That structured, long-form training is what makes our workforce so capable on complex heating systems.

We install Lennox systems and service all major brands, including Carrier, Daikin, Goodman, Honeywell, Trane, and Bryant, so you won’t hear us say we can’t help because of what’s in your equipment room. Every visit starts with a thorough inspection before any recommendation is made, and we don’t suggest more than your system actually requires. For urgent situations, we offer 24/7 emergency service with competitive pricing and flexible scheduling.

Signs Your Heating System Needs Professional Maintenance

Some warning signs are easy to miss until a system fails mid-winter.

Watch for these four indicators that it’s time to call for preventive maintenance:

• Rising energy bills: Dirty or worn components force your system to run longer to reach the same temperature, driving up monthly costs without delivering more heat.
• Unusual noises or odors: Banging, rattling, or squealing often points to dust buildup, a loose component, or mechanical wear. Odd smells can signal wiring issues or debris in the system.
• Uneven heating: Hot and cold spots throughout the home frequently trace back to airflow problems: a clogged filter, a struggling blower motor, or worn internal components.
• Frequent short cycling: When the system switches on and off in rapid bursts, it’s working harder than it should. Left unchecked, short cycling accelerates component wear.

What a Heating Maintenance Visit Includes

A heating tune-up from H.J. Faust, Inc. is a methodical, top-to-bottom service call. Our technicians work through every critical component before running a full heating cycle to confirm the system is operating correctly.

Here’s what every visit covers:

• System inspection: Internal components and wiring are examined for wear, corrosion, and damage.
• Cleaning: Burners, the flame sensor, blower motor, and both indoor and outdoor coils are cleaned of buildup that reduces efficiency.
• Lubrication: All moving parts, including motors and bearings, are lubricated to reduce friction and extend service life.
• Filter check: The air filter is inspected and replaced on the spot if a replacement filter is available, or the correct type and size is noted for the homeowner.
• Condensate drain: On high-efficiency furnaces and heat pumps, the condensate drain line is checked for blockages and cleared as needed.
• Thermostat calibration: The thermostat is tested for accuracy and calibrated so temperatures match what’s set.
• Electrical connections: All electrical connections are inspected and tightened.
• Safety controls: The high-limit switch and pressure switches are tested to confirm they’re functioning correctly.
• Combustion analysis: On gas-fired systems, gas pressure is measured and a combustion analysis is performed to verify a clean, efficient, and safe burn.
• Performance test: A full heating cycle is run after the tune-up to confirm the system starts, runs, and shuts down as it should.

Heating Systems We Maintain in Burlington

We service all makes and models of residential heating equipment, tailoring maintenance to how each system works and what it needs.

Furnaces

Gas furnace maintenance includes cleaning burners and sensors and checking the heat exchanger for cracks. This is a critical step since a cracked heat exchanger can allow carbon monoxide to enter living spaces. Electric furnace maintenance focuses on heating elements and electrical connections.

Heat Pumps

Heat pumps run year-round, providing both heating and cooling, which is why biannual maintenance makes sense for this system type. A fall heating check-up and a spring cooling check-up both cover coil cleaning, refrigerant level verification, and reversing valve testing.

Boilers

Boiler maintenance covers water pressure checks, pressure relief valve testing, expansion tank inspection, burner cleaning, and bleeding radiators on hydronic systems to remove trapped air that reduces heat output.

Ductless Mini-Splits

Mini-split maintenance involves deep cleaning of the indoor air handler filter, evaporator coil, and blower wheel, plus inspection of the outdoor condenser unit and refrigerant lines.

Annual Maintenance Agreement Benefits

A one-time tune-up helps. An Annual Maintenance Agreement protects you all year. Our program includes both a furnace check-up and an air conditioner check-up, so both systems get professional attention at the right time: one fall visit for heating and one spring visit for cooling. HVAC systems tend to fail during the coldest and hottest days of the year, exactly when service wait times are longest. Agreement members move to the front of the line with priority scheduling, and after-hours emergency calls carry no overtime charges.

Every maintenance visit under the agreement includes a thorough 30-point inspection. When repairs are needed, agreement members receive a 10% discount on all parts and labor. Remote monitoring services are also available for applicable systems. For Burlington homeowners who want predictable costs and faster service when it matters most, the Annual Maintenance Agreement delivers both.
