At Stephens Plumbing, we are happy to offer 24-hour gas furnace repair services in Bolingbrook, Illinois so you can rest assured you won’t be left out in the cold. Regardless, issues with your furnace can be stress-inducing. But, don’t panic, just because your system appears to be having issues does not mean that you will need a replacement. 

Common issues that can be resolved by one of our expert furnace service technicians include a clogged air filter, tripped circuit breaker, hot surface ignitor issues, or ignition issues. Our team is also able to clean the burners on your furnace. Each problem will show different warning signs, so it's important to schedule a furnace service as soon as possible when you are experiencing issues so our licensed technicians can take a look.

How Your Gas Furnace Works

  • Heat is generated in the burner using propane or natural gas
  • Heat passes through the exchanger
  • Air from the home's ductwork is blown over the heat exchanger which warms the air
  • The furnace's blower forces the heated air into the supply ductwork, which distributes it throughout the home

Each component of the system works together to keep your home comfortable, so at the first sign of system issues, give us a call. Stephens Plumbing provides fast and safe plumbing and gas furnace services for small to large homes in Bolingbrook, IL. Give us a call by phone at (630) 968-0783 or schedule an appointment online to receive assistance.

Similar to gas furnaces, your electric furnace may be trying to tell you something! When an electric furnace isn’t working properly, you may be hearing noises from your system such as booming, clicking, squealing, rattling, and chirping.

Our team of plumbers and HVAC technicians in Bolingbrook, IL are thrilled to offer 24-hour electric furnace repair services to ensure that you are comfortable no matter what time of day. 

Generally speaking, if you are in the market for a new furnace, electric furnaces are cheaper and can last much longer. Keep in mind that the initial purchase price may be cheaper, but you could also see higher monthly heating bills as electricity is generally more expensive than gas. Either route you take, our team is here to provide you with intuitive HVAC and furnace services.

Looking for a Replacement Furnace?

While furnaces are built to last, inevitably, there comes a time when the system needs to be replaced. Typically, electric furnaces last 20-30 years, have a lower cost upfront but can spike your electricity bills, depending on use. In contrast, gas furnaces typically have a lifespan of 15-20 years, have a higher cost upfront, but typically cost less to use. 

Ultimately, the decision of investing in an electric or gas furnace will be based on preference. If you would like more information or guidance, call our experts. We are happy to help you choose a new furnace and provide you with reliable HVAC, plumbing, and furnace repair services.

Common Issues With Air Conditioning Systems

The System is Producing Little to No Cold Air

HVAC System is Producing Noises

You may be noticing rattling, buzzing, or humming noises. Each noise indicates different air conditioning repair issues. In order to prevent further damage, we recommend turning your system off if you experience any of these noises. Call Stephens Plumbing for affordable, expert HVAC services.

Foul Odor Throughout Your Home

Luckily, if you catch this issue early it is generally a simple fix. Foul odors are typically associated with obstruction in the air ducts of your unit. Contact a licensed technician on our team to perform an air conditioning repair service and an inspection of your air ducts to ensure they are clear of objects or materials. Additionally, if your system is producing a rotten egg odor, call us immediately. This may be indicative of a gas leak and should be attended to as soon as possible.

Drain Cleaning Services

Drain Cleaning & Power Rodding Plumbing Services

Tired of constantly dealing with clogged drains? It may be time for power rodding or drain cleaning services from Stephens Plumbing. Our plumbers in Bolingbrook provide affordable plumbing maintenance, repair, and replacement services to homeowners.

Generally, a good practice is to be sure to only put water or liquid down your drains. Avoid anything that may get stuck along the way, and give us a call if you are experiencing constant clogs. No matter where the issue lines in your home or commercial space, our Bolingbrook plumbing services can help to restore your plumbing system. 

Tips for Avoiding Clogs

  • Only put water-based liquids down your drain
  • Install drain gates to avoid random objects making their way into your plumbing lines
  • Run hot water through your drains after using your sinks to help flush buildup and debris

This method is typically used for stubborn clogs and works on both new and old plumbing.
