This crazy Louisiana weather will have many of us wanting to turn on the heat one day, and the air conditioner the next. Before you switch your thermostat to heat, there&#8217;s something important you need to consider: is your furnace even safe to turn on? That may sound dramatic, but trust us, it&#8217;s not an exaggeration. Ensuring your furnace is in good working condition is crucial to avoiding potentially dangerous, and often deadly, issues like carbon monoxide poisoning, fires, and health hazards.<\/p>\n<p>Before you throw your faith into an untested furnace, there are essential steps every homeowner should take. Chief among them is scheduling an inspection with a certified HVAC technician. Why? Because you just never know what might be lurking inside your furnace after it&#8217;s been dormant for an extended period. This is especially important if you&#8217;ve had any recent home renovations or repairs. Let&#8217;s dive into the potential issues you could encounter.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-1 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Why Furnace Repairs and Inspections Are a Non-Negotiable Before Turning On the Heat<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-2\"><p>We know, the last thing you want to do when you&#8217;re eager to warm up your home is to call a technician for a furnace repair or inspection.

This invisible, odorless gas can seep into your home due to malfunctions in your furnace, like a cracked heat exchanger or disconnected flue pipes. And it&#8217;s lethal. Even a small leak can cause headaches, nausea, and dizziness. Prolonged exposure can lead to death.<\/p>\n<p>This is no minor issue, and unfortunately, it&#8217;s more common than you think. At Advanced Air Conditioning and Heating, we&#8217;ve come across countless situations where our technicians found dangerous issues during routine inspections that could have had catastrophic results if left unchecked.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 fusion-flex-container has-pattern-background has-mask-background nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1248px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:100%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:1.92%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:0px;--awb-spacing-left-large:1.92%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Rust and Corrosion in Older Furnaces<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-4\"><p>Another common problem we see is rust or corrosion in older furnaces. The metal components inside your furnace, especially in units older than 10 years, can degrade over time. Rust may create holes, leading to dangerous gas leaks, not to mention inefficiencies in heating your home. Furnaces are designed to contain combustion gases safely, but any breach in that system is a potential hazard waiting to happen.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-4 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Home Renovations Can Knock Flue Pipes Loose<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-5\"><p>Have you ever had work done on your home, like replacing your roof or even remodeling? Well, those large-scale jobs might&#8217;ve impacted your furnace more than you realize. We&#8217;ve seen furnace flue pipes knocked loose during roof construction. It&#8217;s an easy oversight when you&#8217;re focused on getting a new roof installed, but those pipes carry dangerous gases, and if they&#8217;re not connected correctly, they can leak directly into your living space.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-5 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-two\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h2 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Common Reasons a Furnace Might Not Work Properly<\/h2><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-6\"><p>Before flipping that switch, let&#8217;s explore a few more reasons your furnace might not be operating at its best. And worse, it could even be dangerous.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-6 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Blocked or Dirty Air Filters<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-7\"><p>A dirty air filter might seem like a minor inconvenience, but it can lead to your system working overtime, causing it to overheat or even shut down completely. This overheating can lead to stress on the heat exchanger, which, over time, could crack and allow dangerous gases to escape.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-7 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Pilot Light or Ignition Problems<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-8\"><p>Older furnaces often rely on a pilot light, while newer systems use an electronic ignition. If these components aren&#8217;t functioning properly, your furnace won&#8217;t heat efficiently, or at all. Worse, a faulty ignition system could lead to gas buildup.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-8 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Thermostat Issues<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-9\"><p>Sometimes, the problem isn&#8217;t even the furnace itself. If your thermostat is malfunctioning or miscalibrated, it might not signal your system to turn on. This can be frustrating, but it&#8217;s one of the easier fixes for a trained technician.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-9 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Electrical or Wiring Issues<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-10\"><p>Your furnace requires power to run, and any electrical issues, such as blown fuses, tripped breakers, or loose wires, can keep your system from operating. It&#8217;s always safer to have a professional assess these electrical problems rather than trying to DIY it. A DIY electrical fix gone wrong could be more costly than the original problem.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-10 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Ductwork Problems<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-11\"><p>The ducts that deliver warm air throughout your home could be leaking, clogged, or improperly installed.

Cracked heat exchangers, clogged filters, and faulty wiring all contribute to overheating, which can lead to fires. It&#8217;s a chilling thought, but it&#8217;s a very real possibility.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-13 fusion-sep-none fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\" style=\"--awb-margin-top-small:10px;--awb-margin-right-small:0px;--awb-margin-bottom-small:10px;--awb-margin-left-small:0px;\"><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-left\" style=\"margin:0;\">Gas Leaks and Explosion Risk<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-14\"><p>Another hazard is the potential for gas leaks. Furnaces that rely on natural gas or propane can leak if valves or connections are faulty. These leaks are highly flammable, and the buildup of gas in enclosed spaces could lead to an explosion.<\/p>\n<p>At Advanced Air Conditioning and Heating, we&#8217;ve encountered all of these issues during routine calls. Our trained technicians have spotted problems that homeowners didn&#8217;t even realize existed. In many cases, we&#8217;ve been able to make quick repairs that not only got the heat back on but also prevented potential disasters.
