If your heater has stopped working, it can be miserable trying to keep warm in your home<\/em>. That\u2019s why <a href=\"https:\/\/www.duallheating.com\/about\">DuAll Heating and Cooling<\/a> works hard to provide complete <a href=\"https:\/\/www.duallheating.com\/service-areas\/naperville\">Naperville heating<\/a> services. For our customers in the Chicago and Naperville area, we thought it would be helpful to put together a quick list of some of the reasons why you might not be getting any heat in your home.

We\u2019ll send one of our trained technicians to your home to figure out what the problem is and offer a solution.<\/p>\n<h3>Clogged Air Filter<\/h3>\n<p><em>Believe it or not, one of the most common causes of furnace and heat pump problems is a clogged air filter<\/em>. Without proper maintenance, the filter can get clogged with dirt and dust which restricts the flow of air into your home. When you call a heating contractor, one of the first places they may look is at your air filter.<\/p>\n<h3>Thermostat<\/h3>\n<p>Another common culprit of no heat is your thermostat. If the thermostat in your home has malfunctioned, it might be sensing that your home doesn\u2019t need heat so it\u2019s not turning on your heater. A visit from your Naperville heating contractor will be able to determine if that is the case.<\/p>\n<h3>Burner<\/h3>\n<p>If you have a gas-fired furnace or boiler, there could be an issue with the burner. If the pilot light has gone out there won\u2019t be any heat. Additionally, there could be a problem with the thermocouple. The thermocouple is a safety device that detects if the pilot light is lit. If it detects heat, then it allows fuel to flow into the furnace. If it doesn\u2019t detect heat, like when the pilot light goes out, it will shut off the flow of gas. If the thermocouple is malfunctioning, it could have inadvertently shut off the gas to your burner.<\/p>\n<h3>Fan<\/h3>\n<p><em>If the fan for your furnace or heat pump is broken, there won\u2019t be anything to push the air through your home<\/em>. This could be because the motor is broken or because the fan\u2019s belt is broken. Either way, you should call a heating contractor as soon as possible to fix the problem.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you have any of these problems or if you suspect that it is another issue<\/em>, call DuAll Heating and Cooling for all your heating in Naperville needs today.
