The service was good.Aiden was very good. It’s just they said they were on there way 2hrs and30 min they finally arrived. Waited all afternoon
The 2 service men were on time, assessed the problem, diagnosed the issue, came up with a plan and offered several solutions for fixing our mini split. They took pictures, tried clearing out mice debris , attempted to get the outside machine to work ( apex 2 hours) Alas a no go, so we decided to scrap it and go with baseboard heater for the room over the garage. Up front information and pricing , no nonsense. Affable techs and so far great service.

Furnace Repair FAQs for New Bedford Homeowners

Why won’t my furnace turn on?

This could be caused by anything from a faulty thermostat and tripped breaker to a malfunctioning pilot light or safety switch. A professional inspection is the best way to find and fix the problem quickly.

Why does my furnace keep turning on and off?

Frequent cycling, or “short cycling,” often indicates an issue with airflow, thermostat calibration, or system sizing. It’s important to address this early to prevent damage and higher energy bills.

What should I do if my furnace stops working suddenly?

Check your thermostat settings, air filter, and circuit breaker first. If the issue isn’t obvious, contact GEM for fast, reliable service. We offer same-day repairs to restore your comfort.

Why is my furnace making strange noises?

Unusual sounds like banging, squealing, or rattling typically mean something inside your unit is loose or worn out. Have it checked right away to prevent further damage or system failure.

How long does a furnace repair usually take in New Bedford?

Most repairs can be completed in just a few hours, depending on the issue. GEM’s fully stocked trucks and experienced technicians allow us to complete most fixes in a single visit.
