Gas Furnace Repair and Replacement
New and old gas furnaces require quite a bit of attention. Twice a year, a maintenance inspection should be scheduled for your unit. Let a reliable and experienced technician from All About Heat & Air help. We can quickly go over every part of your heating system, looking for breaks, damages, and more. Our technicians will clean the parts of the furnace that collect debris easily, like the filters and exhaust fans. But even with regular inspections, things still happen and you may need gas furnace repairs. If you are concerned about your furnace, there are a few signs to look for.
Signs of Gas Furnace Repair Needs
Before agreeing to a complete gas furnace replacement, first look for any potential repairs. There are several things to look for, but as a homeowner, it is not recommended to attempt any repairs on your own. Instead, rely on a licensed technician, like anyone from the All About Heat & Air team. Our technicians are in fact licensed by the state to perform necessary repairs to residential gas lines.
Noisy furnace
A noisy furnace can be the result of a variety of reasons, all of which need to be checked immediately. Loud bangs within the unit could be, essentially, mini-explosions as the furnace ignites. Do not ignore this. A buildup of pressure before ignition could cause serious damage to your furnace and surrounding property.
Not enough heat
If your furnace is not producing enough heat to distribute, the filters and ventilation could be clogged. Making a point to replace filters about once a month will prevent buildup and can help the flow of air. Also, have a technician clean or replace the filters every time they come to inspect the furnace.
Standing Pilot vs.
Hot Surface Ignition
The ignition system in a furnace ignites gas in the combustion system. Traditionally, a pilot light stayed lit to ignite the furnace. Modern furnaces use hot surface igniters, which glow red hot when electrified, igniting the gas. These igniters reduce fuel waste, require less maintenance, and are quieter than pilot lights or direct spark systems.
Unit short cycles
There are a few reasons why a furnace turns off and on rapidly. Most likely, the filters could be dirty. When airflow is restricted, incorrect signals are sent to the furnace. So your unit will turn off and on, seemingly randomly. It could also be a thermostat malfunction. Either can be checked by a licensed technician.
Ignition Systems
The purpose of the ignition system is to spark the burning of gas inside of your furnace’s combustion system. Historically, almost all gas furnaces accomplished this task by means of a pilot light. The pilot light–essentially a small open flame–remains perpetually lit, waiting to provide the combustion energy the next time the furnace comes on.
Hot surface igniters are a more recent development. These electrical apparatuses are constructed from a substance such as silicon carbide. When the furnace is turned on, electricity flows into the igniter, causing it to glow red hot. Once it has reached the appropriate temperature to combust the gas, a flame sensor opens up the main burner valve, thus allowing gas to flow into the combustion chamber.
Benefits Of Hot Surface Igniters
There are several good reasons why hot surface igniters have become the ignition system of choice on most furnaces. Unlike pilot light ignition systems, this type of system reduces fuel waste by only burning fuel when the furnace is running. Hot surface igniters tend to require less maintenance than pilot lights and are also quieter than pilot light or direct spark ignition systems which make a loud clicking sound when they light up.
