Local considerations
Long severe winters with a large oil and boiler stock make heating reliability the dominant concern. In Biddeford that determines whether heating calls here are combustion problems or refrigerant-cycle problems, and those need different parts on the truck.
A furnace that has sat idle through the Biddeford cooling season accumulates dust on the flame sensor. The resulting lockout after three ignition attempts reads like a failure but is far more often a cleaning job.

What to do while you wait
- Set the thermostat to off rather than leaving it calling for heat against a locked-out system.
- If you smell gas, leave the building first and call the gas utility or 911 from outside.
- Replace a loaded filter. Restricted airflow trips high-limit switches on furnaces.
- Close off unused rooms and keep anyone vulnerable in the warmest part of the house.

Biddeford HVAC questions
Can I run a space heater meanwhile?
Portable heaters carry their own fire risk and should never be left running unattended or near fabric. Never use a gas range or an outdoor appliance to heat a room, which is a direct carbon monoxide hazard.
Do I need a carbon monoxide alarm?
If any gas appliance runs in the home, yes. Carbon monoxide is colourless and odourless, and a working alarm near sleeping areas is the only reliable warning. If one sounds, leave the building and call 911 from outside.
Do you work on boilers in Biddeford?
Yes, where a provider covering your ZIP code handles them. Boiler faults run to pressure loss, circulator pumps, expansion tanks and zone valves, which is a different skill set from forced-air work. Say so when you call.
Why does my furnace smell when it first runs?
A brief dusty smell on the first run of the season is normal as dust burns off the heat exchanger. A persistent burning smell, or any electrical smell, is not. Shut it off and call.
What if I smell gas?
Leave the building first, then call the gas utility or 911 from outside. Do not operate light switches, thermostats or phones on your way out. Call us afterwards, once the utility has made the property safe.
