One of the most common heating repair issues we encounter in Burbank homes is a faulty thermocouple or flame sensor on gas furnaces. The thermocouple is a safety device that detects whether the pilot light is lit. If it malfunctions, it will shut off the gas supply, preventing the furnace from igniting. On modern furnaces with electronic ignition, the flame sensor performs a similar function. When it becomes coated with carbon buildup, it fails to sense the flame and shuts off the gas. This results in the furnace cycling on and off without producing heat — a frustrating problem that many homeowners mistake for a major breakdown. Our technicians can quickly test and replace a faulty thermocouple or clean/replace a dirty flame sensor, restoring heat to your home within an hour.

Another frequent issue in Burbank homes is a malfunctioning thermostat. Many homeowners don’t realize that thermostat problems can mimic furnace failures. A miscalibrated thermostat may not call for heat when the temperature drops, or a dead battery or wiring issue can prevent communication with the furnace. We’ll test your thermostat and replace it if needed, offering smart thermostat upgrades that allow remote control and energy usage monitoring. For homes with older furnaces, we also frequently encounter pilot light issues. A pilot light that won’t stay lit is often caused by a dirty or faulty thermocouple, but it can also be due to a draft from a cracked heat exchanger or improper venting.

For heat pump systems — common in newer Burbank homes and renovations — the most frequent repair we perform is addressing refrigerant leaks. Heat pumps rely on refrigerant to transfer heat from outdoors to indoors. When refrigerant levels drop due to a leak, the system loses heating capacity and may develop ice on the outdoor unit. This is often mistaken for a defrost cycle issue. Our technicians use electronic leak detectors to pinpoint the exact location of the leak — typically at brazed joints, Schrader valves, or coil connections. We repair the leak, then evacuate and recharge the system to manufacturer specifications. Without the proper charge, your heat pump will struggle to keep your home warm and will consume more energy.

Another common repair for heat pumps is a failed reversing valve. The reversing valve directs refrigerant flow to switch the system between heating and cooling modes. If the valve becomes stuck, your system may be stuck in cooling mode — blowing cold air when you need heat. We can diagnose a faulty reversing valve and replace it. We also frequently repair or replace outdoor fan motors, which can fail due to weather exposure or age.
