MOST RECENT HVAC PROBLEMS

 

While there are many HVAC problems that can easily be resolved with simple filters and cleaning, some of the most prevalent heating and cooling system faults could lead to more serious problems if they aren't addressed quickly.

 

ASK ANSWERS TO THE POPULAR HEATING & COOLING PROBLEMS

 

1) INADEQUATE MAINTENANCE

 

A registered contractor must service your furnace on a regular schedule to keep it in top condition. A professional can service your furnace and prevent the most common furnace repairs. You have probably spent hundreds of dollars on your home heating system. It is worth protecting your investment.

 

2) DIRTY FILTERS

 

Your furnace's life span and effectiveness will be extended if your filter is replaced on a regular basis. Airflow can be restricted if the filter is clogged. This will make your furnace work harder to circulate your home's air. This not only puts stress on the furnace's blower but also causes discomfort.

 

3. PROBLEMS WITH THE PLOT OR THE IGNITION

 

There are many reasons why ignition problems can occur. Filthy burners, flame sensors, or pilot outages can all result in a delayed activation or short cycling, furnace lockout or furnace lockout. A gas supply issue, or simply wear and tear on an incinerator such as a thermocouple or hot-surface igniter could cause this.

 

4) FAILURES TO THE THERMOSTAT

 

There are many types of thermostats available, including programmable or non-programmable. If homeowners feel their furnace isn’t operating properly, it’s usually because of a problem with the thermostat setting or adjustment. A manual and operating instructions can help you avoid expensive or unnecessary service calls. Regular replacement of batteries in programmable thermostats is possible. If the problem persists a service professional will quickly diagnose it.

 

5) WEAR MECHANICAL MECHANICAL EQUIPMENT

 

Your heating system depends on several mechanical components. Your heating system's functioning can be negatively affected by natural wear and tear. Poor heating and ventilation can all be caused by belts or bearings. Regular maintenance should include inspection for worn or stretched belts and, where necessary, lubricating both bearings (and motors) and lubricating them.

 

6) OUT OF BOX FRUCE NOISES

 

Some furnace noises are harmless while others can be indicative of a serious mechanical problem. A whining or screaming motor could mean that the bearings in the inducer or blower motor are worn. The engine may need replacement to avoid a furnace fire. Alternately, we may be able to install a completely new furnace. Unclean burners or airflow problems could also produce other sounds. These warning signs should not, however, be ignored. They could signal a dangerous operating situation or even cause a failure of the furnace.

 

7) TRIPPED BREAKERS / BLOWN FUSES

 

Overworked blowers are most likely to cause a furnace circuit breaker trip. Your blower may have to work harder if there is something obstructing the system's airflow. Clogged filters are most likely to be the cause. Your blower must work harder to push through an air filter that is clogged. The blower's energy demand will increase and the circuit may trip. Before you reset your circuit breaker, ensure that your filter is checked and replaced with a new one.

 

COILS BY A DIRTY CONDENSER/EVAPORATOR

 

Most likely, your AC conditioner isn’t cooling as efficiently as it could because you haven’t done its regular maintenance. Dirt and other debris could clog the coils of your system, decreasing its performance and making it wear out quicker. You can spray down the outdoor coil after you have turned off power to the condenser. To turn off the power, the electrical disconnect can be found near the condenser. The interior evaporator may become clogged if furnace filters aren’t regularly changed. Filthy evaporator tubes can affect the efficiency of your furnace and air conditioner and make it more difficult to operate. You will need to hire a qualified service technician to clean the Marietta ga unclean coils.
