Are you having a gas furnace problem this time of the year? It could be very difficult, not to mention expensive to have one repaired or replaced. But before you panic and spend thousands of dollars for repair or replacement bills, check first what's wrong with your equipment. If you find out, maybe you can still salvage it from being replaced and yourself from spending on unnecessary feels.
One of the most common furnace problems is that it doesn't release heat to your home. Sometimes even though it's turned out, you will still feel that you are getting colder by the minute. Don't panic just yet. Common causes of this is low gas pressure or a low voltage. Turning the power on and off and will reset the unit, and if the cause is as simple as the ones mentioned, it will be able to function normally again after you have switched it on and off a few times.
Another common problem that happens is the gas furnace emitting varying degrees of heat. It may still not be as serious as you think. Common causes of this is a dirty filter and a clogged blower. Making sure to keep those two clean will eliminate this problem immediately and prevent worse ones from happening for years. So if you think you are not cleaning your furnace enough, you better start now unless you want to spend more than just on cleaning materials.
One of the most hazardous furnace problems is carbon monoxide emission, which happens even when it's working properly. To avoid any potential danger, you need to have a carbon monoxide detector to prompt you when the carbon monoxide levels have already reached a dangerous level.
