Common Furnace Issues in Ogden

A dirty or faulty flame sensor is a frequent issue in Ogden's dry climate, causing the furnace to shut off after ignition.
Igniter Problems
The igniter can crack or wear out over time, especially in older furnaces, preventing the burner from lighting.
Blower Motor Malfunction
A failing blower motor reduces airflow, leading to uneven heating and higher energy bills.
What to Expect During a Furnace Repair
A technician will first diagnose the issue for a fee of $75–$200. They will then provide an upfront cost estimate for the repair. For gas or electrical work, a mechanical permit must be pulled.
