Although it seems obvious that you should call for repairs when this happens, people sometimes wait to call for help because they think the issue is temporary and the heater will kick back on soon. But, even if the heater <i>does<\/i> come back on at some point, any failure indicates there is a serious flaw in the operation that will lead to more breakdowns and very inefficient, energy-draining operation.<\/li>\n<li><b>The heater starts making loud, unexpected noises: <\/b>You should always call for repairs when your heater makes noises that you don\u2019t expect. But when these noises are particularly loud\u2014such grating, grinding, and screeching\u2014there is something amiss in the heater that needs remedy as soon as possible. Shut the heater down and call for repairs.<\/li>\n<li><b>Acrid smells come from the vents: <\/b>If you have a forced-air system in your home, smells from the vents are major warnings of repair needs. If you smell an acrid scent, like burning, it could indicate failing motors inside the heater\u2019s cabinet, and you need repairs before the heater breaks down entirely.<\/li>\n<li><b>Your carbon monoxide detectors go off: <\/b>If you have a gas-powered heater in your home, we recommend that you have CO detectors put in your house as well to warn you of an increase of carbon monoxide (which is colorless and odorless). Should these detectors go off, leave you house and call for professionals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Make Sure You Have a Contractor With Emergency Service<\/h2>\n<p>Not all heating repair contractors offer 24-hour emergency service.
