It would be so lovely if your furnace could say to you, “I’m not feeling well. Could you please schedule a repair for me?” Unfortunately, your furnace can’t talk. However, it does have some ways of expressing itself. One of the clearest indicators that it’s time to schedule furnace repair is when your furnace makes unusual sounds. While they’re not words, they can tell you a lot about what’s going on. Here are some of the noises you should listen for and what they might hint at in terms of what’s going wrong with your furnace.
We’ve talked recently on this blog about the need for annual furnace maintenance as well as some warning signs that your furnace needs prompt repair.

Ahhh, fall. There might not be many more very hot days that require air conditioning left this season. It will soon be time to have your furnace serviced, trade your screens for storm windows, and keep the air conditioner off completely for months. But perhaps you have a nagging concern about that air conditioner. Maybe it’s making an odd noise, cycling on and off too rapidly, or not giving you quite as much cool air as it used to. Considering the season, it might be tempting to put off repairs until next spring.
