The main causes of problems with your gas furnace

You can only begin repairing your equipment once the cause of the malfunction has been accurately determined. You can then determine if it is possible to fix it yourself or if you will have to call a Rheem Furnace Repairs technician.

Causes of furnace burner fade can be caused by external factors:

• Deterioration of the chimney's natural draft or chimney tipping.
• Decrease of gas pressure in the main line.
• Malfunction of the gas meter.
• Clogged gas filter.
• Power failure.
• Lack of supply air.
• A draft in the house that creates a short-term overflow of supply air.
• Heating system malfunctions.

Very rarely, sudden gusts of wind can overturn the draft in vertical outdoor chimneys or wall-mounted exhaust shafts, which can cause a gas furnace to go out. Rheem Furnace Repair and Service will fix this problem.

Troubleshooting inside the furnace

Modern gas furnaces are equipped with a minimum set of safety automatics that shut off the gas supply for such signs:

• A drop in gas pressure in the main line.
• Insufficient drought created by the chimney.
• Burner attenuation from external influences.

Advanced automation kits allow you to control the temperature of the coolant, regulate the intensity of combustion and so on. The more complex the device, the more elements in it are subject to malfunctions. Because of them the fuel supply is blocked, and you should look for the reason why the gas furnace does not ignite. Rheem Furnace Repair specialists will quickly determine why your furnace isn't working.

Here is a list of possible malfunctions

The burner ignites but goes out after a few seconds. This can be caused by soot contamination of the flame control sensor. It is necessary to clean the element and repeat the ignition attempt. This service is performed by Rheem Furnace Repair and Service.

Failure of the draught sensor blocks gas flow to the burner. You can try cleaning the sensor, and if that doesn't help, replace it. A failed thermocouple that controls the safety valve will prevent the burner from operating when the adjusting wheel is released during ignition. The faulty element must be replaced by contacting Rheem Furnace Repair.

The gas supply is also blocked if the coolant pressure sensor is defective. As a temporary solution, its contacts can be turned on directly, but a new element can be supplied later.

"Dead" display may indicate that the controller fuse has blown, replacing it will help. The same effect happens with incorrect phasing of the electrical network, this is treated simply: you need to pull the plug out of the socket and put it back in, turning it upside down. 

Determining what the reason for the furnace fails and where you should look for fault, will help the passport on the product or the instruction manual. They decipher the error codes that appear on the display of the heating unit in each case of incorrect operation.

So, if the furnace does not ignite or if its flame is very weak and fades after a while, then it can be mainly due to mechanical causes (clogging). And such malfunctions can be eliminated on your own. If the cause is different (or it cannot be determined reliably enough), it is preferable to contact a Chula Vista Appliance Service Center gas appliance service company.
