Furnace Repair in Salt Lake City: what's different

Salt Lake City's cold winters and inversion periods keep furnaces running for months. Many homes have basement gas furnaces paired with swamp coolers or central AC.

Common repairs include igniters, flame sensors, inducer motors and pressure switches. During inversions, keeping filters clean helps both the furnace and indoor air quality.

Ask the tech to check the humidifier, if you have one, during furnace service. Dry Salt Lake City winters make humidifiers common, and a neglected pad or valve can leak onto the furnace. Also ask about filter upgrades for inversion season, and confirm the condensate drain is clear.

FAQ

Furnace Repair questions

Should I change my furnace filter more often during inversions?+

It can help. Check filters monthly in winter and replace them when they look dirty.

Why does my furnace turn on then off right away?+

The most common reason is a dirty flame sensor, which can't prove the flame so the board shuts the gas off. Other causes are a weak pressure switch or a blocked vent.

Is a cracked heat exchanger dangerous?+

It can be, because it may let combustion gases mix with house air. A tech will usually shut the furnace off and red-tag it until it is repaired or replaced.
