I really need to get the heating system tuned up – it overheats us too easily!

Last winter, my husband and I went through a pretty rough patch with the weather.

  • Our house suffered a good bit of damage from going without heat for a few days at a time, and in turn the water pipes were popping left and right around our home.

Making matters worse, we couldn’t even use the fireplace to get some kind of manual heating system running, as we forgot to get a chimney sweep here to clear out all the creosote. With so few options left, we had to get a new heating system installed. We did just that, and we’ve basically went from one extreme to another! We went from having no heating at all, to now having a heating system that works too quickly. I don’t know what you would call it, but with air conditioning, having a system that’s too high in “tons” will cause the A/C to cycle on and off. So whatever that would be called for a heating system, that’s what we’re dealing with. I think we’ll need to just call a heating and air conditioning service technician to come and service the equipment, because otherwise we won’t be able to put up with the ridiculously high bills that come with using this overpowered heating system. It’s just a gas furnace – I don’t get how it can be so powerful! Maybe when we get an HVAC service technician here in the house, they can find that there’s just too much gas flowing into the furnace, or some other simple fix will be available for us.
