Change Your Filter

Your HVAC system’s filter works hard to improve your indoor air quality and protect your heater from debris that can lead to costly damage as it accumulates. Adequate airflow is also essential to your heater’s longevity and energy efficiency. A clogged or dirty filter can cause your energy bill to spike as your HVAC system has to work harder to maintain your indoor temperature preferences.


Check Your Heater Today

Why wait until the winter chill sets in? Check your heater now for any potential problems, and get ahead of the cold weather. While it can be tempting to put off having minor repairs done, doing so allows small, less expensive problems to escalate into far more costly ones.


The following signs are red flags that you need to contact Reliable Heating & Cooling for the best heater repair in Staten Island:

  • Difficulty turning the heater on 
  • Frequent adjustments to the thermostat 
  • Odd noises and odors 
  • Short-cycling
