Return to: Home NewsLocal Technicians See Increase in Emergency Heating Calls - Here's What Homeowners Should Do NowPhiladelphia, PA - November 2025 - As temperatures drop rapidly across the Philadelphia region, HVAC technicians at Cool-Aid Co are reporting a sharp rise in emergency heating repair calls. Homeowners in Philadelphia, Bucks County, Montgomery County, Delaware County, and New Castle County are being urged to take proactive steps now to avoid costly breakdowns and unsafe heating conditions this winter. According to the Cool-Aid Co service team, most recent emergency calls involve no-heat situations, furnace ignition failures, blower motor issues, clogged filters, and older heating systems struggling during the first major cold snap. Technicians warn that postponing routine maintenance increases the risk of mid-season failures - especially when temperatures reach their lowest. "The first cold wave triggered a huge spike in no-heat calls." "Our technicians have been running nonstop since the temperatures dropped," said a senior technician at Cool-Aid Co. "Most of these emergencies could have been prevented with a simple pre-season inspection." What Homeowners Should Do Immediately 1. Schedule a Heating System Inspection An annual tune-up is the most effective way to prevent sudden breakdowns. Cool-Aid Co technicians check for failing components, safety hazards, and performance issues that can cause emergencies later. 2. Replace Dirty Air Filters Clogged filters block airflow, increase energy usage, and often cause systems to shut down or overheat. 3. Check Thermostat Settings & Batteries Surprisingly, many emergency calls stem from thermostat malfunctions or dead batteries. 4. Pay Attention to Strange Noises or Odors Banging, squealing, burning smells, or delayed ignition sounds indicate a potential failure. Homeowners should turn the system off and call for service immediately. 5. Keep All Vents & Returns Clear Obstructed vents reduce heating efficiency and can stress or overheat the unit. 6. Monitor Energy Bills A sudden jump in utility costs often signals that a heating system is working inefficiently or beginning to fail.
