Furnace repair calls in Burnsville homes

A Burnsville split-level built in the 1970s is probably on its second or third furnace, and the mechanical room is usually roomy enough to work in. The failures are the standard ones for furnaces of that age: flame sensors coated enough that the burners drop out after a few seconds, hot surface igniters that crack, inducer motors whose bearings start to whine, and blower capacitors that leave the motor humming without turning.

A lot of calls in these houses aren't broken equipment at all. The lower level is cold, the upper level is fine, and the owner assumes the furnace is failing. We check temperature rise and static pressure, and if the furnace is healthy we say so and point to the returns and supply balance instead. In the townhome and condo associations, furnaces sit in closets or small utility rooms, and a side-wall vent drifted over with snow or tucked under a neighbor's deck is a common reason they lock out.

Furnace repair in Burnsville: questions

Our Burnsville townhome furnace keeps locking out on snowy days. Why?

Look at the white PVC pipes where they leave the building. On townhomes they often exit low on a side wall or under a deck, and drifting snow or frost can block the intake or exhaust. The pressure switch then won't close, and the furnace locks out after a few tries. Clear the pipes carefully and reset once. If it happens again with the pipes clear, we check the pressure switch, the inducer and the condensate trap.

Our 1970s Burnsville split-level still has a chimney-vented furnace. What wears out on those?

On an 80% furnace venting into a masonry chimney, we see cracked hot surface igniters, tired draft inducers, pressure switches with split hoses and rusted vent connectors. The chimney matters too, since a failing cap or crumbling flue can send debris and condensation back toward the furnace. A draft check belongs on any furnace or water-heater service here.
