Kensington residents rely on their heating appliances to keep warm during the winter seasons. Whether with stove, furnace, boiler, or heat pump, the heat supplied from a heating appliance is not just a comfort to homeowners but can become lifesaving on the coldest of nights. Kensington homeowners need reliable heating appliances to survive the winter, and Buric Heating and Air experts can help ensure mechanically sound heat sources to last all winter long.
The best way to guarantee a safe and warm season is by scheduling a maintenance inspection every year before the weather gets too cold. These inspections help alert homeowners to any potential problems before they cause a total breakdown in the middle of winter. With Buric Heating and Air, you will receive reliable and expert service for all of your heating maintenance, repair, or replacement needs.
Heating Services
Eventually, a heating appliance will need to be replaced no matter how well it is taken care of. Much like a vehicle, regular maintenance and tune-ups can help extend the lifespan of heating appliances for as long as possible before replacement. Professionally trained technicians at Buric will alert homeowners to any repairs needed during the inspection and explain what replacement options are available when necessary.

Maintenance
A yearly inspection from your local Buric expert will help your heating appliances last for their full average lifespans. Furnaces typically last 20 years, heat pumps 15 years, and fireplace inserts and stoves 15 to 20 years. Not only will regular maintenance help with longevity, but it also helps keep homeowners safe while their appliances are in operation, keeps appliances running at maximum efficiency, and protects internal parts from wearing out too fast.
During a tune-up, your Buric technician will complete a thorough internal inspection of your heating appliance, clean any dirty mechanics, and may perform some minor repairs on worn parts. These steps will help your unit run at peak performance throughout the season. Call the experts at Buric for an affordable and reliable heating tune-up near you.
Repair
While annual tune-ups help prevent many major repairs, some types of repairs are inevitable. Burnt wires and thermostats are fairly inexpensive to replace. Motor replacements, however, may not be worth repairing if the unit is already nearing the end of its lifespan.
Sometimes it is more worth it, in the long run, to replace the whole unit instead of paying for an extensive repair, or even continual repairs if more and more parts start to wear out in a short amount of time. A knowledgeable professional can help you determine the cost and benefits to repair versus replacement based on your individual circumstance.
Some common signs you may need repair are:
- Abnormally high energy bills.
- Poor airflow from vents when the unit is on.
- The unit is making strange noises or emits strange smells.
- The unit won’t turn on at all.
- The unit doesn’t adequately heat your home.
Replacement and Installation
When replacement is necessary, your local Kensington Buric professional can present to you various options based on your home and preferences. You can even choose to upgrade to a more efficient system or decide to install ducts if your home doesn’t currently include a duct HVAC system. No matter what you decide, we will provide you with an accurate estimate of the cost and replacement work needed.
If your heating appliance has never quite met your heating needs or you have recently built an addition to your home, you may need a system that supports a higher heating capacity. An overworked unit will increase energy bills, not provide enough heat, and will wear out faster. The professionals at Buric will measure your home and suggest replacement models based on what fits best in your environment.

Our 24-hour services are designed to assist anyone in need day or night.
