Elmar Heating & Cooling - Mechanicsburg - Mechanicsburg's Qualified HVAC Services

This is called short cycling, a common issue for Mechanicsburg homes. It's often caused by a clogged air filter restricting airflow, a faulty flame sensor, or an oversized system. Not only is it annoying, but it also wastes energy and strains your furnace. Our technicians can quickly diagnose the specific cause and perform the necessary repair to restore normal, efficient operation.

An air handler fan failure can leave you without heat or cool air. Common culprits include a failed capacitor (which gives the motor its starting boost), a burnt-out motor, a tripped safety switch, or a problem with the control board. This is a job for a professional. We'll safely test the components, identify the faulty part, and replace it with a high-quality component to get your system running smoothly again.

Before calling for service, there are a few simple, neighborly checks you can do. First, ensure your thermostat is set to 'Heat' or 'Cool' and the temperature setting is correct. Next, check and replace your air filter if it's dirty—this solves many airflow-related issues. Also, verify that the circuit breaker for your HVAC system hasn't tripped. If these steps don't resolve the problem, give us a call. We're here to help with the more complex diagnostics and repairs.
