Having an appliance tripping your circuit breaker is never a good thing, but having your furnace cause complications throughout the coldest Kutztown and Breinigsville days is pretty high on Moyer Total Indoor Comfort’s list of “Bad Things.” If your furnace is tripping your circuit breaker, you may need a furnace repair. Moyer Total Indoor Comfort can help you identify what the exact problem is, but here are some reasons we commonly see: overworked furnaces, short circuits and wiring problems. It doesn’t matter what is taking place with your furnace, if your circuit breaker is tripping, you need to call in a professional.
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 the culprit—and those problems can be easily identified and remedied during a preventive maintenance visit. If those are not responsible for your furnace trouble, Moyer Total Indoor Comfort can help you out by executing a furnace repair.
Short Circuits
If you have a short circuit in your furnace, it will trip the breaker instantly when you turn it on. If you think you have a short circuit in your furnace, call Moyer Total Indoor Comfort right away for a furnace repair. Short circuits can be very dangerous, causing 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 trigger your furnace to overheat and trip your circuit. Your Moyer Total Indoor Comfort professional can find and tighten any loose connections and make sure your furnace is operating safely.
