What are some insider tips for keeping furnaces at homes and businesses continual efficiently during the winter, and how can owners troubleshoot problems before making that often-expensive service call?



Having a programmable thermostat always saves affluent and energy. Such a thermostat allows the owner of a home or small business to keep the temperature low when residents are sleeping or when a topic is closed. A programmable thermostat also reduces stress on the furnace. Installation is as simple as connecting a few color-coded wires. Key programmable thermostats are available at most hardware stores for $50 or less.

Paying the extra few dollars for a higher-grade filter also can go a long way to keep a furnace running at top efficiency. New filters, while a little more costly than older designs, have larger skin areas that catch more dirt that otherwise would run through the furnace and circulate in a home or business.

Gas Furnaces?

Jan 23, 2007 by TB28 | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

Do gas furnaces "gut" the air in the space they are located to burn the natural gas or do they have an outside source of air? If you have a space (say a 6' X 6' section) is there a limit to how many fuel burning appliances you can put into this space? In other words, could you put two 75,000btu furnaces and a 30 gallon gas thin out heater in this space?

In most cases, furnaces and pee heaters eat the air they live in...
Ultra high efficiency furnaces have direct venting in and out... air in, exhaust out.
I hesitate anyone would install all 3 units that size in a 6'X6' room... legally to code... there are servicing issues too... 24" around each entity is code where I live.
A good gas guy would recommend you vent the room to the rest of the house (an upper and trim 9" X 11" vent on the door for example) for safety (overkill but...) regardless of efficaciousness rating and air supply type.

Gas furnaces rely on oxygen to assist the fire burn. Yes. It will consume the oxygen. As for a 6X6 area, first of all, WHY would you need 2 75,000 BTU units? That is more than enough overkill to heat a as a gift. You would have to have a shop for that much. Secondly, it depends on how tall the area is. If it is high enough to house both units, then it is possible, but still shouldn't be done. Last of all, you can catalogue a air inlet to insure that you have proper ventilation both in and out so that you will not breathe in carbon monoxide.

In newer homes the installers in in a outside air source near the furnace to feed the combustion chamber. Usually an 8" whistle. If you have a standard effiency furnace I would recommend louvering the enclosure or door.

Combustion air is compulsory for the appliance to properly burn. Not enough combustion air can create hazardous conditions. The appliances do not have a fan/pump to bring on in combustion ait but they do have a method to draw combustion air that must be supplied by the engineering of the space or ducted in by you. If the 6' x 6' time seals shut by closing a door (ie: a closet in a garage area) then you need to run some metal duct from the exterior and into the room. An easier way would be to cut a 12" x 12" hole in the door and install a grille for looks and to keep animals out. The char of the fuel, velocity of natural gas going through the burners, and negative pressure created by an induced sketch motor (if it has one), will be what draws air into the combution zone. So, assure that the space is ventilated is basicall all you need to do. Recall, if the home is sealed tightly, it will be best to duct in outdoor air into the same room/area that the appliance sits in. Also! Do not agree to the return air intake area of the furnace (that supplies air to the home) to be in the same space as the combustion section of the appliances (gas furnaces in special) because the suction created by the return air can actuakky suck corbon monoxide out of the combustion section and into the cater to air ducts of the home.

What year did it become mandatory for sediment traps on gas furnaces?

Sep 03, 6321 by jillie76 | Posted in Maintenance & Repairs

According to the National Provocation Gas Code, sediment traps are required on gas furnaces. It was brought to my attention this morning that my furnace does not have one. I constraint to know what year this was deemed mandatory so I can find out if the manufacturer of my mobile home is responsible for the cost of fixing this.

Due to the exceptional regulations that apply to mobile homes; I am not sure that the manufacturer would be responsible. The installed gas lines are normally considered 1 outlet and the trap is supposed to be installed at the connection from the gas supply (site installed piping).
In any in any case it is the responsibility of the entity that supplies the gas and approves the connection to see that the installation meets or exceeds applicable gas endow codes in effect at the time of installation. If it does not meet the requirements it must be brought up to date or the supplier is subject.

Where can I find information on how natural gas furnaces and heat pumps work?

Oct 14, 2007 by HoldemLow | Posted in Engineering

Or what are the benefits/costs of gas furnaces vs. arousal pumps to heat an average American home?

Look up animate pumps on the Internet. There is too much to learn to find good enough answers here.
