What Oregon Homeowners Frequently Ask About Furnance
Commonly Asked Questions Regarding Furnace Systems
Question 1: How often should my furnace be serviced?
Most HVAC professionals recommend a full furnace tune-up once a year, ideally in early fall before the heating season starts. Annual maintenance keeps your system efficient, prevents emergency breakdowns, and helps identify safety issues early.
Question 2: What are the signs my furnace needs repair?
Common warning signs include:
- Strange noises (banging, rattling, grinding)
- Uneven or weak airflow
- Burning or musty smells
- Furnace turning on and off frequently
- Higher energy bills
- Cold spots throughout the home
If you notice any of these, schedule a diagnostic before the system fails completely.
Question 3: Why is my furnace blowing cold air?
This often happens because of:
- A dirty or clogged air filter
- An overheating system
- Thermostat issues
- A pilot light or ignition failure
If basic troubleshooting doesn’t help, it’s best to have a technician inspect the system.
Question 4: How long does a furnace typically last?
Most furnaces last 15–20 years with proper maintenance. Older units become less efficient and more prone to breakdowns, which can make replacement more cost-effective than repeated repairs.
Question 5: What can homeowners do themselves to maintain their furnace?
You can:
- Replace your air filter every 60–90 days
- Vacuum around vents and returns
- Keep the furnace area clear of items
- Check the thermostat settings
- Listen for any unusual noises
Anything involving gas, ignition, or electrical components should be handled by a licensed HVAC technician.
Question 6: Why does my furnace smell like burning when it turns on?
A slight burning smell is normal the first time the furnace runs for the season — dust burns off the heat exchanger.
If the smell lasts more than 30 minutes or smells electrical, metallic, or smoky, turn the furnace off and call for service immediately.
Question 7: How can regular furnace maintenance save me money?
Maintenance helps your system run efficiently, reducing monthly heating costs. It also prevents small issues from turning into expensive repairs and extends your furnace’s lifespan. A cleaned and tuned furnace uses less energy and works more consistently.
Question 8: Why does my furnace keep turning on and off (short cycling)?
Short cycling is usually caused by:
- A clogged air filter
- Overheating
- A malfunctioning thermostat
- Improper furnace sizing
This problem strains your system and raises energy costs. A technician should diagnose the root cause.
Question 9: Should I repair or replace my furnace?
A repair is usually fine if the unit is newer and the issue is minor.
Replacement may be the better choice if your furnace is:
- Over 15 years old
- Breaking down frequently
- Causing high energy bills
- Producing inconsistent heat
A professional inspection can compare repair vs. replacement costs.
Question 10: Is furnace maintenance really necessary if the heat is working fine?
Yes. A furnace can appear to be working but still have hidden issues like:
- Carbon monoxide risks
- Cracked heat exchangers
- Failing motors
- Blocked airflow
- Dangerous electrical components
Maintenance keeps your home safe and prevents surprise breakdowns during Oregon’s colder months.

Time and time again. Eliseo and his team are some of the best folks to work with. I had some issues with the heater some how shutting off and having issues with the thermostat. But they got it all fixed and put in a new thermostat and it resolved all those problems! They made sure I was aware of the issues and took care of me like one of their own! 100% definitely recommend anyone trying to get anything done with honest and reliable service.
Great service and Communication. Was able to get an appointment next day for maintenance on our furnace.
Very Knowledgeable tech came by and explained more about my HVAC system than thee others that have come by recently. Liked the detail.
Eliseo Cortes (HVAC Ministries) was incredible. He walked me through the entire install, explaining each aspect of the install. His guarantee for a job done right is as good as his name. His cost to me was very reasonable and the workmanship was impeccable. I will have him service my HVAC needs in the future. He is a people person and I found working with him a real pleasure.
Superior work, above and beyond service, respectful of my home. Great deals, friendly.
I would totally recommend Hvac Ministries because they are professional, knowledgeable, and reliable. Elisio and his team did a marvelous job, they arrived early, took a look at the old system and gave honest advice, were able to replace the entire system within a short time, their work is efficient and now our system is working great.

John did a thorough check on my furnace system. I really appreciated his superb knowledge and expertise of my older unit. He took the time to educate me on what to look for as indicators to a potential problem with the unit. It helps me stay on top of one of the big components of the home.

Eliseo and his partner came on Friday and did a thorough examination of our furnace and we decided that a new furnace would be preferable to repairing the problems in the old furnace. They were willing to come back the next day (Saturday) to do the work which they did and all is working great now. They were very professional and cleaned up everything before leaving.
Great prices and even better turnaround times these guys are amazing
Very professional and they always communicate.
