10 Ways to Make Sure Your Condensing Furnace Runs Efficiently

Condensing furnaces have been known to offer higher

efficiencies and more comfort. They do however require more

care. Condensing furnaces have heat exchangers and

condensation drains that can become clogged if not properly

taken care of. If these furnaces are not properly maintained,

they can easily break down and put a pretty big dent in your

wallet. Some homeowners find that the maintenance on

these units is quite a hassle but if you want your unit to run

efficiently, these tips cannot be ignored.

- Make sure you replace your air filters regularly.

- Check for blockages often. Insect and rodent nests are

frequently found in the pipes. Blockages caused by the

nests can cause your system to break down.

- Check the main burners regularly for deterioration or corrosion.

- Regularly check the gas pressure. It is important that the gas pressure isn't too

high or too low.

- Flush the drain at least once per year.

- Make sure the venting is clear. This will allow water to drain properly.

- Make sure the primary heat exchanger is rust free and shows no signs of

cracking.

- Check the setscrews often. Sometimes they can work themselves loose causing

misalignment and inadequate air flow. Make sure they are secure and aligned

properly.

- Wash the blower wheel if you notice accumulated dirt. Built up dirt can reduce

the airflow not allowing your furnace to work properly.

- Make sure you know how to properly control your condensing furnace.

If your furnace is not properly maintained, it is not going to work properly. It is

important that when you need your condensing furnace serviced, you call an HVAC

contractor who is familiar with these units. Contact Cranbury Comfort Systems to find

out how replacing or upgrading to a higher efficiency heating system can not only

increase you and your family’s comfort but also significantly lower your homes

heating bills.
