Expert Electric Furnace Repair
Rising electricity usage is often the first sign you need electric furnace repair. We recommend tracking your electric bill monthly and annually. That way, when there’s a surge, you’ll notice and know to schedule a diagnostic. Another option is to upgrade to a smart thermostat with energy monitoring. It can track your usage and alert you when there is a spike.
If your electric furnace won’t turn on, the first thing to check is whether the switch is on. Ensure that it’s in the “on” position. Check the furnace’s dedicated circuit breaker. If the breaker trips, you can reset it once, but don’t reset it multiple times. You can check the outdoor HVAC disconnect switch and the furnace filter if you have one. We must perform a comprehensive diagnostic if none of these are the problem.
An electric furnace often gives you signs of a problem long before it won’t turn on. Irregular cycling, for instance, is a common issue. Long cycling is a furnace that struggles to reach the temperature settings and runs for extended periods. Short cycling is a furnace that turns “on” and “off” frequently. Both types of cycling can damage your furnace.
You may need an electric furnace replacement or repair if you notice these other signs:
- Uneven heating
- Excessively dry air
- Poor indoor air quality
- Unusual noises or odors
- Inconsistent temperatures
When should you opt for electric furnace replacement instead of repair? If the repair cost is relatively low and the furnace is in good condition, repair is usually the most cost-effective option. We recommend a replacement if the repair costs are high and the system is older. One reason is that electric furnaces made now are far more efficient than those made 15 years ago or more.
We’ll perform a manual load calculation to size your new furnace accurately. That calculation will give you the heating output your home needs in BTUs. From there, you can consider energy efficiency. One of the easiest ways to shop for electric furnaces is the yellow EnergyGuide label. The label provides all the information you need. That includes the estimated annual operating costs. It will also give you a cost range for similar models. The label offers the kilowatts per hour as well. You can use that to calculate a more accurate estimate based on your electric rates.
