Furnace Repair and Replacement Austin, Texas

Furnace Repairs

Certified Heating Repair Specialists Ready to Service Your Furnace

Unpredictable weather in Texas means your furnace must be ready for anything.  Furnaces can be some of the most reliable heating systems; however, there isn’t room for error in heating repair, especially in the middle of winter. A furnace’s reliability comes from the combustion process. They get their energy from burning gas as opposed to the air outside. Systems that need outside air only work efficiently in certain conditions. All furnaces need gas to continue operating, no matter how cold outside.

Maintenance keeps your furnace operating at full capacity. It also ensures that someone is watching to ensure your furnace works as well as it should. A heating repair expert can diagnose problems before they have a chance to develop into full-grown issues.  Our trained technicians are skilled at diagnosing any heating problem. We are also certified to repair any heating system you may have.

The four main furnace types are:

  • Natural Gas
  • Oil
  • Electric 
  • Propane 

Gas furnaces are the most common type of furnace. They create heat through a process called combustion. Combustion then vaporizes the fuel until it completely burns off. The vapor can then be released into the air and filtered for us to breathe.

Heating repair should only ever be performed by professionals with the required skills and knowledge. Gas furnaces, especially, pose a high risk to your health.

Known risks of servicing your furnace include:

  • Fire
  • Explosion
  • Toxic gas leaks in the home 

Every heating system has its unique challenges. Before you dive into heating repair, make sure you understand the kind of needs your specific type of furnace has.

Heating Replacement and Installation

Expert Level Furnace Work Done Right the First Time

Replacing your old furnace is no trouble with Green Leaf because we have certifications to install:

  • Complete Heating Systems
  • Standalone Furnaces
  • Outdoor Heating Units
  • Heat Pumps

Furnaces have a life expectancy of 10 – 20 years. While this number can vary in either direction, furnaces that receive maintenance last the longest. Still, that does not mean they are immune to damage. Awareness of these signs will help you catch malfunctioning parts before they cause permanent damage.

You may need heating replacement if your system:

  • Cannot maintain a consistent and comfortable temperature
  • Won’t clear the air of excess dust or humidity
  • Is making strange noises
  • It puts off unusual smells. 

The risk of fire and property damage when replacing your furnace is high. Therefore, you should only attempt furnace repair if you have the skills and knowledge to understand them. Heating replacement is hazardous, especially with gas furnaces.

There are so many reasons that could be causing your furnace to malfunction. Unless you have expert-level knowledge in heating replacement and heat repair, it is best to find a professional. Our heating replacement specialists are happy to inspect your unit and provide recommendations. If we cannot repair your furnace, we will find you a new system that perfectly fits your needs and budget.

If you are having trouble with your furnace, don’t wait for it to fail. Instead, call Green Leaf Heating, Cooling, and Plumbing near Austin and Round Rock, Texas.

Working Repairing Heat Pump

Quality Maintenance That Lowers Heating Repair Costs In Austin, Texas

Green Leaf Maintenance Saves You Money

You should only need to replace your heating unit every 15 to 20 years, depending on what kind of system you have. For example, furnaces are straightforward mechanically, so they last longer on average. Heat pumps, on the other hand, are more complex systems and last between 10 to 15 years.

There are two questions we get most commonly about heating: how do I minimize heating repair costs and how do I avoid a premature heating replacement?

The most critical aspect of keeping heating repair costs low and your system running efficiently is having your heater regularly maintained by an HVAC professional. Maintenance can feel inconvenient at times, but it is essential.

You can think of a heating system like the human body. You do not necessarily have to go to the doctor for your check-ups. However, the benefit of going is having an expert in the human body assure you that everything is working how it is supposed to. Maintaining your heater is a similar concept. Certified HVAC technicians, like the ones at Green Leaf, are experts in all things heating and cooling. They are the watchful eyes that ensure you do not need heating repair in the middle of winter.

It is also similar in that finding an issue during a check-up usually means it has not had time to become a problem. Maintenance does the same. Repairs should not turn into heating replacement. A technician can catch parts that are starting to malfunction before it happens. Every maintenance call from Green Leaf includes a thorough inspection of all the components, chemicals, and wiring.

Well-maintained heating systems do not have to work as hard in the winter to warm your house. Systems run more efficiently when they do not have to work as hard. Efficiency saves you money because your heating system does not have to use as much gas or electricity to conduct heat and push it into your home. This means your energy bills go down. Efficiency also saves you money because heaters that do not have to work as hard need repairs less frequently. The heating repairs that do come up are less severe and require less attention.

Finally, heating systems can only operate for so long under distress. To run correctly, they must be kept clean and the chemicals maintained. Forcing a system to perform with clogged filters and insufficient chemicals will run it into the ground because it simply cannot keep up with the workload.

Green Leaf makes regular maintenance effortless. Our annual maintenance plan includes two service visits per year. The best part is that you can schedule the appointment at a convenient time and forget about it. We will call you before the appointment and remind you that we are coming.

4 Components that Help Heat Your Home Efficiently

Thermostats

Choosing The Right Product for You

Thermostats That Make Your Life Easier

The thermostat acts as the brain of your HVAC system. Your furnace heats the air, but the thermostat tells it what temperature to sustain the air at, when to turn on and off, and how frequently it should run. Thermostats control nearly half of the electricity used by your house. As a result, a thermostat that works inefficiently could cost you hundreds of dollars a year.

Thankfully, Green Leaf makes efficiency easy by offering the best smart thermostat technology. Programmable thermostats like the Ecobee or NEST are our top sellers. These devices work on both forced-air and non-forced air systems as well as both residential and commercial settings.

Smart thermostats will help you save money on electricity because they monitor your energy consumption and can learn your behavior. Just days after installation, it will know your HVAC habits. The NEST will also generate an energy report for you every month, with tips for lowering your energy bills.

