FAQs
What counts as a heating emergency?
A heating situation is an emergency when it poses a safety risk, when vulnerable people are in the home without heat in freezing conditions, or when the system has failed and cannot be restored without professional repair. The clearest emergency scenarios are a total loss of heat during cold weather, any smell of gas near a furnace or boiler, a carbon monoxide alarm activating, a boiler that is actively leaking, or a furnace making severe mechanical noises and shutting down.
Why is my heater blowing cold air?
A heater that runs but blows cold air is almost always a sign that something is preventing the burner from firing and producing heat, or that the system is overheating and has triggered a safety shutoff. Common causes include an ignition problem, a clogged air filter that has restricted airflow, a malfunctioning thermostat sending incorrect signals to the system, a tripped high-limit switch, or an issue with the gas supply. The system is moving air but failing to produce heat. This is not a problem that will resolve on its own.
How fast can emergency heating repair happen?
Response time depends on your location and how many calls are active at the time, but Boss Plumbing & Heating maintains 5 trucks specifically to make sure we can respond to emergency boiler repair and furnace repair calls as quickly as possible. When you call, our team will give you an honest estimate of how soon a technician can reach you for no-heat repairs.
Is it safe to run my heating system if something seems wrong?
It depends on what’s wrong. When in doubt, the answer is no. If you smell gas near your furnace or boiler, shut the system off immediately, leave the home, and call from outside. If your carbon monoxide detector has activated, treat it the same way. If your boiler is leaking or your furnace is making mechanical noises, shut the system down and call our emergency line.
