It’s not a good thing when one your appliances is tripping your circuit breaker, but having your furnace cause difficulties through the coldest Tucker days is pretty high on ACS Heating and Air Conditioning’s list of “Bad Things.” If your furnace is tripping your circuit breaker, you may need a furnace repair. ACS Heating and Air Conditioning can help you find out what the exact problem is, but here are some reasons we usually see: overworked furnaces, short circuits and wiring problems. It doesn’t matter what is going on with your furnace, if your circuit breaker is tripping, you need to call in a qualified technician.
Overworked Furnaces
There are several reasons why furnaces can be overworked, but they’re typically preventable. Dirty air filters and blocked or closed vents are often responsible—and those problems can be easily identified and fixed during a preventive maintenance visit. If that’s not the cause of your furnace trouble, ACS Heating and Air Conditioning can help you out by doing a furnace repair.
Short Circuits
If you have a short circuit in your furnace, it will trip the breaker promptly when you turn it on. If you think you have a short circuit in your furnace, call ACS Heating and Air Conditioning right away for a furnace repair. Short circuits can be very dangerous, resulting in fires or other serious damages.
Wiring Problems
Faulty installation or loose connections can cause your furnace to short circuit and trip your circuit breaker. No matter how they got that way, loose wires can cause your furnace to overheat and trip your circuit. Your ACS Heating and Air Conditioning technician can find and tighten any loose connections and make sure your furnace is operating safely.
