4 Common Furnace Repairs
Furnace repairs can be a real pain. However, they become a lot easier if you know the cause of the problem. Most furnaces have similar problems. This makes repairs fairly easy and understandable. Below, we list some of the most common furnace problems.
BELT AND BLOWER
Broken belts and broken blowers are common causes of furnace failure. If a belt or blower breaks down, they often emit a high-pitched noise. This noise not only irritates the homeowner. However, it also warrants professional repairs. Belts and blowers are both essential to the functionality of any HVAC system. When one of these breaks, the furnace stops working. Call Five Star at the first signs of blower issues.
IGNITION
Furnace ignition problems are among the most severe furnace problems. Because of this, they usually require diagnosis by a professional. Electric ignition or a pilot can both have debris that prevents them from working as they should. If the ignition isn’t working, the whole furnace stops functioning as it should.
BURNER
A furnace’s burner can cause problems if it breaks. Burners heat the air as it blows through your home. If it breaks or malfunctions, the heat does not go into your home, and you’ll notice it. Burner problems range in severity. This means some adjustments need to be made by professionals.
CLOGGED AIR FILTER
One of the most common causes of furnace problems relates to how clean the air filters are. Airflow is extremely essential to home comfort systems. Like other HVAC equipment, furnaces use air filters to clean and filter the air before sending it back into the home. Whenever an air filter gets dirty, it affects the indoor air quality and how much heated air flows through the home. Order air filters to your doorstep today!
“How Much Does Furnace Repair Cost?”
Repairing or replacing your furnace is not a common issue. A well-maintained furnace can last up to 15 to 20 years. So, how do you know when it’s time to repair or replace your furnace? Look out for signs like loud buzzing or humming noises, strong odors, and increased energy bills.
