HVAC Services Shorewood IL | Call Furnace & Air Works

Key warning signs include a yellow burner flame (instead of blue), excessive soot around the furnace, a strange, pungent odor, and symptoms like headaches or nausea in your household. Carbon monoxide is a silent danger. If you notice any of these signs, it's crucial to turn off the furnace, ventilate your home, and call Furnace & Air Works in Shorewood immediately for a professional safety inspection and repair.

First, we use specialized electronic leak detectors to precisely locate the source of the leak in your AC system. We then repair the leak according to EPA regulations, which often involves brazing the copper line or replacing a faulty component. Finally, we evacuate the system to remove moisture and air before recharging it with the correct, manufacturer-specified amount of refrigerant. This restores cooling efficiency and protects the environment.

Absolutely. Our comprehensive seasonal maintenance is the best defense. For your furnace, we clean and inspect the heat exchanger, flue, and burners to prevent carbon monoxide risks. For your AC, we check refrigerant levels and coil integrity to catch small issues before they become major leaks. This proactive care from your local Shorewood HVAC team keeps your system safe, extends its life, and improves efficiency.
