Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What are the signs that my furnace needs repair in North Vancouver?
If your furnace isn’t providing consistent heat, making strange noises, or producing unpleasant odors, these could indicate a need for North Vancouver furnace repair. Additionally, if your furnace cycles on and off or isn’t responding to thermostat adjustments, it’s important to schedule a repair service to avoid further damage.
How often should I schedule furnace maintenance for my North Vancouver home?
It’s recommended to have your furnace serviced at least once a year, ideally before the cold weather sets in. Regular maintenance helps ensure that all components are clean, functional, and operating efficiently, minimizing the risk of breakdowns during the colder months in North Vancouver.
Why is my furnace running but not heating in North Vancouver?
If your furnace runs but doesn’t heat properly, the issue could be something simple, like a clogged air filter, or something more complex like a malfunctioning igniter or a clogged vent. A professional North Vancouver furnace repair technician can quickly diagnose and resolve the issue to restore your home’s warmth.
Can a malfunctioning furnace in North Vancouver increase my heating bills?
Yes, a furnace that’s not functioning properly can lead to higher energy bills. If your furnace is working harder than necessary due to clogged filters, a malfunctioning thermostat, or worn-out parts, it uses more energy to maintain the desired temperature. Regular maintenance and prompt repairs help keep your furnace running efficiently and save on heating costs.
How can I prevent furnace breakdowns in my North Vancouver home?
To avoid costly repairs and unexpected breakdowns, ensure your furnace is regularly maintained. Schedule annual check-ups, change the filters regularly, and make sure the area around your furnace is free of debris. Address any unusual sounds or issues promptly to maintain its efficiency throughout the heating season.
Should I repair or replace my furnace in North Vancouver?
If your furnace is over 15 years old and requires frequent repairs, it might be time to replace it. However, if it’s relatively new and the issue is minor, repairing it might be the better option. A North Vancouver furnace repair technician can assess the situation and help you decide the most cost-effective route.
Installation and Replacement of High Efficiency Natural Gas Furnaces
For assistance selecting the ideal furnace for your house, contact Seebacher Plumbing & Heating, your local specialists in Vancouver furnace installation. For the installation of your new high-efficiency natural gas furnace, we provide FREE on-site quotes. By switching to a high-efficiency furnace, you can both improve your level of comfort and save up to 37% on
your energy costs. The Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency (AFUE), which is typically given in percentages, is used to gauge a furnace’s efficiency. Based on how they function and disperse heat throughout your house, furnaces are classified; for example, your furnace could be classified as:
| Stability of Temperature | Efficiency in Energy Use | |
|---|---|---|
| One-Stage Furnace | Poor | 80% AFUE |
| Dual or Two Stage Furnace | Good | 96% AFUE |
| Modulating or Variable Furnace | Excellent | 98.2% AFUE |
One-Stage Furnace
Either the gas flame is ON or it is off. The furnace produces a strong flow of warm air to heat the house only when the interior temperature drops. The thermostat resets the cycle and turns off the system when the temperature reaches the specified level.
Although they are the least expensive to buy, single stage furnaces are the least energy efficient equipment.
Dual- or Two-Stage Furnaces
The flame in this kind of furnace is always “on/high,” “on/low,” or “off”. The addition of this second flame significantly lowers the energy cost of the system. Furnaces with two stages are slightly more expensive and quieter.
Modulating or Variable Furnace
The coziest gas furnace available is this one. The temperature swings that single- and dual stage furnaces are known for, which cause some rooms to have hot patches where heat accumulates or cold spots where heat doesn’t endure between furnace cycles, would be avoided by a modulating furnace. Additionally, you won’t have to endure the chilly spells before the furnace turns back on. A modulating furnace works more silently and efficiently than other types of gas furnaces by automatically making minor, continuous adjustments to the temperature to provide you with comfortable, consistent temperatures throughout your house.
