Furnaces, Heat Pumps & Thermostats
Start With the System That's Acting Up
Most homes around Monroe heat with a gas furnace, a heat pump, or both working together as a dual-fuel system — and every one of them takes its orders from the thermostat. A heating repair visit checks all three, so the fix lands on the real cause.
Heat pump problems
Electric heat pumps and dual-fuel systems.
- Ice on the outdoor unit that won't clear
- Aux or emergency heat running most of the time
- Lukewarm air and electric bills that keep climbing
Thermostat problems
Standard, programmable, and smart thermostats.
- A blank screen, or no response to new settings
- Set to heat, but the system never starts
- A new smart thermostat that won't run the system right
Heat Pump Repair
Heat Pump Repair for Ohio Winters
A heat pump moves heat instead of burning fuel, so it behaves differently from a furnace — and some of what worries homeowners in January is completely normal. The comparison below shows what's expected and what's worth a call.
Many local homes pair a heat pump with a gas furnace. On those dual-fuel systems we also check the switchover setting, because when it's set wrong the system burns more gas or electricity than it needs to.
Normal in Cold Weather
- Air at the vents feels warm rather than hot — roughly 85 to 100°F, compared with 120°F or more from a gas furnace
- Light frost on the outdoor coil, then a short defrost cycle that sends up a puff of steam
- Long, steady run times on the coldest days of the year
Time to Call Us
- Thick ice that stays on the coil after a defrost cycle
- “Aux” or “Emergency heat” showing most of the time when it isn't bitterly cold
- Cold air in heat mode, or an outdoor fan that isn't spinning
- A tripped breaker, or a unit that hums but won't start
Thermostat Repair
When the Problem Is the Thermostat
A surprising number of no-heat calls start here. Before you call, make sure it's set to Heat, a few degrees above room temperature, with fresh batteries. If that doesn't do it, these are the thermostat problems we fix most often:
- Blank or flickering screens — from dead batteries and tripped breakers to a failed transformer at the furnace
- Smart thermostats that drop out — often a missing common (C) wire, which leaves Wi-Fi models rebooting or losing their schedule
- Short cycling from a bad location — a thermostat near a supply vent, a sunny window or the kitchen shuts the heat off too soon
- Heat pump settings after a DIY swap — the wrong reversing-valve or aux heat setting can make a new thermostat blow cold air
Upgrading instead? We install programmable and smart thermostats and set them up to match your furnace or heat pump.

Heating Repair Questions
Yes. We repair gas furnaces, heat pumps, and the thermostats that run them, in Monroe and nearby communities. Many local homes pair a heat pump with a gas furnace, and we service both halves of that dual-fuel system on the same visit.
Some of that is normal. Air from a heat pump usually comes out around 85 to 100°F, while a gas furnace runs 120°F or hotter, so the vents feel cooler even when everything is working. If the air feels cool for long stretches, the outdoor unit is iced over, or Aux heat is on most of the time, schedule a repair.
Yes, within limits. In cold, damp weather the outdoor coil frosts over and the system runs a short defrost cycle, which can send up a puff of steam. Thick ice that doesn't clear after a defrost cycle, or an outdoor fan that won't spin, points to a problem.
Make sure it's set to Heat and a few degrees above room temperature, replace the batteries, and check the breaker and the power switch near the furnace or air handler. If the screen is blank or the system still won't start, call us — it may be the wiring, a failed control, or the thermostat itself.
Same-day service is available most days, and morning calls get the first open slots. Call us, and we'll confirm availability and provide an estimated arrival window. For no-heat emergencies, emergency service is available 24/7.
It depends on what failed and the equipment you have. Your technician diagnoses the problem first and gives you the price in writing before any work starts, so there are no surprises. Comfort Club members save on repairs.
