3 Signs Of Furnace Problems

The temperature will begin to drop as Seattle homeowners head into the fall and winter seasons. Now is the time to diagnose and repair any furnace problems you have, so that you won’t have to worry about it when the cooler weather starts to present itself. Trusted Plumbing & Heating offers furnace inspection and repair for residents of Renton, WA, Seattle, WA, and surrounding locations. Look for these 4 signs of furnace problems:

Broken Thermostat

If the temperature on your thermostat is not correlating to how the interior of your home feels, you likely have a furnace problem. If you find yourself constantly increasing the temperature, just to feel some sort of heating comfort, a professional inspection is the best course of action. This symptom can be caused by simple electrical defects, but attempting to fix those on your own can cause electrocution.

Moisture at Base

If you notice any type of liquid below your furnace, you should contact a professional immediately. Though it could just be water, which is still a problem because it indicates a clog in the condensation line, it could also be gas which is a more dangerous scenario. If you smell gas in the area, it is likely gas rather than water. TURN OFF your furnace and gas valve and contact Trusted Plumbing & Heating.

Recurrent Cycling

The sound of your furnace turning off, and then restarting again, is a sign of cycling issues. In other words, your heating system is performing for more time than it should be. There are many possible causes of this issue. They include; clogged filters, narrow air pathways, and loose wiring. The best thing to do in a situation like this, is to contact Trusted Plumbing & Heating at (206) 208-0007. We offer furnace inspection and repair in Seattle, WA and surrounding areas.
