Heating in Hartford: what's different
Heating work in Hartford follows the local climate. Heating is the main load in cold climates. Furnaces and boilers run for months, so ignition, venting, heat exchanger and carbon monoxide checks before winter are important.
A common Hartford pattern: oil-fired boilers. Many homes still burn heating oil, which requires annual burner cleaning, nozzle and filter changes and tank inspections. Another: multi-family heating. Triple-deckers often have three separate systems sharing a chimney, so flue and carbon monoxide checks matter.
The heating services Hartford homeowners ask for most are furnace Repair, carbon Monoxide & Gas Safety, boiler & Radiant Heat. No heat, ignition failure, short cycling and pilot or flame sensor problems.
The City of Hartford's Licenses and Inspections Division issues mechanical permits, and Connecticut licenses heating, cooling and sheet metal contractors through the Department of Consumer Protection.

What should I do if my carbon monoxide alarm goes off?+
Get everyone outside to fresh air and call 911 or your gas utility's emergency line. Do not go back in until responders say it is safe, then have the heating system inspected.
Why does my furnace turn on and then shut off?+
A dirty flame sensor, a blocked vent or intake, a clogged filter or an overheating heat exchanger are common causes. The control board's blink code helps a tech narrow it down.
