"Victor was outstanding from beginning to end. Since he didn’t have the necessary part in his vehicle because it was special order, he quickly went to the nearest supplier, bought what he required, and returned to fix my air conditioner. As a result, my house is finally starting to cool down. Victor will finally allow us to rest after three days of suffering! Once again, thank you for everything you did. You were such a kind guy. I hope your employer knows how lucky they are to have you as an employee!"
Furnaces can run on electricity, propane, natural gas, or heating oil. While all furnaces will have similar components, some components will vary depending on the specific type of fuel that the furnace uses. For example, an electric furnace will have a heating element, while a gas furnace will have a burner. Unfortunately, all these components can fail at one point or another.
There are various furnace problems you may experience that require professional attention.
Faulty starting mechanism
Odd noises
Cracked heat exchanger
Malfunctioning limit switch
When your furnace simply won’t start up, it likely has a faulty starting mechanism. In newer furnaces, this will be an electric ignitor. In older furnaces, this can be a pilot light that has gone out. Fortunately, relighting the pilot light can solve the issue.
When your furnace starts to emit odd noises, it’s a real cause for concern. A grinding noise will typically indicate that the ball bearings inside your blower motor are going bad. If you hear a high-pitched squealing noise, it’s likely due to a worn-out fan belt. If you hear a rattling noise, then you have a loose component somewhere inside your furnace.
Another issue you can experience is a heat exchanger that has cracking. This can allow harmful carbon monoxide to build up inside your furnace, which can be extremely dangerous. It’s best to shut your furnace off if you’re experiencing this issue to protect the safety of your furnace, family, and home.
If the blower fan on your furnace seems to be running continuously, it’s an indication that your limit control switch is malfunctioning. This switch is responsible for turning the blower off when the air gets too hot. When it isn’t working correctly, your furnace will continue to run and produce an excessive amount of heat.
