Furnace Repair & Maintenance in Wall, NJ

Although furnace units and installations are cheaper than a boiler and are relatively easy to maintain, they do require regularly scheduled maintenance. Furnace systems heat and distribute air in your home or business via duct work. The annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) rating varies by furnace technology, so units can have different maintenance needs.

How Does a Furnace Work?
There are several types of furnaces, including gas, electric, and oil.
Each type of furnace works a bit differently:
- Gas furnaces use either a pilot light or an electronic ignition system to set alight a burner within the combustion chamber. This process generates heat, which is absorbed by the heat exchanger, which is a metallic element that raises the temperature of the cool air delivered by the blower motor.
- Electric furnaces use electrical ignition to generate heat. Instead of a burner, they have electric heating elements that get hot when electricity passes through them.
- Oil furnaces work similarly to gas furnaces, but they use oil as fuel.
The ignition system plays a critical role in starting the furnace. Once the ignition system has started the burner or heating elements, the heat exchanger comes into play. It absorbs the heat from the combustion gases or electric elements and transfers it to the air.
The blower motor then pushes this heated air into the ductwork, distributing it throughout the home. It's important to note that the combustion gases produced in gas and oil furnaces are vented out of the home through a flue, ensuring safety. All these components work together efficiently to keep your home warm and comfortable.
What Can Cause a Furnace to Stop Working?
Even with regular maintenance problems can still arise. With so many various working elements within the furnace, the possibility of a repair eventually being needed is high, and when your heat stops working, you want to know which of these parts is actually causing the issue. Damaged mechanical components, such as the burners, thermocouple, and blower motor, clogged air filters, faulty thermostats, electrical issues with the system’s wiring or a tripped circuit breaker, as well as general wear and tear on the system can all lead to a repair being needed. To best identify the source of the problem, it is recommended that you consult with a professional heater repair technician from our team. We will be able to thoroughly inspect your furnace to determine what exactly is causing the malfunction and what repair is needed.
Signs Your Furnace Needs Repair:
- The furnace struggles to turn on
- There is more dust throughout your home
- Your home isn’t receiving the level of heat needed
- The pilot light has changed colors from blue to yellow
- You notice unusual burning or mildew-like odors when the furnace is on
- Your system is producing cool air instead of warm air
- The rooms throughout your home vary in temperature
If you notice any of these signs, don’t hesitate to reach out to our company. Delaying a repair will only cause further damage, as well as a decrease in the system’s efficiency, and even an early breakdown in some cases.

"Thanks Michael!"
Sewer backed up. Panic among the troops. Michael from Bailey came right out, updating us on his ETA via text. One LOOOOOONG snake later, our system was unclogged. I enjoyed talking with Michael as well, gave me a few tips to try to eliminate (no pun!) this issue in future. Thanks Michael!!- Clement M. -
"Oliver your Technician was Super Professional"
Hi Everyone... I just want to thank Bailey's for sending out Oliver to fix my Shower. Oliver was knowledgeable, considerate and professional. The cost of the repairs was expensive, but unfortunately the piece that needed replacing was Old and impossible to remove from the outside unit. I know Oliver tried to keep costs down. We want to thank him for all his hard work. We think it was worth every penny. We now have a Nice hot shower. We certainly can't live without that. Thanks Bailey Plumbing... Have a Good Day.!!😁- Carol D. -

"Amazing service!"
Tech Andrew Stinemire was dispatched to my property for a sewer line back up. The issue was accessed from the outside. Andrew called before he started to explain everything thoroughly. After job was finished he followed up with another phone call. Andrews comportment was nothing short of stellar. I have used many plumbers and unfortunately they rush you off the phone. A lot of plumbers act as if they are doing you a favor. Not Andrew! He talked to me like an old friend and made sure I understood everything. We need more plumbers like him. He understands very well that ultimately this is a service business and the customer needs to be treated with deference and respect- T. Hearn -
"Excellent, quick service"
Today we needed help with what we thought was a blocked sewer. We were referred to Bailey through American Water. Andrew was our technician. He arrived quickly and was very knowledgeable about our problem. He identified the issue, did the work and resolved the problem. We are very pleased with every aspect of our service call today and highly recommend this company.- Deborah O. -
"Difficult Job done well!"
I had an outside leak from the water pipe entering our basement. The crew they sent had to dig to deep to find the elusive location. They were able to locate it and fix it witout damaging the adjacent brick walkway or the sourrounding areas. Amazing work!- Gary M. -
