Orion HVAC customer review
San Marino, CA

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.

Orion HVAC customer review
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 Heating System Needs Repair

 

Heating problems in the Valley tend to show up gradually, often because the system sits unused for months and then gets turned on when the weather finally turns cold. Watch for these warning signs:

  • Your heater turns on but blows cold or lukewarm air
  • The system has short cycles. turns on and off repeatedly without completing a heating cycle
  • Unusual noises when the heater runs. Banging, rattling, squealing, or rumbling
  • Some rooms heat normally while others stay cold
  • Your heating system runs constantly but your home never reaches the set temperature
  • A burning smell when the system first kicks on, or a persistent smell that doesn’t go away
  • Your carbon monoxide detector has triggered, leave the home immediately and call 911 before calling anyone else
  • Your energy bills have jumped without a change in usage
  • The pilot light or igniter keeps failing
  • Your system simply won’t turn on

If you’re seeing any of these, don’t wait. A struggling heating system is working harder than it should and wearing down components that are already under stress. Regular HVAC maintenance can help identify potential issues early and keep your system running efficiently.

Our Heating Repair Services in Van Nuys

Igniter and Pilot Light Repair

A faulty igniter or pilot light is one of the most common reasons a heating system 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 on every furnace call and give you an honest assessment of the system’s condition.

Blower Motor Repair and Replacement

A failing blower motor causes weak airflow, uneven heating, and can trigger overheating shutdowns. We diagnose motor issues and repair or replace the component to restore proper airflow.

Thermostat Repair and Calibration

A miscalibrated or failed thermostat causes short cycling, temperature inconsistency, and unnecessary system wear. We test and repair or replace thermostats, including smart thermostat installations.

Gas Valve and Flame Sensor Repair

A faulty gas valve or dirty flame sensor can prevent your system from staying lit. These are common issues we diagnose and fix on heating calls throughout Van Nuys.

Control Board and Electrical Repair

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

Limit Switch Repair

A tripped or failed limit switch shuts the system down as a safety measure. We determine whether the switch itself has failed or whether an underlying overheating condition triggered it, and fix the actual cause.

Heating Repair FAQ, Van Nuys, CA

How much does heating repair cost in Van Nuys?

Heating repair costs vary depending on what’s wrong and what system you have. Common fixes like a flame sensor cleaning or igniter replacement are less expensive than a blower motor or control board replacement. We give you a fixed price after the diagnostic, before any repair work begins.

In most cases, yes. We offer same day service Monday through Saturday, 8am to 7pm. Call 323 736 3737 and we’ll get you on the schedule.

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 identify the cause.

A brief burning smell when you first turn on the heat for the season is often just dust burning off. A persistent burning smell, a smell that returns every time the heater runs, or any smell that’s unusual or sharp warrants a diagnostic call. Don’t ignore it.

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 safe, call us for a full heating system inspection.

That depends on the age of the system, the cost of the repair, and its overall condition. We give you the honest comparison, not just the option that generates more revenue for us.

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