Common Problems with Gas Furnaces<\/h3>\n

Here are some of the more common repairs our technicians see when it comes to gas furnaces:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Problems with ignition<\/strong> \u2013 depending on the age of your furnace, you can have either an electronic ignition or a pilot light. However, both can experience problems that will affect whether or not the burner is lit. Shifts in position, faulty thermocouples and even dirt can stop your furnace from igniting. It\u2019s best to allow a trained expert to see exactly what the problem is.<\/li>\n
  • Problems with air flow<\/strong> \u2013 there can be a couple of reasons why your home isn\u2019t getting the amount of warm air it needs. The first is an issue with the blower. The blower is the main fan in your heater that pushes the warmed air into your living spaces. If there is any kind of issue with the fan or its components, it may not work correctly. The second reason is a clogged air filter. When the air filter in your system is clogged, it restricts air flow. This will result in low air volume.<\/li>\n
  • Problems with the heat exchanger<\/strong> \u2013 if the heat exchanger at the core of your furnace is excessively dirty or cracked, it won\u2019t work as needed. A dirty heat exchanger can be cleaned, but a cracked heat exchanger will need to be replaced.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
