Rancho Cordova Furnace Problems We See

The older neighborhoods near Mather Field have homes built in the late 1970s through early 1990s. Many of these homes still have their original furnaces. That's 30+ years of wear on a system designed to last 15-20. These furnaces don't just stop working one day -- they give warning signs for months before they fail completely.

The most common issue we see in Rancho Cordova is ignitor failure on 1990s-era furnaces. The hot surface ignitor is a ceramic piece that glows red to light the gas. After 15-20 years, it cracks. Your furnace clicks, tries to light, and shuts down. This is a $150-$250 repair that takes about 30 minutes. We carry replacement ignitors on every truck.

The more serious problem is cracked heat exchangers. This is the metal chamber where gas burns to create heat. Over decades of heating and cooling cycles, the metal develops hairline cracks. These cracks can leak carbon monoxide into your home. We test for this on every furnace repair call. If the heat exchanger is cracked, the furnace needs to be replaced -- there's no safe way to repair it.

Sacramento Valley tule fog settles into Rancho Cordova on winter mornings. Outside temperatures drop into the mid-30s, and that cold, damp air makes a broken furnace impossible to ignore. Your pipes are at risk when indoor temps drop below 50 degrees.

If your furnace is making strange noises, blowing cold air, or not turning on at all, call us at (949) 236-1557. We'll diagnose the problem and give you the price before we start any work.
