Gas-powered furnaces are the most popular method of heating residences in America. Furnaces can work for years without any need for service, but, inevitably, your furnace will show signs of deterioration. If you catch a problem early enough, you may be able to repair the issues before the damage gets worse and causes additional damage. Don’t ignore these signs that you need gas heater service in Melbourne.
Ignition Problems
Many furnaces use a traditional pilot light ignition that requires a constant light in the pilot assembly. When the gas comes into contact with the pilot light, there’s a small, controlled combustion inside the heater that starts the heating process. If the pilot continues to go out after multiple attempts to relight it, that’s an indication of a problem with the ignition.
Poor Air Flow or Poor Indoor Air Quality
Furnaces transport warm air through ducts (unless they escape through a hole in the duct material). As the air travels through the ducts, it will pick up on the dust and debris in the ductwork, negatively impacting your indoor air quality (IAQ).
Faulty Blower
A motorized blower uses force to transport the air through the entire HVAC system. The blower’s motor can become damaged from water damage or trauma. It can also become damaged due to the dust and debris accumulating on it, hindering its processes. The blower will need to be cleaned or replaced in order to keep the unit quiet and regain control over your HVAC system’s airflow.
