Heating Service in Ault, CO

When winter temperatures plummet across the Colorado plains, your heating system becomes the most critical component of your home’s comfort and safety. Here at Northern Air, we understand the unique challenges that Ault residents face during the harsh winter months, where temperatures can drop well below freezing and sudden weather changes demand reliable heating performance. Our comprehensive heating service ensures your system operates at peak efficiency when you need it most.

Since our founding in 1992, we’ve developed an intimate understanding of the heating demands specific to this region. The combination of high altitude, dry air, and extreme temperature fluctuations places unique stress on heating systems that requires specialized knowledge and expertise. Our team of certified technicians brings over 40 years of combined experience in heating and air conditioning repair, service, and installation to every home we visit.

Comprehensive Heating System Diagnostics

Every heating service begins with a thorough system evaluation that examines all critical components of your furnace or heat pump. We inspect heat exchangers for cracks or corrosion, test safety controls and limit switches, measure gas pressure and combustion efficiency, and verify proper airflow throughout your ductwork system. This detailed assessment allows us to identify potential issues before they develop into costly breakdowns, especially important given that heating system failures often occur during the coldest periods when repair services are in highest demand.

Our diagnostic process also includes checking your thermostat calibration, examining electrical connections for signs of wear or overheating, and testing carbon monoxide detectors to ensure your family’s safety. We analyze your system’s cycling patterns to determine if short-cycling or extended run times indicate underlying problems that could impact both comfort and energy efficiency. As a Lennox Premier Dealer, we have access to advanced diagnostic tools and technical resources that enable us to service all major heating system brands and models effectively.

Preventive Maintenance Programs

Regular heating maintenance dramatically extends equipment lifespan while reducing energy costs and preventing unexpected breakdowns. Our maintenance programs include comprehensive cleaning of all system components, from burner assemblies to blower motors, ensuring optimal heat transfer and airflow. We replace filters, lubricate moving parts, tighten electrical connections, and calibrate your thermostat for accurate temperature control.

The extreme temperature variations common in Ault make preventive maintenance particularly valuable. During a typical maintenance visit, we clean and adjust your furnace’s burner assembly to ensure proper combustion, which maximizes heating efficiency while minimizing carbon monoxide production. We inspect and clean the flame sensor, a critical safety component that can cause system shutdowns if contaminated. Our technicians also examine your home’s ventilation system to ensure proper exhaust of combustion gases and adequate fresh air intake for optimal system operation.

Emergency Heating Repairs Available 24/7

Heating emergencies don’t follow business hours, which is why we maintain round-the-clock availability for urgent repair needs. Whether your furnace stops working during a midnight cold snap or fails on a holiday weekend, our emergency response team stands ready to restore your home’s warmth quickly and efficiently.

Common heating issues we address include:

• Ignition system failures including faulty pilot lights, electronic ignition problems, and flame sensor malfunctions
• Blower motor problems ranging from capacitor failures to bearing wear that causes unusual noises or reduced airflow
• Heat exchanger issues that compromise both efficiency and safety, requiring immediate professional attention

Energy Efficiency Optimization

Rising energy costs make heating efficiency more important than ever for Ault homeowners. We analyze your current system’s performance metrics, including Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency ratings, to identify opportunities for improvement. Simple adjustments like proper duct sealing can reduce heating costs by up to 20%, while programmable thermostat installation enables precise temperature control that matches your daily schedule.

Our efficiency optimization services extend beyond equipment adjustments to include comprehensive home comfort analysis. We evaluate insulation levels, identify air leakage points, and assess whether your current heating system properly matches your home’s size and layout. This holistic approach ensures maximum comfort while minimizing energy consumption throughout the heating season.
