Expert Oil Furnace Repair in Grand Island

• Furnace won’t turn on. The thermostat setting may be incorrect. Check that it’s on “auto” and “heat.”
• Reset button keeps tripping. This safety feature turns off your furnace when it senses an issue. Make sure there’s fuel in the oil tank, the valves are open and the chimney is clear. Once you’ve checked those things, only press the reset button once. Pressing it multiple times could cause fuel oil to accumulate and cause a fire once the furnace starts.
• Not enough heat. The oil or air filters could be clogged and need to be cleaned or replaced.
• Excess noise. If you hear clattering, tighten access panels. Squealing means there’s an issue with the belt or blower motor. If these components include oiling ports, put several drops of electric motor oil on them after completely shutting off your furnace.

Other times, you’ll need one of our Expert service technicians. Call McElroy Service Experts for oil furnace repair service when:
