Electric Heater and Furnace Repair

Repairing Baseboard Heaters or Electric Furnaces

Baseboard heaters and electric furnaces rely on stable electrical connections to provide consistent indoor warmth. When they stop producing heat or begin tripping breakers, the cause is often within the wiring, thermostat, or circuit load. MAD Energy NW provides professional repair and diagnostic services from a licensed Auburn electrician to restore efficient, safe heating throughout your home.

Common Electrical Problems in Heating Systems

Electric heating systems operate under heavy electrical demand, making them sensitive to wiring faults and control failures. Some of the most common issues include the following:

  • Units that fail to turn on or heat evenly
  • Breakers tripping during operation
  • Malfunctioning thermostats or control relays
  • Burned or loose wiring connections
  • Overheating caused by restricted airflow or circuit overloads


If these problems occur, timely professional repair prevents further damage and helps maintain safety during operation.

Our Repair and Diagnostic Process

MAD Energy NW carefully inspects each heater’s electrical components and control systems to identify the root cause of failure. We use professional testing equipment to verify power flow and ensure all repairs meet Washington State safety standards.

Our process includes the following:

  • Checking for proper voltage at the breaker and disconnect
  • Inspecting wiring and terminal connections for heat damage
  • Testing thermostat calibration and control response
  • Replacing faulty relays, elements, or fuses
  • Confirming safe system operation after service completion


All repairs are performed using high-quality materials suited for sustained heating applications.

Preventive Maintenance for Heating Systems

Routine electrical maintenance improves system performance and extends equipment lifespan. Cleaning heating elements, tightening wiring connections, and testing thermostats regularly help prevent shutdowns or electrical faults during colder months.

MAD Energy NW can also upgrade circuits or thermostats for better efficiency and compatibility with modern electric heating systems.