You may need to check the thermostat if you’re having problems with your heater, but it is not very old, and you have recently had it serviced. Damage to the thermostat comes in the form of wiring shorting. If the thermostat is malfunctioning, electrical shorts will occur. Shorts in the wire damage the furnace’s sensors, eventually causing the entire system to malfunction.

When there is a problem with the thermostat, there will be signs such as 

  • Fan running constantly
  • Tripping more 
  • Switching on and off more than usual
  • Incorrect thermostat reading 

Be sure you immediately inspect your thermostat if you think there is wire damage. Failure to have it checked will result in a complete furnace malfunction.

Heat Pumps

Comfortability No Matter the Season

 Installation and Repairs In Austin, TX

Heating pumps are more efficient than traditional air conditioners and furnaces. Some units are up to 50x more efficient. Although it is a more expensive investment upfront, the long-term savings of operating a heat pump are much more significant. Heat pumps are heating and cooling systems in one. The diversity is part of what makes them so expensive. It is an added level of efficiency.

A heat pump is different from traditional heaters and HVAC systems. Typically you have a heating system, and you have a cooling system. Heat pumps are heating and cooling systems in one. The diversity is part of what makes them so expensive. It is an added level of efficiency. Every time you turn off one system and start up another, it uses energy. One heat pump that heats and cools will save the extra energy needed to switch systems.

Switching from hot to cold or cold to hot could be useful to someone living in Texas. Anyone from Texas knows that the weather could not be less dependable. Our climate, particularly in the winter, is unpredictable.  One day you’re wearing shorts, and the next, you’re in a snow jacket.  A system that both heats and cools will simplify your life. The one caveat is that, depending on the pump, they begin losing efficiency under 40 degrees Fahrenheit.  While this is not a deal breaker in Texas, it is something to consider.  On the opposite side, as a Texas resident, you will be happy to know that heat pumps do not lose efficiency as the temperature rises.

When it comes to heat pump installation, maintenance, and repairs, think green.  At Green Leaf, we understand the importance of having a heat pump that works when and how it should. Green Leaf can handle any heat pump need you may experience—anything from regular maintenance to heat-pump repair or replacement. Before purchasing a heat pump, you should know how its advantages and disadvantages fit your needs.

Ductwork

A Heating Replacement That Saves You Green

Repair, Maintenance, and Replacement

Air ducts are not likely to come to mind when considering your heating system. However, you may be surprised to know that you could save hundreds of dollars on excessive energy bills with proper ductwork. Our certified technicians are ready to help with any ductwork service need you have: repairs, installation, maintenance, or even heating replacement.

To understand, let’s think about your HVAC system as the human body again.

The ductwork acts like your body’s blood vessels. Your heart works hard to pump out blood, but it would have no way of getting to the rest of the body without the blood vessels. Your furnace and air ducts work the same way. The furnace needs working air ducts to heat your home. Otherwise, the furnace is pumping out hot air with nowhere to go.

Blood vessels carry two types of blood: oxygenated blood and non-oxygenated blood. There would be enormous consequences for these two kinds of blood getting mixed up. Blood vessels keep this from happening by splitting into veins that go to the heart and veins that leave the heart. Air ducts operate the same way. Like blood vessels, they have two kinds of vents. There is a set that carries filtered air from the furnace into the house. The other removes old air from inside and brings it to the furnace. Unfortunately, the air in these two vents mixing would also result in harmful consequences.

Current ductwork will save you money every month on your electricity bill. Up to 30 % of the energy used to create heat gets lost because air escapes in the ducts. For your heater to truly be running as efficiently as possible, it is imperative that you maintain your vents. With Green Leaf Heating Cooling and Plumbing, there is no reason to let your air ducts fall behind. As a part of our 22-point checklist, every maintenance visit we make to your home includes a complete inspection of your ductwork. For most, ductwork is not visible, so it can be challenging for homeowners to diagnose. If you need ductwork, you may experience the following:

  • Excessively hot rooms
  • Clammy air (during warmer months)
  • Random rooms that stay cold
  • Dry air in the winter
  • Unexplained increases in utility costs
  • Dusty air or musty smell in the home
  • Inflamed allergies or asthma irritations

If you have noticed any of these signs, call Texas-owned-operated Green Leaf HVAC and Plumbing. Ducts will begin to deteriorate after 5 to 10 years of use. That is why checking the air ducts frequently is so important in older houses. You shouldn’t be paying to control the temperature of your attic or the outside air.

Attic Insulation

Keep Your Home Efficient With Attic Insulation

Insulation Maintenance

Needing more insulation in your attic can be a problematic heating repair for a homeowner to diagnose. An easy way to know is by trying to find the ceiling joints. If you find them and can see them easily, it is time to add more insulation to your attic. If you are looking for expert heating repair or insulation services, give Green Leaf HVAC and Plumbing a call today.

Insulation is a pivotal factor in maintaining your home’s efficiency. With poor insulation, there is always cold air coming in from outside and warm air escaping before it can warm your house. With adequate insulation, you will have a much easier time controlling your house’s temperature and saving hundreds of dollars annually on electricity.

We use the AttiCat system to ensure your home has the proper insulation. Our technicians will also help you determine which type of material will be best for your attic insulation. We can insulate with the following:

  • Foam
  • Loose Fiberglass
  • Fiberglass Batts (Rolled Insulation)
  • Cellulose

 Keeping your home warm during the bitter winter months can be costly. Green Leaf attic insulation services are the most affordable way to keep your home energy efficient all year round. Our certified technicians will provide upfront pricing and never change it. So even if the work takes longer than expected or we need additional parts, we stick to our original quote.
