Yes, absolutely. A comprehensive plumbing inspection often checks your home's gas lines and water supply to appliances like your furnace. In Minneapolis's extreme cold, ensuring these lines are leak-free and properly pressurized is crucial for safe and reliable furnace ignition, preventing dangerous failures when you need heat the most.

It can be. While some frost is normal during a defrost cycle, a completely frozen unit in our climate often indicates a refrigerant issue or airflow problem that needs immediate attention. Leaving it unresolved can cause further damage. Bonfe's technicians are experts in diagnosing and safely thawing frozen heat pumps to restore your home's heating efficiently.

First, ensure your thermostat is set to 'heat' and the temperature is set above the current room reading. Check that the furnace's power switch is on and the circuit breaker hasn't tripped. For gas furnaces, verify the gas valve to the unit is open. If these simple steps don't resolve it, call us. Persistent ignition failure in our cold snaps requires expert diagnosis to prevent safety hazards and get your heat back on.
