Wondering why you’re not getting warmth from your furnace on a cold winter day? You and your family can see each other’s breath and you dread…simply dread what it will cost you to replace your furnace.
In this moment of panic, relax…the issue could simply be that you need a new furnace igniter.
What is a furnace igniter exactly?
The purpose of the igniter, on your furnace, is to automatically light the gas for the pilot light or main
burners.
There are two ways this is accomplished:
Spark Ignition in Euclid
The igniter is a small metal nub surrounded by a ceramic insulator. A spark is caused when the igniter receives an electrical jolt and a flame ignites the gas. The electrical circuit is ceased as the furnace is now lit.
Hot Surface Ignition in Euclid
This is more common on newer high-efficiency furnaces. This method usesa ceramic igniter and the furnace control supplies power to the igniter causing it to heat up. Once the igniter is glowing brightly with heat, the gas is turned on. After the flame sensor senses heat, the furnace
control turns the power off to the igniter.
When this igniter goes bad, whether it’s a spark or hot surface ignition, the gas line no longer receives fuel and thus you feel no heat. Diagnosing these issues will save you money and time.

Andrew came out and inspectioned my furnace to make sure it's ready for the upcoming Cleveland Ohio winter. He showed me the parts that needed replaced and explained what those parts do. Then he went over different options for financing.

I had a great experience with Shaun. He was professional, knowledgeable, and clearly knew his stuff. He quickly diagnosed the issue, explained everything clearly, and completed the repair efficiently. What stood out most was his expertise and attention to detail. It’s not often you find someone who is both highly skilled and genuinely committed to providing excellent service. I highly recommend Shaun to anyone. I will definitely use his services again in the future. Thank you for the outstanding work!

We contacted Arco Home Services for plumbing repairs. Jacob Adams was our tech. Jacob showed up on time and gave us an estimate for the multiple items we wanted done. He was professional, knowledgeable, and personable. He explained all steps and issues that were encountered and spent close to a day and a half completing the many repairs we requested. He knew what he was doing and worked diligently to make sure that the work was done timely and correctly. I can say it was a pleasure to have him complete the work we needed which included installing a new utility tub with new faucets and shut off valves, new bathroom faucet, installing a new sink with faucet and all plumbing in the second bathroom, repairing a toilet flange and reseating the toilet along with multiple other time consuming items to bring the plumbing in our older home into good working order. I can highly recommend Jacob's work and would ask for him again if I needed any additional repairs done. Thank you Jacob for a job well done.
