Tips and Tricks

Furnace Vents - Furnaces that were installed in the last 20 years are power vented out of the side of your home. These vents can get blocked by weather conditions such as ice, snow, hail, or other factors such as bird nests, debris, plants. In the case that the intake or exhaust vents are blocked the furnace will shut down until the obstruction is cleared.

Sufficient clearance of furnace - It is important that you do not store anything within 5 to 6 feet of your furnace. Paints, oils, gas cans, cleaning solvents, and other flammable or combustible materials should be stored at a distance from your furnace otherwise they can become fire hazards. The sufficient clearance will allow for proper airflow and ventilation of your furnace.

Breaker and Power switch - In the event that your furnace isn’t starting when the thermostat is set to be heating, make sure that the breaker and power switches, often installed on the side of the furnace or a nearby wall, are in the on position. This easy fix can save you time and money.

Condensate Drainage Tube - If you're having problems with your furnace try checking if you have a clear drainage tube that drains into the floor. When the furnace is operating there should be droplets of water running through it. If you are experiencing water around the furnace, it means that your condensate drain is blocked or kinked. You can fix this problem by clearing the blockage, or replacing with a larger drain hose.

Thermostat - It is important that you check your thermostat batteries annually and replace them if needed. Most thermostats that are programmable have a battery that allows you to save your settings when a power outage occurs.

Repairs - The eventual breakdown of furnaces are unavoidable despite carrying out regular maintenance. We do everything we can to help you make the most educated and low-pressure decision. Offering in-home diagnostic assessments that help you decide between conducting repairs to prolong the lifespan of your furnace or making the decision to replace it. We will walk you through the whole process of comparing the costs and benefits of both. Furnace repair is made easy by Humberview Hvac.

Replacements - Furnace replacements depend on multiple factors including the maintenance, model, and make of your unit. Typically, 10 to 15 years is the standard time-frame for replacements. We provide in-home assessments to be sure whether or not it's time for a replacement. We evaluate your unit and make an educated decision on whether or not replacement is your best option. In the event that a replacement is necessary, we make it as painless as possible. Your new unit will be energy-efficient and the right fit for your needs. Installations are completed without the need for you to be home. However, we recommend you let us brief you on how to operate and maintain your new furnace.
