Furnace Repair

An electric furnace is a type of heating system that uses electricity as its primary source of power. Unlike gas furnaces, which use natural gas or propane, electric furnaces heat the air using electrical resistance coils. When electricity passes through these coils, they become hot and transfer heat to the air that circulates through the furnace and into the home.

Electric furnaces are typically easier to install than gas furnaces, as they do not require any venting or gas lines. However, they may not be as efficient as other types of heating systems and can lead to higher energy bills. Additionally, electrical issues or problems with the thermostat can cause the furnace to malfunction, which can be a significant issue during colder months.

1. Heating inefficiency: One of the primary problems with an electric furnace is that it may not be as efficient as other types of heating systems. This can lead to higher energy bills, as the furnace will need to use more electricity to heat the home. Poor insulation or ductwork can also contribute to inefficiency.
2. Malfunctioning Thermostat: Another common issue with electric furnaces is a malfunctioning thermostat. This can lead to inconsistent heating or no heating at all. If the thermostat is not properly calibrated or is malfunctioning, it may not be sending the proper signals to the furnace to turn on or off.
3. Electrical issues: Since an electric furnace relies on electricity to function, any electrical problems can be a major issue. This can include faulty wiring, blown fuses, or tripped circuit breakers. If any of these issues occur, the furnace may not turn on or may not function properly, which can be a significant problem during the colder months.
