Local considerations
The flue and venting path for any Hattiesburg combustion appliance should be confirmed clear before the heating season. A blockage anywhere in the path is a carbon monoxide hazard regardless of how well the appliance itself runs.
Short heating seasons leave burners and flame sensors fouled after months of inactivity. In Hattiesburg that makes the heating season a test of whatever deferred maintenance the summer covered up. Equipment that held on through a mild spell often cannot manage a sustained cold stretch.

Hattiesburg HVAC questions
Do you work on boilers in Hattiesburg?
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.
Why are my upstairs radiators cold?
Usually trapped air or a circulation problem rather than a failed boiler. Bleeding radiators resolves some of it. If pressure keeps dropping after bleeding, there is a leak somewhere in the loop worth finding.
How do you decide which provider gets my call?
By ZIP code first, then by who is accepting calls. We publish no ratings and sell no placement. During a cold snap the set of available providers in Forrest County narrows considerably.
