Signs You Need Heating Repair in Houston
Because of the short heating season in Houston, heaters typically need less frequent repairs than air conditioners. However, it’s still good to learn the signs that something isn’t quite right with your heating:
- Cool or cold air coming from the vents when the heat is on.
- No air blowing from the vents or heater refuses to turn on.
- Uneven heating throughout your home.
- Odd smells or sounds when the heat is running.
- Short-cycling (your heater turning on and off quickly).
- The heater won’t stop running.
- A sudden and unexplainable spike in your heating bill.
- A discolored pilot light on a gas furnace or boiler.
- Excessive dirt, dust, and other debris coming from the vents.
- Air filters that get dirty too quickly.
- Carbon monoxide detection*.
*If your carbon monoxide detector goes off, vacate the home immediately and call 911 or your local fire department. If they identify a leaking heater as the source, schedule an emergency heating repair.

Houston Heating Repair FAQs
When does it get cold in Houston?
Temperatures typically start dipping into the 60s at night in October, though you likely won’t need daytime heating until November or December. Schedule your annual maintenance check before the heating season starts to make sure your system’s in the best condition.
What kind of heater is most energy efficient?
Heat pumps are the most efficient heating options available, with geothermal units being even more efficient than air-source models. Heat pumps also use space efficiently, since the same unit can heat and cool your home, rather than having a separate AC and furnace/boiler. Heat pumps are technically way more efficient than those that use natural gas, though not necessarily less expensive to operate, depending on the current local rates for natural gas/propane and electricity.
Regardless, replacing a gas furnace or boiler with a heat pump will eliminate the carbon monoxide danger and lower your home’s carbon footprint. Heat pumps also now come with generous federal incentives.
Who do I call to fix my heater?
Always call a professional HVAC technician to fix your heater. If basic troubleshooting like replacing your filter and changing thermostat batteries doesn’t work, it’s time for the pros. We have the tools and specialized training to repair your heater right the first time. DIY repair jobs can cause more harm than good and lead to even more expensive repairs.
