. Booking early can stop a small problem from becoming a no-heat call on a cold night.

Yes. We repair all major makes and models, including Lennox, Goodman, Carrier, Armstrong Air, York and Trane.

Change your filter regularly and book a yearly furnace tune-up. Many breakdowns start with a worn igniter, a dirty flame sensor or a weak motor that a tune-up would catch.

First check that the thermostat is set to Heat, not just Fan On, and that the filter is not clogged. If it still blows cold, the burners are likely not lighting, often because of a failed igniter, a dirty flame sensor, a pressure switch fault or a frozen intake or exhaust pipe. These are common Calgary winter repairs we fix on the first visit in most cases.
