Signs Your Heating Unit Needs Attention

Is your heating system not performing as it should? Pay close attention to these warning signs that indicate you may need professional heating service:

Sure, your heating unit might make noise as it kicks on. But, if you hear loud bangs, squeals, or rattling sounds, then you should call the professionals at Wisler.

Do you notice some rooms are noticeably colder than others? If you’re experiencing uneven heating, your system might have issues that need to be addressed by a professional.

A sudden spike in heating costs that has no explanation could mean your system isn’t efficient. This could be due to a number of reasons – old age being one of them. Call us if you notice an unexplained increase in your energy costs!

Nothing is more inconvenient than your heater not warming up your home during a cold winter night. If your home isn’t reaching your desired temperature, it’s time for a check-up!

A burning smell coming from your heating system is a serious concern and should be addressed immediately. Additionally, a musty or damp smell can signal a buildup of mold or bacteria within the system.

Heating systems typically have a lifespan of 15 to 20 years. However, this depends on the type of equipment you have and how well maintained it is. If your system is nearing this age, though, it’s more likely to experience breakdowns and require frequent repairs. It might be more cost-effective to consider a replacement.

Heating FAQ

Furnace replacement cost varies by home and system. Wisler confirms final pricing only after an in-home assessment — so you receive a fixed-price written proposal before any work begins.

Key factors that shape total cost include:

  • Equipment type and efficiency rating (gas furnace vs. other heat sources)
  • Proper sizing from a load calculation — not the old unit's nameplate
  • Duct, flue, or gas-line adjustments needed to meet code
  • Installation access and add-ons like thermostats or IAQ upgrades

If your heat exchanger is cracked or you're facing repeated breakdowns, replacement is usually the safer long-term choice. Financing options are available. We replace furnaces across the Roanoke Valley, including Salem.

Heating installation pricing varies by home and system. A technician needs to assess the right furnace or heat pump size, existing ductwork, ventilation and exhaust needs, and code requirements before providing a firm quote.

Quick factors that affect cost:

  • Equipment type and efficiency rating
  • Ductwork changes or sealing
  • Venting, gas and electrical work, and thermostat upgrades
  • Access, permits, and inspection requirements

Financing and flexible payment options are available for major replacements. We handle full installations across Roanoke, Rocky Mount, Salem, and nearby areas.

There is no one-size price for a 2,000 sq ft home. Final cost depends on the furnace type, efficiency rating, and the work required in your specific home. We provide upfront pricing after an in-home assessment and can offer same-day estimates.

What affects the price:

  • Fuel type and efficiency rating (AFUE)
  • Ductwork or venting changes
  • Thermostat, zoning, and code upgrades

Financing is available through GoodLeap, including some 0% no-interest options. We install and replace heating systems across Roanoke and Martinsville.

A complete Wisler furnace replacement includes:

  • In-home assessment with upfront written pricing
  • Removal and haul-away of the old unit
  • Installation of a new energy-efficient furnace
  • Connection to existing ductwork
  • System startup with testing and safety checks
  • Thermostat options and setup
  • Full jobsite cleanup

Our NATE-certified technicians arrive in fully stocked vehicles and provide 24/7 emergency support. Financing through GoodLeap is available, including some 0% offers. Service available across Roanoke and Rocky Mount.

If your system is older or needs multiple major components, it often makes more financial sense to replace rather than repair. A cracked heat exchanger is a safety concern that typically makes replacement the right call regardless of age.

For less severe issues, our technicians will compare a targeted repair against replacement with upfront pricing for both options — so you can choose with confidence after an on-site evaluation. We never push replacement when a repair is the smarter choice.

Start with a few quick checks before calling. If the system still won't run or smells odd after these steps, stop and call us for 24/7 emergency heating service.

  • Set the thermostat to Heat and raise it 3–5 degrees above room temperature
  • Replace thermostat batteries
  • Check the breaker and furnace or air handler power switch
  • Make sure the filter isn't clogged — a blocked filter can shut the system down
  • For heat pumps, clear any snow or debris from the outdoor unit

We've served Roanoke and nearby areas since 1986 and provide 24/7 emergency heating service when you need it most.

Most no-heat calls start with issues you can check quickly. Watch for uneven rooms, higher energy bills, odd odors, or a system that won't reach the set temperature. Common causes include:

  • A dirty air filter restricting airflow — replace it to restore heat flow
  • Thermostat not set to Heat or set below room temperature
  • A tripped breaker or a furnace or air handler switch turned off
  • Supply or return vents that are blocked or closed

If basic checks don't resolve it, our technicians provide detailed diagnostics with a written report and 24/7 emergency service across Roanoke, Vinton, Moneta, and nearby areas.

Heating repair cost varies by the problem and parts involved. Wisler confirms final pricing only after an on-site diagnosis — we offer free estimates on heater repairs and provide a firm, upfront written quote before any work begins.

Key factors that change the price include:

  • The specific failed component and its availability
  • System type and age affecting parts and labor
  • Equipment accessibility and any needed duct or electrical corrections
  • After-hours emergency service versus scheduled daytime repairs

If your system is older or needs multiple major components, we'll compare repair vs. replacement so you can choose confidently.

Yearly furnace maintenance with Wisler is available two ways:

  • $99 Furnace Tune-Up — a single visit covering a full inspection, cleaning, and performance check
  • Diamond Club Membership ($24/month) — includes up to three Without Worry Comfort Checks per year, with furnace maintenance scheduled before winter

Diamond Club members get the most value, with heating, cooling, plumbing, and electrical visits all covered under one low monthly rate. Service available across Roanoke, Martinsville, and nearby communities.

A Wisler furnace tune-up covers a complete system inspection, cleaning, and performance adjustments to improve reliability and efficiency heading into winter. As part of our Without Worry Comfort Check, you receive a written report card showing what we inspected, what we cleaned, and how the system is actually performing — not just that it "looks fine."

Our NATE-certified technicians arrive prepared, explain what was done and why, and flag any early warning signs before they become costly breakdowns. Schedule your fall service before the first cold snap.

Annual furnace service is recommended, ideally in the fall before the heating season begins. A yearly tune-up catches wear, cleans components that reduce efficiency, and verifies safety — including checks for carbon monoxide risks from cracked heat exchangers.

Diamond Club members receive scheduled furnace maintenance automatically as part of their membership, so there's no need to remember to call each year.

Yes. The majority of heating breakdowns are caused by neglected maintenance — dirty components that force the system to overwork, worn parts that go unnoticed, and small issues that escalate into expensive failures during the coldest nights of the year.

Regular tune-ups address all of these before they become emergencies. Diamond Club members also benefit from our No Breakdown Comfort Guarantee — if your system breaks down out of season after a maintenance visit, we fix it free.
