Late Season Furnace Repairs to\nWatch Out For<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are some of the most prominent\nlate-season furnace repairs that you should keep an eye out for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Faulty sequencer<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The sequencer in your furnace is responsible\nfor activating the heating elements in electric furnaces. It is necessary that\neach of the heating elements start turning on in a particular order. If all the\nheating elements power on at once, there is a danger of overloading the\nelectric panel. Fixing a faulty sequencer can prevent any heating problems that\nit can cause.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failing electric ignition system<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Old-school furnaces used standing pilot lights\nto light the burners. However, modern units are more efficient and use an\nelectronic ignition system. The system creates a spark that ignites the gas for\nthe furnace to work. The ignition system can fail to function properly, and\nthat means your furnace’s burners will not work. If your furnace burners are\nnot turning on, it is possible that the electric ignition system is failing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loose wiring<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Loose wires can always become a problem with\nelectric furnaces. With many homeowners using modern electric furnaces, this is\nbecoming an increasingly common problem. The wires can become slightly loose\nbecause the air handler tends to shake. If any wire becomes too loose in its\nposition, the whole furnace can trip and stop working.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Broken thermostat connection<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The thermostat is responsible for sending signals\nto the furnace, indicating when it should turn on and power off. The unit also\nactivates the blower fan and heating elements based on your preferred settings.\nThere is a set of wires that runs from the thermostat to your furnace. If these\nwires become loose, the furnace can stop working. Additionally, the furnace\nmight stop working if there are any problems with the thermostat itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why You Should Call a\nProfessional to Help<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
