Burner Orifice

« Back to Glossary Index

The burner orifice is a small, precisely-sized opening or nozzle in a gas-fired HVAC system, such as a furnace or boiler. Its primary purpose is to control the flow of natural gas or propane as it passes from the gas supply line into the burner assembly. Once the gas flows through the orifice, it combines with air in the mixing chamber to create the proper air-to-fuel ratio for combustion. This process ensures efficient burning of the gas to produce heat.

Jonathon arrived within 30 minutes of me contacting Paradise. I had a late evening service request due to my unit not properly operating. Jennifer at Paradise was professional and so understanding of how uncomfortable and concerned my family was due the heat. Jonathan had the problem figured out in under 30 minutes of arriving and explained everything very clearly before proceeding. Will be using this company again. Very satisfied!

Kimberly Carns

We had a fantastic experience with Paradise! Our unit was out and we were going through the home warranty process with another company. The heat index was over 100 and we couldn’t wait any longer. Paradise came out on a Sunday morning. They provided a quote, ordered the part, and made all the repairs by Monday lunch. They went above and beyond to help our family and was much more reasonable than the other company we were working with for the same repairs. Can’t recommend Paradise enough!

Cody Moore

A/C fan went out my house. I called Paradise Heating and Air they came right out and in about 20 minutes we were up and running again. Very professional, very affordable. I would ***HIGHLY*** recommend.

Lewis Booker

Jonathon at Paradise Heating And Air is top-notch, very knowledgeable and dependable. My step-mom's AC stopped working. Jonathon gave me some options and I chose to replace it. I highly recommend these people for your HVAC needs.

Edna Cumbee-Montieth

Jonathan is the BEST! We were having an issue with our HVAC not draining properly. Jonathan and Matt came out, assessed the problem and fixed it immediately. Not only were they very courteous, the service was quick and efficient! Jonathan’s experience speaks for itself! We highly recommend Paradise for all your HVAC needs.

How nice is it when someone not only wants your business but goes above and beyond to earn it? That’s Paradise! My issue wasn’t an emergency but the company had a sense of urgency just the same to schedule me quickly, bump my appointment up if I wanted, stay in communication until arrival and tackle the job immediately. They even helped me with another task completely unrelated to the service call just because they saw a need to help. They get all my business now. Please give them yours. You’ll not regret it.

Steve

Always prompt and polite. Not to mention they know what they’re doing

Nathan Stuckey

Paradise Heating & Air made getting my air conditioning up and running a priority and actually REALLY showed up earlier than scheduled like they said they would try to. The very nice person that schedules their appointment REALLY did work me in earlier and called me from her car on her way home from work to do it. I couldn’t believe it- customer service in 2024!? Wow. And the owner who serviced my system answered every one of my questions, endured me standing over his shoulder including walking me through how condensation works 😬. GREAT experience and my air conditioning company moving forward.

Colin Q

Jonathan provides excellent service and is an expert of his craft. Most importantly, he is honest with diagnostics and recommendations - a trait that is hard to find in the HVAC industry. Austin does a great job too!

donna von hagel

Jonathon was fantastic! My upstairs unit stopped working, and since there’s no one living up there right now it wasn’t urgent. That being said, he was there within a couple of days. He was very professional and polite. He did a full assessment and gave me a VERY informative run down of the problems and my options. He could have very well told me that my unit was old and had to be replaced. And, that will be the case on day. But he told me what had failed and that he could fix those things. He’s not a fortune teller…so who knows how long this unit will last. All I know is that he had it back and running perfect quickly! And, it was a lot less than buying a new unit. He truly cares about the customer and their needs. I won’t hesitate to call him again!

Cheryl Kruse

I highly recommend Paradise Heating and Air. I contacted them to give me an estimate on adding more insulation to my attic. They were super responsive. They came out, gave me an estimate that I felt was very reasonable. In a very short time I was on their schedule. They showed up at the time they told me they would and they did a great job!! They even took care of the areas that were leaking heat. They are very personable, great to deal with. I am super pleased.

Kyndall Alexander

I would definitely recommend this company they were very knowledgeable and a decent price!

Adam Bishop

Jonathan and Austin showed up on time, diagnosed the problem quickly and repaired our AC unit immediately. The whole thing took less than an hour! They were super personal and professional. I will definitely call them again.

Kellie L

I can not say enough great things about Jonathon and Paradise Heating and Air. From the moment they answered the phone I knew I made the right choice. This team is top notch! I called on Monday for attic insulation, Tuesday Jonathon came out and spent time showing me what I needed and Thursday the job is done! Clean, professional and treated me and my home like family. I will be using them for EVERYTHING they specialize in. You CAN NOT GO WRONG with this company! 1000% satisfied and never have been so happy to spend money on insulation 🥰.

Ramona Martin

Trustworthy and honest! I'm so thankful for the service I receive from Paradise Heating and Air. I am a repeat customer because I know Jonathan will not try to sell something I do not need. He explains any issues in detail leaving the decision up to me on whether or not to replace a part. Jonathan takes his time to make sure everything is in good working order before he leaves.He truly cares about his customers. I highly recommend keeping your unit(s) serviced twice a year. I am seeing the benefits on being proactive with this. It's totally worth it. I cannot rave enough about the customer service you receive from Paradise Heating and Air. Call them!!!

Michelle Holland

Prompt service on a holiday weekend, fair pricing and corrected issue with professionalism. Highly recommend!

D Avery

I was very pleased with the inspection from Paradise H&A for my church. We have an old, HVAC system that parts are no longer available to repair. Jonathan the owner came out personally to check it. He was experienced, friendly, professional, and was very thorough in checking out the furnace, compressors, air handlers and duct system. He gave me a 'ballpark figure' for replacement with several options. He explained the options to me and what would be required for installation. I appreciated the time he and his helper took to provide a 'free' thorough inspection. Thank you Jonathan and Paradise Heating and Air for putting your customers first!

I was fortunately able to get an appointment for the next day. Jonathan & Austin were prompt and kept me advised of their arrival. They quickly found the problem with my "heat" and were able to fix it without problems. They were very friendly and professional, and I felt that their pricing was fair and reasonable. Thanks again, Guys!

Jerry Smith

On time. Made excellent recommendations. Work performed quickly and reasonably.

Christopher Michael

Jonathon was amazing and gave so much attention to the cleaning and review of our unit for our spring tuneup appointment. He gave his honest opinion about the status of our HVAC and did not try to offer any unnecessary upgrades or repairs. I immediately signed up for their yearly tune-up package because it saves a little money but also because I really trust them!

Quick response time. Excellent customer service and value.

Ronald L Speck

Great service, price, and quality workmanship! Highly recommend! I will use them again.

We have had Jonathan and his capable team working on our A/c and Heating for several years. They are punctual, well mannered and reasonably priced.

Plus, we have appreciated their problem solving skills in helping our remaining old units get along from year to year. We are so grateful to have them a phone call away!

Had what I thought was an issue with my furnace at MIDNIGHT and was in a panic trying to decipher what I thought was an error code. Called numerous places advertising 24/7 assistance and no one could/would help. Jonathan Perkinson with Paradise actually called me back, explained it all to me and kept me from shutting it all down on a cold night. So kind and helpful!!! Highly recommended!
