Common faults in Altamont

Lights then quits — flame sensor. Will not light at all — igniter, or a vent blocked by snow or a nest. On and off every few minutes — restricted airflow tripping the high limit. Screeching on start-up — blower motor bearings.

Heating and cooling around Altamont

Schuylkill County runs on a genuine mix: natural gas where the main reaches, oil and propane where it does not. In Altamont that means a technician has to be equally comfortable with a cad cell and a flame sensor.

This is also anthracite country, and a handful of properties still have the chimney and flue arrangements of much older heating systems, which affects how modern equipment vents.

A furnace left broken through a Altamont cold snap puts water lines at risk, and a burst pipe costs several times the repair. That is the reason we answer overnight rather than taking messages.

Furnace Repair in Altamont — questions

Do you cover Altamont for furnace repair?

Yes. Altamont in Schuylkill County is inside our service area and the 17931 postal area is worked by the nearest crew. Call (215) 484-0300 at any hour, including nights, weekends and holidays.

Why does my furnace light then shut off after a few seconds?

Almost always a dirty or failing flame sensor. The furnace cannot confirm a flame, so it closes the gas valve as a safety response. It is one of the least expensive furnace repairs there is.

My furnace stopped right after heavy snow. Related?

Very likely. High-efficiency furnaces vent through plastic pipe out a sidewall, and snow or ice over that termination stops the furnace firing. Clearing it is often the entire repair.

How often should I change the filter?

Check a one-inch filter monthly and change it every one to three months. More furnace failures trace back to a neglected filter than to any other single cause.
