Do you have leakage emanating from your home’s furnace system? If so, you’re in the right place. Do not permit this issue escalate into a serious problem! A leaking furnace can lead to the formation and fuel the growth of mold. It could also prompt drain blockage and lead to lasting harm to your expensive furnace system.
The Condensation Drain Could Be Clogged
The excess water doesn’t have any place to go to when your drain is plugged up. The drain will fill up, flow onto the condenser pipe, and then overflow. The drain is adjoined to the floor where it empties. High-efficiency gas furnaces often have this predicament.
The less efficient furnace with a metal dispense pipe should never be leaking. If it does begin to leak water out from the metal pipe, it could mean you have the wrong pipe. It will then travel back up into the furnace and leak out.
Broken Secondary Heat Exchanger
If the heat exchanger breaks, it could cause drastic problems. It could ruin your unit, and then a professional will need to service it. This could ultimately leave you needing a completely new system. And that’s one headache no one wants this time of year.
A Furnace Humidifier Problem
If you a leak in your humidifier and it’s leaking inside your furnace, you have a major problem on your hands. Getting a furnace tune-up or an SMA with our company is insurance against this problem because the system gets some much-needed attention. If not promptly taken care of, a leak this big could cause a lot more damage.
Clog in the Internal System
This is more for the homes that have a consolidated air conditioning unit and furnace drain. If the drain is already clogged from your furnace, you will have the same issue when you go to turn your furnace unit on.
