Most furnace issues can be repaired quickly. However, the key to avoiding unexpected expenses is identifying the problem as soon as possible. Some common issues include:
- Pilot Light Issues - The furnace's pilot light (ignition source) may go out due to dirt buildup, a faulty thermocouple, or gas supply issues.
- Thermostat Malfunctions—Inaccurate temperature readings or improper thermostat settings can cause the furnace not to turn on or blow cold air.
- Blower Motor Problems - A faulty blower motor can cause the furnace to struggle to distribute heat or prevent it from working altogether.
- Heat Exchanger Cracks - Cracks in the heat exchanger can result in inefficient heating and pose serious safety risks.
- Carbon Monoxide Leaks - A dangerous condition where carbon monoxide escapes from the furnace due to faulty components.
Once identified, these common furnace issues require immediate attention. The faster a technician can address them, the more likely you will avoid costly mechanical failures.
