Furnace lights then shuts down after a few seconds

Heating and air conditioning service built around Fort Wayne
Whether the complaint is weak airflow upstairs, a furnace that will not stay lit, or an outdoor unit that hums but never starts, the process is the same — a proper diagnostic, a written price, then the repair.
A large share of the equipment we service in Fort Wayne was installed by a builder to a minimum spec. That usually means an undersized return, a cheap filter rack and a condenser sitting close to a wall.
We recommend two maintenance visits a year in Indiana: one before June through August and one before October through April. It is the single highest-return thing a homeowner can do for equipment life.

Fort Wayne46802 HVAC questions, answered
Is my system low on refrigerant, or is it leaking?
Refrigerant does not get "used up" the way fuel does. If your charge is low, there is a leak somewhere — usually at a flare connection, a schrader core or the evaporator coil. We locate and repair the leak rather than simply topping up the charge, because a top-up alone will fail again.
What does a new system cost in Fort Wayne?
A complete residential replacement in the 46802 area generally lands between $6,000 and $13,000 installed, depending on capacity, efficiency rating and how much ductwork has to be modified. We always perform a Manual J load calculation first, because an oversized unit costs more to buy and runs worse than a correctly sized one.
Are your technicians licensed and insured?
Every technician dispatched into Fort Wayne is licensed, insured and background-checked. We can provide proof of insurance on request before the visit if you would like it on file.
What causes water to leak from the indoor unit?
Almost always a blocked condensate drain line, a failed drain pan float switch, or a frozen coil melting faster than the pan can handle. In Fort Wayne we see algae and dust clogging drain lines constantly during June through August. It is a fast fix but ignoring it ends in ceiling damage.
Do you charge extra for nights, weekends or holidays?
No. Our pricing in Indiana is the same at 2am on a holiday as it is at 2pm on a Tuesday. Emergency calls are dispatched the same way as scheduled calls and carry no overtime premium.
Why is my furnace short cycling?
Short cycling in Fort Wayne most often comes from a restricted airflow path — a loaded filter, a closed register, an undersized return — or from an oversized unit. It can also be a failing flame sensor or a pressure switch fault. We measure static pressure and temperature rise before concluding anything, because guessing at this one is expensive.
