All safety precautions are taken during the production of modern gas furnaces. However, before being given to the public, these systems must pass rigorous safety criteria. However, as it ages and wears out, your furnace may have problems that make it dangerous or, at the absolute least, won't work as it should.
The simplest way to avoid this is to schedule regular maintenance and replace your furnace before it approaches retirement age and hastens the onset of a severe issue.
What are these potential problems with your furnace? You can see why Tempe AC maintenance specialists are needed for these problems here.
Heating System Problems You Shouldn’t Ignore
Not all problems that your furnace faces are dangerous. Most of them will increase your expenses and lower your comfort. However, any of these problems could put your safety:
Gas leaks: If the gas line connected to your furnace leaks, you need Tempe AC repair as soon as possible.
Natural gas foremost poses a severe health concern. In addition, a gas line leak might affect your comfort and slow your furnace’s heating operation.
Cracked heat exchangers: Your furnace’s heat exchanger is essential to keeping your home warm. The combustion gases in the system exit through this, heating the metal and, subsequently, the air.
However, combustion gases will escape from your heat exchanger and be blasted into your home, risking your safety and health.
Finally, if your furnace still uses a pilot light to ignite, any failure of that light to remain lit could cause serious issues. If there is a problem with the pilot light, the ignition of the gas in the system may be postponed.
Ensure your pilot light is checked out when you get your yearly tune-up because this could be dangerous in several ways.
