There are a lot of Wichita Heating Repair Services so how do you know which one is honest and dependable? We have all heard the horror stories of some of the incompetence in the field and even the flat out unethical and downright fraudulent practices that go on everyday to increase the total of the invoice.

Here are some of the issues to be aware of when you are having your heating system serviced or repaired:

First of all so many times there is the somewhat innocent unintentional misdiagnoses by an under experienced service tech. This happens all the time and one of the most common mistakes made by a heating repair service is thinking the gas valve is bad when it is a simple control problem. Or worse they can’t figure out what the problem is so they say the heat exchanger is cracked.

As much as we all would like to think that it doesn’t happen there are Wichita Heating Repair Service companies out there that will intentionally tell you your heat exchanger is cracked leading you into buying a new furnace and creating a big bill for you and a nice profit margin for them.

If your heater is within 10 years old or less (although it is possible if you have some kind of special circumstances going on with moisture accumulation in the space where your furnace is installed or you have had water leaking into the heat exchanger area) then it is unlikely that you have a cracked heat exchanger, especially now days more than ever because furnace manufacturers are currently making them out of stainless steel (with a tubular design in many cases) to keep this from happening.

Another practice that goes on with some of the unethical heating repair services is in the summer time when a customer is getting their air conditioner serviced or repaired they will remove a wire that operates the heat mode. This allows the air conditioner to continue to work but the heating cycle will not. Therefore you don’t even know that it was done to your system, because generally it is several months later before the heater is needed and a person doesn’t usually think much about it at that point. We generally think “well it worked fine last year” and then just dismiss is as something of chance.
