Tis the Season- Furnace Heating Issues

Published by Don Hester on

Burned Element

Tis the Season when your furnace will show you that is not performing as it should.

As the temperature started to drop I noticed that the furnace was not producing heat as it should. Temperatures at the registers where below 100°. Electric furnace should be over 100° at the registers. I typically see temperature from 105 to well over 140 degrees. 

As it turned out we had an element that had burned out. Luckily this is a fairly easy fix.

Having regular maintenance is key. Even with that things happen, keep your stockings warm by having your heating system serviced each year.

If you find any errors or have additional information that would expand on any code, building standards or manufacturer requirements please let me know.
