Furnace repair in Torrance
Gas heat checked for safety, repaired and run through a full cycle.
Seven in ten Torrance homes heat with gas, so a furnace that will not light is the most common winter call.
By the Census count, 69.2% of Torrance homes heat with utility gas from SoCalGas and 26.6% with electricity. Winters are mild, a January mean low of 47.0°F at Torrance Airport, so a furnace may run only a few weeks a year. That long idle time is what wears out the ignition parts.
Winter calls we get
Burner lights and drops out
A dirty flame sensor; cleaned or replaced in one visit.
Inducer hums, no flame
A pressure switch tripping on a blocked vent or a split hose.
Nothing at all
Thermostat batteries, a blown control fuse or the door switch.
Gas smell
Leave the house and call SoCalGas first; we repair the appliance once it is safe.
Floor furnaces and wall heaters
Older houses in Old Torrance and Walteria sometimes still have floor or wall furnaces rather than a ducted system. We service both. Where a furnace is beyond repair, a heat pump on SCE power can take over the heating and add cooling. For cooling faults see AC repair; for a full replacement see AC installation. Questions first? Send us the details.

Heating questions from Torrance
Why does my Torrance furnace fail on the first cold night?
After months off, flame sensors and igniters are the usual faults. A quick autumn check avoids most of it.
Do you repair wall and floor furnaces?
Yes, along with ducted forced-air furnaces.
Should I replace my gas furnace with a heat pump?
If the furnace and air conditioner are both old, often yes. We check the electrical panel first.
No heat? Tell us what the furnace is doing and we will book a visit.
Warm again, safely
Call us, or send the form and we will call you back, every day, 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.
