Few things feel worse than waking up to a cold house and a furnace that clicks, hums, and refuses to light. Ashley HVAC Services handles Gas Furnace Repairs for homes in North Wilkesboro, NC, and surrounding towns such as Wilkesboro, Sparta, Taylorsville, and Yadkinville. We'll figure out what's keeping your furnace from firing up and get it running safely again, so you can get back to a warm, comfortable home.
Based in North Wilkesboro, North Carolina, Ashley HVAC Services is a veteran-owned HVAC company that has served the Foothills since 2024 under owner Tyler Ashley. The company repairs natural gas and propane furnaces for residential and light commercial customers throughout Wilkes, Surry, and Watauga counties. Its gas furnace repair work covers flame sensors, hot surface igniters, inducer motors, pressure switches, gas valves, blower motors, limit switches, and control boards on all major furnace brands, with NATE and EPA certifications and a 1-year workmanship warranty behind each job.
Gas furnace problems tend to announce themselves. You might hear the furnace click over and over without lighting, feel cold air blowing from the vents, or notice the system starting and stopping every few minutes. Some homeowners smell something burning, hear a loud bang when the burners light, or spot a blinking light on the control board inside the furnace cabinet.
Behind most of these symptoms sits a small part that's worn out or dirty. A flame sensor coated in residue can't confirm the burners lit, so the furnace shuts the gas off as a safety measure. Hot surface igniters crack with age, inducer motors wear out, and pressure switches fail or get tripped by a clogged vent or condensate line. A dirty air filter can also make the furnace overheat, which trips the limit switch and shuts the burners down before your home warms up.
Our repair process starts with the furnace's own diagnostic code, since that blinking light tells us where to look first. Next, we clean and test the flame sensor, check the igniter, inducer motor, and pressure switch, inspect the burners and flame, and look over the venting to make sure exhaust gases leave your home the way they should. Using a meter, we verify voltage and amperage at key components. After we find the problem, you'll get a clear explanation and a price before any repair begins.
With the repair finished, your furnace lights reliably, runs through complete heating cycles, and keeps every room comfortable through the cold months. You'll also have peace of mind knowing the burners, venting, and safety controls are working the way the manufacturer intended.
Getting a gas furnace repaired by a trained technician pays off long after the house warms back up.
Gas furnaces rely on safety switches and proper venting to protect your household. A professional repair confirms those safeguards work correctly, which matters a lot for carbon monoxide safety.
Cleaning or replacing a failing flame sensor or igniter ends the frustrating cycle of your furnace lighting, shutting down, and trying again.
A furnace with clean burners and healthy airflow burns fuel more efficiently, so your gas or propane goes further each month.
Fixing small issues early keeps them from putting extra stress on the blower motor and heat exchanger, two of the priciest parts to replace.

Yes. Many homes in Alleghany and Ashe counties rely on propane, and we repair propane furnaces just as we do natural gas units. We'll diagnose the issue, explain your options, and make sure the burners and safety controls work properly before we leave.
A dirty flame sensor is the most common reason a gas furnace lights and then shuts off after a few seconds. A clogged filter or blocked vent can also trip a safety switch, so check your filter first and give us a call if the problem continues.
Once a year is a good rule of thumb, ideally in early fall before the High Country's first hard freeze. An annual tune-up helps catch worn igniters, dirty sensors, and venting problems before they leave you without heat.
A furnace that clicks without lighting usually has an ignition problem rather than an immediate danger, since modern furnaces shut off the gas when they can't confirm a flame. Still, you shouldn't ignore it, because repeated failed ignitions can point to a bad igniter, gas valve, or control board that needs professional attention.
