Don’t Ignore Burning Odors When Heating Your Home
You wouldn’t ignore any burning smells coming from the kitchen when you were preparing dinner for your family, would you? Why, then, would you ever ignore a burning odor coming from your home heating system? If you use a furnace to heat your home, a burning odor could be a sign that there is a potentially serious problem with your system. Fortunately for you, the heating professionals on our staff are here to handle any heating repairs that you may need.
It May Just Be Dust
Our summer seasons are pretty long around here. If you have your heating system maintained at the end of the heating season, rather than right before putting your heater back into rotation, then it is possible that dust can build up in your furnace. This may not be the most serious problem that you’ll ever encounter, but it can certainly lead to an unpleasant burning odor when you first fire up your furnace again. If the odor persists, though, it is unlikely that dust on the burner is to blame.
Or Your System May Be Overheating
Another issue, and one that could potentially lead to real system damages, is the overheating of your fan motor. If your air filters are seriously clogged up, then they may create too much airflow resistance for your furnace’s fan to handle comfortably. The result will be excessive strain on the fan motor, with still more serious problems to come. Don’t put your system at risk due to such issues.
Electrical Wiring May Also Be an Issue
Even gas furnaces use electricity in their operation, so the smell of burning plastic with any furnace, gas or electric, should be taken seriously. Burning wiring is a serious fire risk, after all. You shouldn’t put your system at risk, but it goes without saying that your safety should not be in jeopardy, either.

Zach Carlisle from Goettl Air Conditioning & Plumbing did an incredible job installing our new water heater. His exceptional professionalism, courtesy, and expertise made the entire process seamless.

I'm very impressed with Goetel ! We just started using them and so far so good!
Oh, and he even brought a Sadie dog toy for my pups! 😁

Stacy arrived today. He was super knowledgeable and interested in answering our questions (which were abundant). Very friendly and not in any hurry to leave. He took his time to explain what he was doing. He pointed out a dangerous situation with our surge protectors. We had fried wires! We ended up having them replaced right on the spot. We were so impressed with him that we will be requesting him next time we're due for our routine check up. Thank you,
Stacy!
James Jacobson was outstanding with his knowledge and took his time explaining every detail.
Julian and Devin arrived to do the Water Jetting and they were outstanding! I was impressed and I Highly Recommend them.

Daniel came out for a new issue and got it all handled in one visit. Love this company and their techs!














He explained, while he saw no immediate problems. what we might expect going forward, given the furnace's age and condition. After I asked about major component vs. whole-unit replacement, he provided a thorough explanation, and pricing, of options for us to consider.
Very good experience with Jef! Highly recommend!












This past week our service technician was Andrew Morgan and he is such a friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled technician. He spent time making sure the job was done correctly and he explained it in terms that I could understand. Not only is our unit functioning even better than before, I also gained knowledge of how the system works.













I highly recommend Goettl as this is the second time l've used them in less than a year. (2 seperate issues)... and I highly recommend them..anytime and anyday.
They have exceeded to top any expectations I could have ever had with any company.


Jerry also noticed our water pressure was low after flushing toilet then trying to wash hands in bathroom sink which were so he suggested a new pressure regulator as we have had a new better water conditioning system installed. We now have the best water pressure even when using a shower and kitchen sink faucet at the same time. Also Jerry is a master plumber and we appreciate his knowledge and experience. Will definitely call Goettl again when a plumber is needed.

Darean Guerra today. He arrived on time and took the time to explain what he was going to do. He was very knowledgeable which helped me trust what he was doing. He left his work area clean. I am very pleased with his work.




Now we have a new flange, installed correctly, and ready for the new toilet!







The company is installing a tankless heater and the customer service is outstanding.
I recommend Geottl to all!
