Heating and furnace repair in Los Angeles
Los Angeles furnaces sit idle for eight months and then are expected to work on the first cold night. Igniters, flame sensors, pressure switches and limit switches are the usual culprits — quick repairs when the technician carries the parts.
Gas furnaces
A furnace that clicks but does not light has a failed hot-surface igniter or a dirty flame sensor. One that lights and shuts off in seconds has a flame sensor or a pressure switch problem. One that runs but blows cold has a blower or a limit switch fault. We test the heat exchanger and check combustion on every furnace call.
Heat pumps and wall furnaces
Heat pumps that do not heat may have a reversing valve, defrost board or refrigerant issue. Wall furnaces and floor furnaces common in older LA homes use thermocouples and pilot assemblies that we service and replace.
What the technician checks
- Igniter, flame sensor and gas valve
- Pressure switch and inducer motor
- Limit switches and rollout switches

- Reversing valve and defrost cycle on heat pumps
Price and warranty
The service call is $69 and is applied to the repair when you go ahead. After the diagnosis you get the price for parts and labor up front, and nothing is done until you approve it. Every repair carries a 90-day warranty on parts and labor; sealed-system repairs on refrigeration and HVAC carry 6 months; HVAC installations carry 1 year. Seniors and military — mention it when you book.
Questions about heating & furnace repair
The furnace starts, then shuts off after a few seconds.
Classic flame-sensor symptom — the sensor is dirty or failed and the board shuts the gas off for safety. A cleaning or replacement fixes it.
Is it safe to keep using a furnace that smells?
A dusty smell on first use is normal. A gas or burning-plastic smell is not — turn it off and call.
Do you replace old wall furnaces?
Yes, with a like-for-like unit or a ductless mini-split where that makes more sense.
