If you could look at the readings, you would see most failures coming months ahead. A capacitor measuring 8 percent under its rating in spring is the one that fails in the first heat wave. A system losing charge through a pinhole leak keeps running, weaker each week, until the coil freezes solid. A furnace flame sensor fouls slowly and then shuts the furnace down on a frigid night. Maintenance is built around this reality for Morristown, TN homeowners: find the problem while it is a trend, and fix it on a calm weekday rather than as a crisis.
The repairs homeowners call us about most are AC Repair and Furnace Repair. If something has stopped working, start there.

- A failure last year that seemed to come out of nowhere
- New noises when the equipment starts up
- Higher heating and cooling costs with no clear explanation
- A newer unit with warranty terms that call for regular professional service
- Filters you cannot remember changing, or a musty smell when the blower starts
- It has been more than a year since anyone opened the equipment
