Signs You Need Furnace Repair
If your furnace is showing any of these warning signs, it’s time to call in a professional:
- Inconsistent Heating – Some rooms are too warm while others stay cold.
- Strange Noises – Banging, rattling, or whistling sounds could indicate loose or failing components.
- Higher Energy Bills – A sudden increase in heating costs could mean your furnace is working harder than it should.
- Frequent Cycling – If your furnace turns on and off too frequently, it may have a faulty thermostat or airflow issue.
- Unusual Odors – Musty or burning smells could signal a dangerous problem that needs immediate attention.
- Weak or No Airflow – A clogged filter, failing blower motor, or blocked duct could be restricting airflow.
Ignoring these early warning signs can lead to costly breakdowns and emergency repairs. Call The Waterworks for expert furnace service before small issues turn into major problems.

Very responsive, on-time and kept us informed throughout entire process.
We have a maintenance plan with the same technician for our home and a condo. They are efficient and easy to schedule.
The technician seemed very thorough, explaining everything he checked. He showed pictures of the unit and what he checked and mentioned things to look for. My husband was impressed with his work ethic.
Called at 9am because furnace was not working properly. They had it fixed and running within 5 hours of my phone call. Reasonable price. Great service.
They called before the appointment to confirm which is awesome! Efficient, clean, and professional.
Cory did an excellent job maintaining our heat pump and humidifier.
Very good company with good people trying to do the right things for their customers.
Extremely kind and quick emergency service. I really appreciate the service on a Sunday after a big snow storm! The extra effort they went to in sending me a bio and picture of my technician really solidified the quality service and my comfort level during a time of high anxiety.
Jonle was responsive to our emergency situation. Service tech was thorough and took all steps necessary to solve the problem.
We have been using Jonle for 20+ years. Technician (Mark Johnston) performed our annual furnace maintenance this past week. He was on time, courteous and thorough. Once complete, Mark showed us pictures of the inside of our furnace and explained the services he performed, including changing the filter (I provided) and the humidifier pad. Overall we were pleased as always.
Service Technician Tim Feldman does a great job in maintaining the equipment. Always friendly and has good answers for any question. Maintenance contract went up 18% in 2025.
Todd was great to work with. He was really straightforward about the options we had and what would be the best deal.
Anthony was very knowledgeable about my issue. Highly recommend this company for plumbing issues.
We had a great experience with Travis, the Waterworks drain tech that cleared my septic tank clog. My first call to the main number resulted in getting emergency service scheduled, I was texted technician's information and ETA, and the work was done quickly and professionally. Travis made several good proactive recommendations on which I will certainly follow up. I did pay an Overtime charge but it could have been worst overall.
I have had our furnace/heat pump check-ups and service done by JonLe (merged with Tri-County) for over 20 years and counting. From the HVAC installers (2/3 units replaced over these years). I have my summer and winter services BOTH done annually, using your Annual Service Agreement. Many of my services have been performed by Technical Engineer Steve and he has "ALWAYS" done professional jobs. He's great at trouble shooting, explaining and a "GREAT ASSET" to the JonLe Company; great skilled professional people with people skills is always a plus for any Company. I have recommended JonLe to family and friends that have also had great experiences. From Dave, Dennis, etc who installed my latest HVAC unit in recent years unit to Steve you have quality experienced staff. Again, Steve is a GREAT asset to your Company and one reason, I have continued service with JonLe; and recommended your Company to family and friends. Other HVAC services constantly are trying to expand their business with less expensive deals, etc. but I have remained a satisfied loyal customer; feel very comfortable that our HVAC system is always in top condition. I do wish everyone at JonLe a GREAT end of year Holiday's too; stay safe and well!
This company has helped me both with my business and home needs. They've always been prompt, respectful and done a great job. I also find that their prices are quite fair. Highly recommend them!
Professional and their work, courtesy. They live up to their name. I got small plumbing done.
I live in a neighborhood that has mature trees and the roots of those trees keep plugging up my sewer lines. Waterworks comes out every year to clear the sewer lines and they always do a great job and are very professional.
Everything is great! The desired results were accomplished. I can't take a picture of the inside of my pipi ,but the water seems to flow freely now. What more could I ask for?
We have the maintenance plan for our furnace and AC with Watereorks (which used to be Hetter) for the last 10 years . There staff are extremely professional, courteous and technically competent.. very happy with their services and highly recommend them .
I have used JonLe Heating and Cooling for a number of years at me previous residence and now at my current location. They have always given us the highest quality service and professionalism from installation of a entire hvac system to yearly maintenance. I have always highley recommended them to friends and family.
We called Jonle because our furnace was not producing much heat. A technician came by the same afternoon and fixed the problem. He was professional, courteous and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to explain the problem to us and answered all of our questions. Highly recommend! Good folks!
Excellent service, prompt and professional. Performed quickly, cleanly and were communicative throughout. Will absolutely use again.
My kitchen sink clogged up last night and Waterworks was able to get it taken care of today! Very grateful to get such a quick appointment. Thank you!
I had two jobs that needed to be done and both representatives were thorough and efficient. Explained everything to me and will be sending me information about upcoming jobs. Was very pleased with their work. They went above and beyond.
Great experience. I called Jonle because the previous owner of the home had their maintenance done through them, and figured if anyone would know my furnace it would be them. The tech (Tim Feldman) called roughly 30 minutes before arrival. He was friendly and was able to diagnose the issue with my furnace quickly and able to explain to me what was wrong and what the fix was. He was able to get my furnace running properly quickly, which is a life saver during the winter!
We have used Jonle to preform our annual HVAC maintenance for several years and to install our new furnace and AC. They are very professional, knowledgeable and dependable. I would definitely recommend them!
JonLe installed our furnace, house A/C, and an additional A/C unit for the upstairs bedroom. They come annually to do a checkup. Friendly employees, professional work, excellent service.
Start to finish they were with me all of the way. Everything happened when they said it would. All of the technicians were pleasant to deal with. Always a joy to call them when I need help.
Had a sewer line back up and they were at the house in 30 minutes to help me.
Very rarely in homeownership is the solution to a problem the $20 part. More often than not it is the $2000 option. After a strong sewer, gas smell in our basement we would have been very happy to pay thousands of dollars for a permanent solution, but our technician from waterworks was able to diagnose the issue. It turned out to be a very small plastic part that had failed. He replaced it the same day and our issues resolved immediately. We will be waterworks customers for life after that kind of service and honesty. Genuinely exceeded expectations and established trust! Well done.
Jake came out during the service window and quickly addressed our problems. He got the work dint quickly and even added something to the list.
What a wonderful experience dealing with The Waterworks again for my plumbing repair. It’s always stressful when you have a leak but having Colin come out always reduces that stress !!! Colin is such an awesome young man, he’s friendly , professional and knows how to diagnose and find the problem. He always approaches thing in the best interest of his customers and leaves things as neatly and clean as possible… Kudos to Colin and thanks for getting my plumbing repair done quickly and professionally 👍
Mr. Sheppard did a FANTASTIC job. He took his time, was happy, friendly and respectful he explained what he was doing, explained our humidifier, air cleaner and thermostat (we just moved into a new home and no papers were left.) We would like to have him our system in the spring.
I really like Jonlee because of their professionalism during my regular seasonal checks for ac/ furnace . I purchased my furnace from them years ago and I was pleased with them giving me comparable products and prices to choose from with a patient and seamless experience. Jonlee has always shown me and my home respect by arriving on time and their cleanliness.They always arrive with shoe covers . Their service is reliable and costs are reasonable which has the same furnace running for years.
