Furnaces are a fairly old but time-tested method of heating your home. While many new homes today are built with central air conditioners and heaters units, there are many homes as well as businesses that still use furnaces to heat interior spaces. Many of these systems are rather old and even though they have many years on them, they’re still fairly reliable. That doesn’t exclude the possibility of these furnaces breaking down. When they do, it will be important to have a company that understands the nuances of furnace repair in order to get your heating unit up and running again.
Fortunately, furnaces typically experience very common issues when it comes to breakdowns. In most cases, the repairs for these furnaces are fairly straightforward and inexpensive. The only problem is that in most cases, you’ll need a professional service to make the repairs that your furnace requires.
One of the most common issues is a faulty thermostat. If the thermostat isn’t working well or isn’t calibrated properly, the furnace simply won’t engage and your home will stay extremely cold. Sometimes, simply changing out the thermostat is all that is needed to get your furnace running again and keeping your home or business comfortable.
Another issue that is common is a faulty pilot light. When a pilot light fails to ignite, there will be no heat in the furnace. As such, your home or business will remain cold. Sometimes it is the igniter unit that needs to be replaced or in some cases, the pilot light unit will need to be repaired in order for the pilot light to engage when you turn the furnace on.
Lastly, furnaces that run on propane or natural gas may have problems with the flow of this fuel to the furnace itself. Sometimes clogged lines or lines that have become damaged reduce the flow of the fuel to the furnace. Furnaces that have these issues will need to have professional services come out in order to make the necessary repairs to the gas lines to get the furnace up and running again.
