Troubleshooting Common Furnace Problems – What You Can Do

Most furnaces run properly, especially with proper maintenance. However, as it gets older, it might start to show signs of aging every now and then. It’s important to know how to troubleshoot these common issues so you can make your furnace run before getting a professional furnace service in Vancouver.
Here are the ways to troubleshoot common furnace problems:
1. Furnace not giving off heat

Is your furnace not producing heat? Try to reset the circuit first. Check your circuit breaker assigned to the furnace and shut it off. Turn it on again and see if it’s already working. If this does not fix the problem, you will need to call a professional to have it checked.

2. Furnace is not producing heat consistently 

Does it heat up a room and then suddenly get cold? Is it not distributing enough heat? Check to see if it’s a clogged filter issue. When the filter is riddled with dirt and dust, heated air will not pass through easily. This can cause the hot air to back up into the furnace. 

3. Furnace not working 

Furnaces not lighting up properly can be due to contamination. If the burner is dirty, it will not ignite properly. Check to see if the pilot light is blue and produces even flames. If it’s not, this is an indication that the furnace burner is dirty. 

It’s still ideal to get a furnace service in Vancouver though. If you encounter issues such as noise, and smell coming from the furnace and inconsistent heat, get the help of professionals from ProGas North Shore.
