Gas valve adjustment in San Jose, CA

Nur HVAC performed a gas valve adjustment on a furnace for this San Jose home, correcting the valve so the heating system fires and runs as it should. A gas valve adjustment is a service call rather than an install, and it is one that should always be left to a trained technician.

An adjustment may be needed in specific situations, and the right approach depends on the equipment and the underlying issue.

When a gas valve adjustment may be needed

• Not enough heat: a heating system that fails to keep up with demand can point to a valve that needs adjustment.
• Pilot light keeps going out: a pilot that will not stay lit is a common sign of a gas valve problem.
• Unusual noises or smells: odd sounds or odors coming from the furnace warrant a professional look.
• Equipment-specific process: the exact adjustment depends on the type of furnace or boiler and the specific issue being addressed.

Adjusting a gas valve takes specialized knowledge and should only be done by a professional technician, since doing it without proper training can be dangerous and may damage the equipment or property or put your safety at risk. Scheduling regular maintenance helps prevent problems, keeps the system running safely and efficiently, extends equipment life, and reduces the risk of costly breakdowns. Nur HVAC carries out this kind of work and verifies safe operation before we consider the job complete.
