If your Brilliant heating bill suddenly climbs, your system is losing efficiency. Common issues include blocked filters, leaky ducts, thermostat misreads, or aging parts straining against cold Ohio River air. Honest Fix’s $99 diagnostic or $109 tune-up locates the cause fast—so you can stop paying for wasted energy this winter.
Brilliant’s location along the Ohio River means cold air pools quickly on winter nights. Older homes near Market Street and new builds off State Route 7 face the same challenge—constant moisture and wind exposure that strain heating systems. When a utility bill spikes 40 percent or more, it’s usually a sign of system inefficiency. Honest Fix technicians measure airflow, duct sealing, and combustion efficiency to uncover the source before further energy loss.
Clogged filters or collapsed duct sections cause weak airflow and long run times. In basements near the river, condensation and rust often worsen leaks. Honest Fix uses static-pressure testing to pinpoint those restrictions so air moves freely again—cutting unnecessary runtime and fuel use.
A thermostat off by two degrees can keep your furnace running for hours unnecessarily. Smart thermostats in neighborhoods near Brilliant Elementary sometimes lose calibration or Wi-Fi sync. Honest Fix recalibrates sensors under live operation to ensure accurate readings and consistent temperature control.
Once a furnace or heat pump passes the 12-year mark, efficiency steadily drops. Honest Fix offers replacement audits with exact quotes—not estimates—backed by the Lifetime Trust Shield: 15-year labor coverage and a one-year energy-savings guarantee.
Yes. Cold, damp air along the river pulls heat from ducts faster, especially in uninsulated crawl spaces.
Annually—ideally before December—to keep airflow clear and sensors calibrated for peak winter performance.
