We've called Orion twice now (at 2 different places ) after our AC went out. Both times they came out on the same day and fixed the issue. Yuri is extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and happy to explain what the issues are. I will definitely call them again next time our AC needs service.

Hollywood Hills, Los Angeles, CA

They gave me an honest appraisal without charging for unnecessary tests, and did the installation quickly, in the middle of an epic heat wave. They might be newer than some of the other folks around, but they are building a stellar and well-deserved reputation. Don’t hesitate!

Signs Your Furnace Needs Repair


Furnace problems rarely come out of nowhere, they usually give you warning signs first. Watch for these:

  • Your furnace turns on but blows cold or lukewarm air
  • The system short cycles, turns on and off repeatedly without completing a heating cycle
  • Unusual noises. Banging, rattling, squealing, or rumbling when the furnace runs
  • A yellow or flickering burner flame instead of a steady blue flame
  • You notice a burning smell when the system kicks on
  • Your carbon monoxide detector has triggered. Treat this as an emergency, leave the home, and call 911 before calling anyone else
  • Some rooms heat normally while others stay cold
  • Your energy bills have gone up without a change in usage
  • The furnace runs constantly but your home never reaches the set temperature
  • Your pilot light keeps going out

If you’re experiencing any of these issues, don’t wait. A furnace that’s struggling is working harder than it should and putting additional wear on components that are already under stress. If your system is beyond repair, professional furnace installation can help restore reliable heating and improve your home’s energy efficiency.

Our Furnace Repair Services in La Crescenta

Furnace Diagnostic

We start every job with a complete diagnostic. Our technician will identify what’s wrong, explain it in plain language, and give you a fixed price before any repair work begins. Igniter and Pilot Light Repair

A faulty igniter or pilot light is one of the most common causes of a furnace that won’t start or keeps shutting down. We test, repair, or replace ignition components to get your system firing reliably.

Heat Exchanger Inspection and Repair

A cracked heat exchanger is a serious safety issue. It can allow combustion gases, including carbon monoxide, to enter your living space. We inspect heat exchangers thoroughly and give you an honest assessment of the system’s condition and your options.

Blower Motor Repair and Replacement

A failing blower motor causes weak airflow, uneven heating, and overheating in the heat exchanger. We diagnose motor issues and repair or replace the motor to restore proper airflow.

Thermostat Repair and Calibration

A miscalibrated or malfunctioning thermostat can cause short cycling, inconsistent temperatures, and unnecessary wear on your furnace. We test and repair or replace thermostats, including smart thermostat installations.

Gas Valve Repair

A faulty gas valve can prevent the furnace from lighting or cause it to run erratically. We test gas valve operation and replace the component when needed.

Flame Sensor Cleaning and Replacement

A dirty or failed flame sensor causes the furnace to light and then immediately shut off. This is a common issue and often a straightforward fix.

Limit Switch Repair

A tripped or failed limit switch causes the furnace to shut down as a safety measure. We diagnose whether the switch itself has failed or whether an underlying overheating issue triggered it.

Electrical and Control Board Repair

From failed control boards to wiring faults and blown fuses, we diagnose and repair the electrical components that keep your furnace running safely and reliably.

Furnace Tune Up and Safety Inspection

If your furnace hasn’t been serviced in a while, a tune up and safety inspection can catch developing problems before they leave you without heat.

Furnace Repair FAQ, La Crescenta, CA

How much does furnace repair cost in La Crescenta?

Furnace repair costs vary depending on what’s wrong. Common fixes like flame sensor cleaning or igniter replacement are generally less expensive than component replacements like a blower motor or control board. We give you a fixed price after diagnosis, before any work begins.

Cold air from a running furnace usually points to an ignition failure, a tripped limit switch, a gas supply issue, or a problem with the heat exchanger. Our technician will run a full diagnostic to pinpoint the cause

Yes. A yellow or flickering flame instead of a steady blue flame can indicate incomplete combustion, which may produce carbon monoxide. If you see a yellow flame, turn off the furnace and call us for a diagnostic. If your CO detector has triggered, leave the home first and call 911.

That depends on the age of the system, the cost of the repair, and its overall condition. If your furnace is more than 15 to 20 years old and facing a major repair, replacement often makes more financial sense. We’ll give you the honest comparison, not just the option that benefits us most.

Most furnace repairs are completed in a single visit. We carry common parts on our service vehicles to handle many repairs the same day. Parts that need to be ordered may require a follow-up visit.

Leave the home immediately. Call 911 and your gas utility before calling an HVAC company. Do not re-enter until emergency responders have cleared the space. Once the home is deemed safe, call us for a furnace inspection to identify the source.

We service all major residential furnace brands, including Carrier, Trane, Lennox, Goodman, Rheem, York, American Standard, and others. Not sure if we service your unit? Give us a call.
