Common heating problems

The furnace and heat pump failures we see in West Texas.

A West Texas winter is mostly mild with sharp, sudden freezes — the kind that exposes a furnace problem at the worst moment. These are the issues Wright Choice diagnoses most.

  • No heat at all or the furnace won’t ignite
  • Cold air from the vents when the heat is calling
  • Short cycling — the furnace starts and stops too fast
  • A burning or musty smell when the heat first kicks on
  • Uneven heating with cold rooms far from the unit
  • A heat pump stuck in defrost or running auxiliary heat constantly
  • The blower runs but the burners never light
  • A pilot, igniter, or flame-sensor fault shutting the system down
How it works

How a heating repair call goes with Wright Choice.

Heat is a safety issue, so we treat it like one — diagnose carefully, fix it right, and confirm the system is safe to run.

  1. Safety-first diagnosis

    We check ignition, the flame sensor, gas pressure, the heat exchanger, the blower, and the thermostat — combustion problems get checked before anything else.

  2. Clear repair price

    You get the repair cost up front. If the furnace is unsafe or near the end of its life, we’ll tell you plainly.

  3. The fix

    Igniters, flame sensors, capacitors, limit switches, and thermostats are common fixes we resolve quickly so the heat comes back the same visit when possible.

  4. Confirm & protect

    We verify a clean, safe burn and even airflow, and recommend a seasonal tune-up so the next cold front isn’t a no-heat call.

Don’t ignore a heating warning sign

A small furnace issue in November is a no-heat emergency in January.

Because Abilene winters are mild for long stretches, it’s easy to ignore a furnace that’s slow to light or smells off the first time it runs. Then a hard freeze arrives, the system is asked to work for real, and a minor fault becomes a cold house overnight. Catching it early is almost always cheaper and far less stressful.

Wright Choice checks the safety items that matter — the heat exchanger, combustion, and flame sensing — not just whether warm air comes out. If your furnace is older or you’ve been nursing it along, a fall tune-up through the $165 Comfort Plan is the cheapest insurance against a January breakdown.

Frequently asked questions

Abilene heating repair questions.

What Big Country homeowners ask when the heat goes out.

My furnace stopped working — can you come out fast?

Yes. Wright Choice prioritizes no-heat calls during Abilene cold snaps. Call (325) 603-6365 and let us know it’s an urgent no-heat situation so we can get you on the schedule quickly.

Why is my furnace blowing cold air?

Common causes include a failed igniter or flame sensor, a thermostat set to ‘fan on,’ low gas pressure, or a safety limit shutting the burners down. A Wright Choice diagnostic identifies which before any parts are replaced.

Do you service heat pumps too?

Yes. Wright Choice services both gas furnaces and electric heat pumps, including defrost problems and systems running on auxiliary heat too often.

Is it safe to keep running a furnace that smells or short-cycles?

Not reliably. A burning smell, short cycling, or repeated shutdowns can point to a safety or combustion issue. Turn it off and call (325) 603-6365 so a technician can check the heat exchanger and combustion before you keep using it.
