Signs Your Furnace Needs Repairs
You don’t want to get caught with a malfunctioning furnace in the winter months. To avoid being stuck in the cold, it’s important to schedule an appointment with a heating contractor at the first signs of trouble.
​
Some symptoms that can indicate your unit needs repairs can include:
-
Short cycling: If the unit runs for less than three minutes before shutting off, it can indicate a problem with the heat exchanger or the thermostat.
-
Irregular flames: If you notice irregular flames in the unit that look uneven or lean toward the back, it can be caused by something minor, like dirty burners, or something more serious like a cracked heat exchanger.
-
Unusual sounds: If you hear sounds like rumbling, popping, or whistling coming from the unit it can indicate a problem that will need to be inspected and diagnosed by a professional.
-
Cracked heat exchanger: If you suspect you have a cracked heat exchanger you should call a professional immediately to examine the issue. This can lead to a dangerous carbon monoxide leak, which can pose dangerous risks to your household.
