Signs Your Furnace Needs Repair

  • Age: Lifespan ranges between 16 to 20 years. Is it hard to find replacement parts because your furnace is now outdated?
  • Ballooning Gas and Electric Bills: Furnaces lose their efficiency over the years. It may now take twice as long to heat up your home resulting in longer usage times and higher monthly bills.
  • Lots of Recent Breakdowns: The last 2 years of a furnace’s lifespan are filled with many breakdowns.
  • Hot and Cold: Some rooms may feel cozy while others may feel cool. Your furnace likely has circulation problems.
  • Loud Noises: Any unusual noises such as banging, rattling or squealing may indicate a problem with your furnace. If you notice your blower frequently powering on and off while blowing cold air something is definitely amiss.
  • Poor Air Quality: Have you noticed an unusual amount of dust, or the smell or feeling of dry, stale air? An older furnace is ill-equipped to properly humidify your house and filter air particles.
  • Rusting on Pipes: If you’ve noticed a lot of rusting on the flue or vent pipes, or perhaps the upward draft in the chimney is non-existent, you need to be aware of a carbon monoxide leak. Sometimes a carbon monoxide leak is detected by the color of the burner flame; if the flame is yellow instead of blue contact a technician immediately.

What We Check for During a Furnace Tune-Up

We’ve found that over 90% of major problems with heating systems could have been prevented with regular maintenance. Don’t take the risk of a furnace breakdown in the middle of winter. Autumn is an ideal time to get your furnace inspected and checked before winter arrives. Right Now Heating and Air Conditioning offers a Family Plan that includes a 16 point furnace tune-up. Here are just a few of the things we check for during a furnace tune-up:

  • Inspect and tighten all electrical connections and terminals
  • Clean and adjust gas burners
  • Clean the combustion chambers
  • Test and measure the igniter resistance
  • Inspect air filters
  • Test and calibrate thermostat
  • Test and inspect all safety controls

What’s an AFUE Rating?

You might have noticed this four-letter acronym when looking into new heaters. AFUE stands for annual fuel utilization efficiency which measures thermal efficiency and represents the average efficiency as a percentage when comparing useful energy output to input. For example, an 85% AFUE means a furnace outputs 85 BTU for every 100 BTU inputted. That means 15% of energy used is purely wasted. When shopping for a new furnace, the higher the AFUE rating, the better.
