Furnace Repair in Jefferson, Commerce, and Northeast Georgia

When the furnace will not start on a cold night, or the house never really gets warm, you should not have to wait until morning — and you should not have to figure it out first. Patriot Service is a veteran-owned company serving homes and businesses in Jefferson, Commerce, and the surrounding area. We diagnose and repair furnaces and other heating systems, and we are open 24/7 at (706) 870-7665. We have a 4.9-star rating on more than 1,500 Google reviews.

Common reasons to call

Call us if the furnace is not heating, will not start, is blowing cool air, or is turning on and off without warming the house. Other signs worth a call include unusual noises, an unfamiliar smell from the unit, a pilot or ignition that will not stay lit, or a system that runs constantly and still leaves rooms cold.

You do not have to decide whether it is the furnace, the thermostat, or the airflow. Call (706) 870-7665, and we will take it from there.

If you smell gas, leave the building and call 911. Also call your gas company.

How we repair a furnace

Most heating visits start with a house that is too cold, or a furnace that is not behaving the way it should. We inspect the system, find the problem, tell you what we found, and repair it when that is still the right path. That can include ignition and control problems, a failing blower motor, airflow issues, a thermostat that is not calling for heat, or other parts that have worn out.

We also work on the heating side of a heat pump. If you are not sure whether you have a furnace or a heat pump, call anyway — we will identify the equipment when we get there. For a broader look at our heating and cooling work, start at HVAC. See also heat pump repair and installation.

Repair or replace

A repair is often enough to get the heat back on. If the furnace is worn out, has a cracked heat exchanger, or has failed repeatedly, we will be direct about replacement and quote the work. We will look at the equipment and tell you which path we recommend, and why. If you need a new system, see HVAC installation and repair.

Maintenance

A lot of no-heat calls start as a problem that could have been caught on a fall visit — a dirty burner, a failing igniter, or a filter that has been starving the system of air. The Patriot Readiness Program includes two HVAC visits a year for homeowners, including a heating inspection. Our HVAC Maintenance Program is also available for homes and businesses. We will explain what each one includes and what it costs when you call.

What if I smell gas? Leave the building and call 911. Also call your gas company.

Should I repair my furnace or replace it? It depends on the condition of the equipment, how often it has failed, and whether it can still heat the house safely. We will look at it and say which one we recommend, and why.
