Service Area
Schenectady
Schenectady has some of the oldest housing in the state, from the Stockade district along the Mohawk River to the early 1900s houses of the GE Realty Plot. Many of these homes still heat with cast iron radiators fed by steam or hot-water boilers, and central air was often added later through attic air handlers or ductless units.
Niskayuna
Most Niskayuna homes went up after the Second World War on forced-air gas furnaces with ductwork in the basement. Original duct runs, aging furnaces and air conditioners tied into that same blower are where most repairs start.
NiskayunaHeating and AC Questions
Why is my AC fan running but the compressor is not?
A weak or failed start capacitor, a pitted contactor, a compressor that overheated and tripped its internal overload, or a wiring fault at the outdoor disconnect. If the outdoor unit clicks and hums but the compressor never catches, the capacitor is the first part to test.
Why does my furnace smell like burning when it first turns on?
Dust that settled on the heat exchanger over the summer burns off in the first few cycles each fall, and that smell fades within a day. A smell that stays, or one like hot plastic or rubber, points to a failing blower motor or overheated wiring and needs a repair call.
Should I repair or replace my furnace or air conditioner?
Age, the part that failed and how often the system has broken down all matter. A failed capacitor, igniter or blower motor is a normal repair at any age. A cracked heat exchanger or a dead compressor on an older system is when replacement usually makes more sense.
