Furnace repair is a cold night call. The heat quits after dark, or the wall heater pilot will not stay lit. Wright Flow Plumbing and Heating works on gas forced air furnaces, wall furnaces, gas wall heaters and floor furnaces. Call (505) 306-8285 and tell us what the heater is doing.
We are based in Edgewood and work Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Corrales, the East Mountains and about 70 miles around. Heating repair and plumbing sit under one company here, for homes, rentals and small commercial buildings. Boiler, baseboard and radiant floor heat falls under boiler repair, and ductless units under mini split repair.

Many wall heaters and older furnaces use a standing pilot. A pilot that will not stay lit often points at the thermocouple. Newer furnaces light with a hot surface igniter, and a flame sensor proves the flame is there. A cracked igniter leaves the burners dark, and a dirty sensor shuts them off seconds after they light.
A furnace that runs a few minutes, shuts off and starts again is short cycling. A clogged filter is a common cause, because the furnace runs hot until the limit switch cuts the burners. A dirty flame sensor can look much the same. We check the filter first, then the sensor and the switch.
Burners that light with no blower point at the blower motor, its capacitor or the control board. A blower that runs while only cold air comes out usually means the burners are not lighting. Then we look at the igniter, the gas valve and the board. A thermostat that stopped calling for heat can look like a dead furnace too.
Gas furnaces are rated for elevation, and the maker publishes the high altitude adjustment. Edgewood sits near 6,700 feet. A furnace never adjusted for altitude can run poorly. When one keeps acting up, we check its setup against the maker's instructions.
By Census estimates, about three Albuquerque homes in four heat with utility gas. About one Edgewood home in six heats with propane. In Cedar Crest and Sandia Park, fewer than one home in ten has utility gas. We work on heaters that run on either fuel.
Around Edgewood we expect cold snaps near minus 20, and storms usually bring heater calls. In February 2011, Albuquerque lows hit 7 below zero, and gas utilities cut service to over 30,000 New Mexico customers. Homes in Bernalillo and Placitas were among them, and each had to be relit by hand. Some rural communities in northern New Mexico went days without heat.
If you smell gas, leave the house first. Call the gas utility, or your propane supplier, from outside. Then call us for the repair. Leaks in the piping itself fall under gas line installation and repair.
Carbon monoxide, or CO, has no smell or color. The Consumer Product Safety Commission counts about 170 deaths a year from CO made by consumer products other than cars. Furnaces and room heaters are among the sources. The commission advises a professional heating inspection every year and CO alarms on every level and outside sleeping areas.
A yearly heating service checks the furnace before the cold makes it work hard. We clean and test the burners, the igniter or pilot and the flame sensor. We look over the flue and venting for blockages, corrosion and loose joints, then check the filter and safeties. We finish by running a full heating cycle and watching it.
