A technician testing the control board of a furnace in a dim basement utility area.

A furnace that will not light, lights and quits, or blows air that never warms up is the most common reason anyone in Elizabethtown calls us. All three have different causes and all three are usually repairable.

Describe the symptom rather than the part. Working out which component that points at is our job, and it is faster over the phone than you might expect.

What we usually find

A cracked hot surface igniter, a flame sensor fouled enough that the board shuts the gas off within seconds, or a blocked sidewall vent after snow. Further down the list: inducer motors, pressure switches, limit switches tripping on restricted airflow, and blower capacitors.

Heating and cooling around Elizabethtown

Natural gas covers most of south-eastern Pennsylvania, and in Lancaster County that means gas furnaces and gas-fired boilers make up the bulk of what we service. The older housing here still holds a remarkable number of hot water and steam systems feeding cast iron radiators — systems worth maintaining rather than tearing out.

Heat pumps are arriving quickly in newer Elizabethtown construction, and dual-fuel setups pairing a heat pump with a gas furnace suit this climate well.

Short cycling and repeated hard ignition wear out the components that cause them, so a fault left alone in Elizabethtown usually gets more expensive rather than staying the same.

What happens when you call

Every technician working Elizabethtown under the Plumsteadville HVAC Pros name follows the same sequence Frank Reilly used on his own in 2014: find the fault, price it, agree it, fix it.

Elizabethtown sits in Lancaster County, and we cover all of it: the built-up streets near Elizabethtown College and the outlying properties on unmarked lanes alike.

Furnace Repair in Elizabethtown — questions

Do you cover Elizabethtown for furnace repair?

Yes. Elizabethtown in Lancaster County is inside our service area and the 17022 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.

Can you repair an oil furnace in Elizabethtown?

Yes. Nozzle, electrodes, cad cell, pump pressure, filter and draft are standard work for us, not a special order.

Is it safe to keep running a furnace that short cycles?

It is not usually an immediate hazard, but it is wearing out the ignition components and costing you fuel. Worth fixing promptly rather than living with.

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.
