With our experience and high-quality tools, we can restore comfort in your Michigan home quickly and efficiently.

Uneven Heating Throughout the House
Have you ever walked from your bedroom to the living room or kitchen and noticed a significant temperature difference? There could be an issue with your duct system, but you may also need furnace or heater repair or maintenance. Hoover can help find the source of the problem and correct it quickly. Call us immediately when you notice this symptom, and we’ll fix it so your entire home is cozy this winter.
Strange Sounds Coming From the Furnace/Heater
Even though all heaters and furnaces make some noise, including when they’re regularly maintained, they should be relatively quiet. When you start to hear more aggressive clanking, banging, or even moaning coming from the basement or utility closet, give us a call. We’ll find the source of the problem fast. Every home heating repair comes with a free estimate, whether there’s a leak, rusted-out pipes, or anything else needing adjustment or repair.
The Heater Is Short Cycling
When your furnace turns on and off too frequently, there’s likely something wrong, and you may need to schedule a home heating repair service. We have the tools and equipment to diagnose the underlying issue and correct it in little time. At the very least, the system is running inefficiently, and there’s a good chance you’ll be paying more on your heating bill. By performing furnace repairs, Hoover can save you money over time.
Worsening Air Quality
If you or a family member are suffering more frequent allergies or respiratory issues, your heater or furnace could be supplying poor-quality air. Indoor pollutants such as dirt, dust, and mildew can signify furnace trouble or strain your heating system. The problem can be easily fixed by our professional technicians. Furnace repair can stop pollutants from circulating and can contribute to improvements in your family’s health.
The Electric Bill Is Unusually High
Your electricity bill is undoubtedly higher in winter because your heater is used more. Over time, if regular maintenance isn’t performed, you will notice your bill getting higher year after year. Calling on Hoover’s experts keeps your monthly energy bill low and your home comfortable.
Your Pilot Light Has Turned Yellow
The flame is an easy way to check on the health of your heater or furnace. If it is burning any color other than blue, you should have it looked at by a professional. Yellow is an especially concerning color. Tar and rust are common reasons for the color change, but the heating and furnace repair specialists at Hoover will find the root cause. Call us as soon as you notice this issue. We offer same-day service for inspections and repairs.
Having to Turn up the Heat Higher and Higher
Do you often turn up the thermostat in your home to get the heat you want? Have you noticed no matter how high you set the temperature, your home is still not warm enough? Hoover’s technicians will check to see if there is an issue with your thermostat or if you need a furnace or heating repair. Our fleet is equipped with high-quality tools to ensure the job gets done not only quickly but correctly the first time we come to visit.

What Are the Most Common Furnace Repairs?
The most common issues we get called out for include a dirty flame sensor. It’s easy for the sensor to get covered in dust and soot. The ignitor may go out due to wear and tear caused by the furnace cycling and expansion and contraction from heat; power surges also damage ignitors. Issues with inducer motors, blower motors, and circuit boards are also quite common and are easily fixed by our experienced technicians.The most common issues we get called out for include a dirty flame sensor.

Should I Repair My Furnace Myself?
Any repair should be left to a professional. Without training, working on your furnace can endanger your safety and cause more damage. If your heater isn’t working as smoothly, you can clean or replace the filter. If the unit stops working, check whether the thermostat is set correctly or if the furnace is turned on. Also, check the circuit breaker and reset it if necessary.
How Do I Know the Thermostat Is the Source of the Problem?
One issue many Michigan residents don’t consider when their heater or furnace isn’t working is a thermostat problem. It is the control center for your heating needs and wants. If it’s out of whack or not getting enough power, any type of heating source will work harder. Over time, this can lead to premature and costly home heating repairs. Here are some signs your thermostat is the culprit behind your heating issues:
- The display screen isn’t working or is fading in and out.
- The temperature in the room doesn’t match your current setting.
- Your heater or furnace turns on in more frequent cycles.
- The thermostat is dusty and dirty.
- You have a manual thermostat or another outdated model.
- Faulty wiring from the thermostat to the heater.
- The thermostat is installed in a drafty, sunlit, or other non-ideal location.
Should I Repair an Old Furnace?
Whether it’s worth it to fix a furnace that’s over 15 years old depends on a few things. The cost of the repair is one; if the repair bill is nearly as much as a new unit or over half the price of a replacement, it’s time for a more efficient upgrade. However, if the system is working efficiently and hasn’t required many repairs, a fix-up can give it more life.
Discounts and Financing Are Available
Unexpected furnace/heater repairs, complete furnace replacements, and thermostat installations can add up in cost very quickly. Regular maintenance helps HVAC equipment last and saves you on repairs and premature replacement. Thankfully, Hoover Electric, Plumbing, Heating, and Cooling provides Michigan residents with low-cost heating and furnace repairs and free estimates for all heating services. To help even further, we offer specials and discounts to help keep costs down and protect your wallet. Special financing is also available with approved credit to help get the heater, furnace, and thermostat repairs you need quickly.
What Does It Cost to Repair a Furnace?
The cost of furnace repair varies considerably. A small repair may not cost much, but replacing a major component can cost several hundred dollars or more. The most costly parts to replace include the blower motor, heat exchanger, and draft inducer motor. However, replacing a gas valve or ignitor can cost significantly less. You’ll also save if a component can be repaired on the spot rather than replaced.
However, other factors can impact the cost of heater repair. These include the age of the unit, availability of replacement parts, and labor. Older or outdated models may require multiple repairs or involve more time-consuming steps to disassemble and reassemble them. Our technicians provide a thorough evaluation and precise estimate before starting any furnace repair.
