Common signs include a yellow burner flame (instead of blue), soot stains around the appliance, excessive moisture on windows, and household members experiencing flu-like symptoms like headaches or nausea. If you suspect a leak, immediately open windows for ventilation, evacuate your home, and call us or 911. Our technicians are trained to safely locate and seal combustion leaks, perform flue inspections, and ensure your furnace vents properly to protect your family.

Yes, poor cooling, ice forming on coils, and hissing sounds can indicate a refrigerant leak. Beyond reducing efficiency, these leaks are an environmental hazard and can damage your compressor. For Maywood homes, we use electronic leak detectors to find even the smallest breaches. We then repair the leak, reclaim the old refrigerant following EPA guidelines, and recharge the system to the manufacturer's exact specification, restoring performance and safety.

We recommend an annual furnace safety inspection and tune-up, ideally before the heating season begins. Our thorough inspection checks the heat exchanger for cracks, tests for CO leaks, verifies flue draft, cleans critical components, and ensures all safety controls function. This proactive maintenance is crucial for older systems common in our area and is the best way to prevent dangerous situations, improve efficiency, and extend your furnace's life.
