Signs That Your Furnace Needs Repair
We know how frustrating it is to deal with a furnace issue. It can be so infuriating that you may be tempted to fix it on your own. However, furnace repairs—especially when you have no idea on the source of the problem—is not a good DIY project as it can lead to dangerous gas leaks or further damaging the equipment. If you wish to receive fast, reliable furnace repair in Saskatoon, Centennial Plumbing, Heating & Electrical is the right team for the job.
Some furnace issues we fix include but are not limited to:
- The furnace is not producing any warm air
- The furnace is not heating the whole home evenly
- There are water leaks around the system

- The furnace is producing odd sounds such as thumping or scraping noises
What Are the Most Common Furnace Services?
In the event of a malfunctioning furnace, there are few things worse than having to deal with costly repairs. But the unfortunate truth is that most people face maintenance problems with their heating systems.
Wondering what the most common Saskatoon furnace problems are? Let Centennial Plumbing, Heating & Electrical help explain.
- Malfunctioning Thermostat - Your furnace's thermostat is one of the most common problems. A sure sign it's not functioning properly is if your fan is constantly running. This can lead to your battery draining, which in turn will affect the efficiency of your furnace.
- Dirty or Blocked Filters - Your furnace's intake is greatly reduced when its filter is dirty or clogged, which reduces efficiency, and may even damage your limit switch. Make sure your filters are changed each quarter to ensure an optimal level of performance.
- Flickering or Weak Pilot Light - It is critical to your gas furnace's performance that your pilot light is on. If it is flickering or yellow in color, this could signal an excessive amount of carbon monoxide. This should be addressed by a professional.
- Broken Heat Exchanger - Unfortunately, this is a costly issue. Your heat exchanger separates the warmth from the air, so the furnace will run safely. However, if you overheat the house or don't replace your air filters regularly, the exchanger may crack.
- Frayed Blower Belt - During normal use of your furnace, your blower belt gets frayed or breaks. This causes a high-pitched squealing noise that indicates the blower needs to be replaced.
What is The Lifespan of a Furnace?
Considering Saskatoon weather conditions throughout the year, the average lifespan of a furnace is 15 years. If your unit frequently needs repair or is near the end of its lifespan, it may be best to replace it. An HVAC company can help you determine if repairing or replacing your furnace is the best option for you.
How Do You Ensure a Furnace Operates Safely After Repair?
After completing furnace repairs, a professional HVAC technician should perform a safety inspection to ensure that the furnace is operating safely. They will check for gas leaks, ensure the pilot light and burners are functioning correctly, inspect the heat exchanger, and test the furnace to ensure it is working safely.
