Thermostat malfunctions represent another significant category of furnace problems we regularly address. Modern programmable and smart thermostats can develop communication issues with your heating system, causing erratic temperature control or preventing the furnace from responding to temperature changes. Our technicians carry advanced diagnostic equipment to quickly identify whether the problem lies with the thermostat itself, the wiring connections, or the furnace control board. We pride ourselves on finding solutions that restore your comfort quickly, which is why we maintain a 24-hour response time for emergency situations.
Professional Diagnostic Process
When you call PHI Heat & Air for furnace repair, our certified technicians follow a comprehensive diagnostic protocol that ensures we identify not just the immediate problem but any underlying issues that could cause future breakdowns. We begin with a thorough visual inspection of your entire heating system, checking for obvious signs of wear, damage, or improper installation by previous mechanical contractors. This includes examining the condition of your heat exchanger for cracks or corrosion, inspecting the blower motor and belt tension, and evaluating the integrity of all electrical connections.
Our diagnostic process continues with performance testing using specialized instruments that measure gas pressure, electrical amperage, temperature rise across the heat exchanger, and carbon monoxide levels. These measurements tell us exactly how your furnace is performing compared to manufacturer specifications for your American Standard, Lennox, or other brand equipment. We really like to communicate our findings clearly, explaining what we’ve discovered and how it affects your system’s operation. This transparent approach helps build the relationship with our clients that sets us apart from other service providers in Gainesville, Lindsay, Whitesboro, Valley View, & Muenster, TX.
