A furnace that clicks, hums, then falls silent without heat is failing somewhere in its ignition sequence. On newer systems the usual culprits are a cracked or worn hot surface ignitor, a flame sensor coated in oxide so it cannot prove flame, or a pressure switch that will not close because the flue or condensate line is blocked. On older standing-pilot units, a pilot that lights but will not stay lit usually points to a failing thermocouple or a draft reaching the pilot assembly.

These faults follow a diagnosable order and a professional will work through it rather than replacing parts on guesswork. Repeated ignition lockouts should not be reset over and over, since each attempt puts unburned gas into the chamber. Pro HVAC connects homeowners in Cleveland Heights, OH with HVAC professionals.

Furnace Ignition And Pilot Light Repair FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Furnace Ignition and Pilot Light Repair

Questions we hear most often about Furnace Ignition and Pilot Light Repair in Cleveland Heights, OH.

Talk to a real person
Why is my furnace blowing cold air instead of heat?
A dirty air filter restricts airflow and often causes a furnace to blow cold air. Turn the system off, replace the filter with the correct size, and wait 30 minutes before restarting. Check that the thermostat is set to heat mode and the temperature is higher than room temperature. In Cleveland Heights, OH winters, a clogged filter can lead to frozen coils if ignored. If the problem continues after the filter change, the issue may involve the blower motor or limit switch.
Why won't my thermostat turn the furnace on?
Start by confirming the thermostat has fresh batteries and is set to heat. Remove the cover and check that the wires are secure on the R and W terminals. Use a level to ensure the unit is not tilted, which can prevent the mercury switch from working. In Cleveland Heights, OH winters, a thermostat placed near a drafty window may read the wrong temperature and never call for heat.
Why does the pilot light on my furnace keep going out?
A weak thermocouple or drafts around the burner compartment usually cause the pilot to extinguish. First, ensure the furnace door is fully closed and the area around the unit is free of strong air currents. If the pilot still will not stay lit after relighting per the label instructions, turn the gas valve off and do not attempt further adjustments.
Do I need duct cleaning or duct sealing?
They solve different problems. Cleaning is worth doing when there is visible debris at the registers, evidence of rodents or insects, water damage inside the system, or drywall dust left after renovation work. Sealing is what you need when rooms never reach temperature, bills do not match the equipment, or the furnace runs far longer than it should. A musty smell is usually neither, since it normally starts at the evaporator coil or a standing-water condensate pan. Older Cleveland Heights, OH homes with retrofitted ductwork more often need sealing than cleaning.
Can a dirty air filter really break my heating or cooling system?
Yes, and it is the most common cause of faults that look like equipment failure. A restricted filter makes a furnace overheat and shut down on its limit switch, freezes an air conditioning evaporator coil solid, and makes the blower motor draw high current until it fails early. Two things matter more than brand: the filter must fit its slot tightly, because a loose filter lets air bypass it completely, and a very high MERV rating in a system not designed for it restricts airflow enough to cause the same overheating it was meant to prevent. A filter that darkens within weeks in Cleveland Heights, OH usually means duct leakage is pulling in unfiltered air.
