Bassett Home Heating | Certified HVAC Repair in Seattle, WA

Seattle's damp climate and frequent system use for both heating and dehumidification can put extra strain on blower motors, leading to premature wear. At Bassett Home Heating, we diagnose the root cause—often related to moisture, lack of maintenance, or electrical issues—and provide a durable replacement designed to handle our local conditions, getting your system back to quiet, efficient operation.

Clogged drains are very common here due to our humid air and airborne algae. We recommend annual HVAC maintenance, which includes inspecting and cleaning the condensate drain line to prevent water damage and system shutdowns. Bassett Home Heating can also install preventative devices like float switches or UV lights to inhibit microbial growth and provide you with early warning.

A humming noise without the fan blowing air often indicates a seized blower motor—a frequent issue we see in Seattle. First, turn off the power to your furnace at the thermostat and the circuit breaker to prevent damage. Then, call Bassett Home Heating. Our technicians can quickly diagnose if it's a motor capacitor or the motor itself, and we typically carry common replacement parts to restore your heat promptly.
