My gas ducted heater is blowing cold air in Woodend, what is wrong?
Cold or barely warm air while the fan still runs usually points to an ignition, gas valve or burner fault rather than the fan. It is the most common winter breakdown we attend and is often a first-visit fix. Avoid running it repeatedly, as some faults will keep locking the system out.
My heater will not turn on at all, what should I check first?
Check the thermostat has power and is set to heat, check the isolation switch near the unit has not been knocked off, and check whether a fault code is showing. If it still will not start it is usually a lockout, igniter or control board issue and needs a technician.
Is it dangerous to keep running a heater that is playing up?
It can be. A gas appliance that is short cycling, showing soot marks or giving off any smell of gas should be turned off and looked at by a licensed technician before it runs again. A cracked heat exchanger or blocked flue can put carbon monoxide into the home with no smell at all, which is why carbon monoxide testing is part of every service we do.
My heater struggles on the coldest Woodend mornings, is that normal?
Some drop in performance on a frosty morning is normal, but a heater that cannot get the house warm, short cycles or blows cool air usually has a fault or a dirty filter. A service will sort most of these and restore proper output.
