Common furnace repair issues in Arkansas City
Igniter or flame sensor failure
Older furnaces in 1950s homes often have worn igniters or dirty flame sensors, preventing the burner from lighting.
Blower motor problems
Dust and age can cause blower motors to overheat or seize, reducing airflow and heat distribution.
Heat exchanger cracks
In gas furnaces, repeated heating cycles can crack the heat exchanger, leading to carbon monoxide risks and requiring replacement.
