A furnace in Edmonton can experience various issues due to the harsh winter conditions. Some common issues that can occur with a furnace in Edmonton include:
A furnace essentially needs spark, gas and combustion air, in the right sequence. If an issue is suspected by the furnace control, it will lockout as a safety precaution.
The furnace’s air filters can get clogged with dust, debris, and pet hair reducing airflow and efficiency. This can result in reduced heating capacity and higher energy consumption.
The thermostat controls the temperature settings of the furnace. Malfunctions, low batteries, or incorrect thermostat setup can lead to inconsistent heating or complete failure of the furnace.
The blower motor circulates heated air throughout your home. Problems with the blower motor can result in poor airflow or no heat distribution.
Combustion air needs to be drawn into the furnace as well as flue gasses exhausted to the exterior. If these pipes become fully or partially clogged with debris or ice the furnace safety switches will prevent it from operating.
Furnaces that burn fuel can potentially develop cracks or leaks leading to the release of carbon monoxide. This is a serious safety concern that requires immediate attention. Keep carbon monoxide detectors up to date.
It is important to regularly do furnace maintenance and service to minimize the chances of these issues and ensure safe and efficient operation.
There are several add-on features available for furnaces that can increase their performance, comfort, and energy efficiency, these include:
These thermostats allow you to set different temperature schedules throughout the day, helping you save energy by adjusting the temperature based on your daily routine.
These thermostats can be controlled remotely through a smart phone app or web interface. They allow you to adjust the temperature settings of your furnace from anywhere, providing convenience and flexibility.
These devices help to improve indoor air quality by removing pollutants, allergens, and contaminants from the air ensuring cleaner healthier air circulation throughout your home.
Furnace mounted humidifiers add moisture to the air, especially during dry winter months. They can help alleviate dryness, reduce static electricity, and improve overall comfort.
