Riverside Heating Air Plumbing repairs gas furnaces and heat pumps for homes in Alma, AR. Alma heating calls go to our Van Buren office on South 4th Street, a short drive west on I-40, and the phone is answered 24/7. The technician makes sure the furnace is safe to run before recommending any parts.
Every furnace repair visit starts with safety. The technician checks that the furnace has enough air, the exhaust goes outside, the burners light cleanly, and the air coming out gets warm enough. Parts that often wear out include the ignitor (the part that lights the gas), the flame sensor (a small rod that confirms the burner lit), the pressure switch (a safety switch that checks the exhaust is venting), and the blower (the fan that moves warm air through the house). You hear what was found and your options before any work starts.
Before the visit, make sure the thermostat is set to heat, replace a dirty filter, and check that the vents are open. If you smell gas, leave the house and call the gas company from outside before calling us. If the furnace keeps trying to start and failing, stop restarting it and call.

Heat pumps and electric heat in Alma
Not every Alma home heats with gas. Some have a heat pump with electric heat strips (electric heating coils used as backup heat) that kick in on the coldest days. The same technicians work on those systems. If a heat pump is running but the house keeps getting colder, or the outdoor unit is buried in ice, call and describe what you see.
Repair or replace?
An older furnace that keeps breaking down, or a crack in the heat exchanger (the metal wall that keeps flames and exhaust away from the air you breathe), can make replacement the better choice. Our technician can help you decide whether to repair or replace your system, and whether a heat pump or furnace is the better fit. When it’s time for a whole new system, our crew handles AC installation in Alma too.
Booking a visit: what to have ready
Have the thermostat and furnace easy to reach, pets secured, and a quick note about when the heat started acting up. Old repair receipts help. Call the Van Buren office any time, or book a routine visit online.
