Furnace Repair
If you’re having problems with your heating system and you live in the Niagara Region, call Calcon Plumbing and Heating right away. Your family’s comfort and safety are important to us, so we’ll respond to your call promptly.
One of the most common causes of heating system problems is a lack of preventive maintenance. Regular maintenance is performed to detect minor problems and repair them before they become more serious. Unfortunately, breakdowns or malfunctions can still happen.
Some common causes of furnace repair may include:
- Failing motor, which can include noises like squeaking, squealing, banging, or rattling
- Furnace won’t turn on
- Burner won’t ignite, which can be due to a blocked flue, improper limit control, or a faulty control board
- Capacitor or motor problems
- Clogged filters
This is why furnace maintenance is vital to keeping your unit operating at maximum capacity. We recommend having a furnace tune-up at least once a year. But if you need furnace repair in the Niagara Region, Calcon Plumbing and Heating is the right HVAC contractor for your needs.

A furnace replacement is a big decision, but we’re happy to help you pick the type and size that will fit your home.

Our experts will carefully assess your needs and recommend some options for you to install furnace replacements.
There are three main types of systems:
