Frequently Asked Questions
My furnace in Springfield keeps turning on and off quickly (short cycling). What can F J Murphy & Son do?
Short cycling is a common issue in our climate, often caused by an oversized unit, a dirty air filter, or a faulty thermostat. Our technicians are familiar with local HVAC systems and can diagnose the root cause. We'll perform a thorough inspection, which may include checking refrigerant levels, the heat exchanger, and the control board. We provide clear repair options or, if necessary, can discuss properly sized replacement units to improve efficiency and comfort in your home.
Do you offer plumbing inspections for older homes in the Springfield area?
Yes, we do. Given the age of many homes in our community, proactive plumbing inspections are a valuable service. Our licensed plumbers can assess your entire system, including pipes, drains, water heaters, and fixtures, to identify potential issues like corrosion, slow drains, or outdated materials. This allows us to recommend preventative repairs or upgrades, helping you avoid more costly emergencies down the line and maintain your home's value.
Are you available for emergency gas line repairs after hours?
Absolutely. Safety is our top priority. We provide 24/7 emergency service for urgent issues like suspected gas leaks, which require immediate attention. Our bonded and licensed technicians are trained in safe gas line repair procedures. If you smell gas or suspect a leak, we advise you to evacuate the area and call us immediately; we will dispatch a technician promptly to diagnose and secure the situation.
