What’s Wrong With My Furnace? Here Are the Most Common Issues We Fix
Not sure what’s going on? Here are some of the most frequent furnace problems we see throughout Great Falls during heating season:
Furnace blowing cold air
Could be a clogged filter, thermostat issue, or failed igniter
No heat at all
Often a safety switch, tripped breaker, or motor failure
Strange noises
Banging, squealing, or rattling may signal mechanical wear
Short-cycling
System turns on and off too frequently—can point to airflow or sensor issues
Pilot light problems
For older units, pilot light failures are a common reason for no heat
Thermostat malfunction
Sometimes the issue is with the controls, not the furnace itself
We also troubleshoot related components like ductwork and thermostats. If we find the issue is with your smart thermostat or zoning system, we’ll let you know and help you fix it. Visit our Thermostat Installation & Controls page for more on those solutions.
