Top 3 Dangers of Old Heating Equipment

We at LRF Maintenance hope you’re enjoying a comfortable and cozy winter in your well-heated, central Ohio home. More importantly than comfort, however, we want you to keep your residence and your family safe throughout the winter and holidays. We’ve put together the following general home heating safety tips to follow to avoid any hazardous circumstances:



Fire Risks

Heating sources are a leading cause of house fires in the U.S. Heating systems are designed to safely use combustion to produce heat, and most of them have some sort of fail-safe to prevent fires. Nonetheless, over time, a lot of these fail-safes can corrode, deteriorate, and break down. Furthermore, older systems sometimes lack a lot of the safety mechanisms you’ll find in newer, safer, more efficient equipment. These mechanisms have been put there for a reason. They are necessary to ensure safe operation.



Carbon Monoxide Poisoning

It’s not uncommon for the sensors on a heating mechanism to break down as the equipment gets older, and this can put you and everyone else at risk of carbon monoxide poisoning. In addition to these major types of failures, older heating systems lose performance efficiency as time goes on. This can cause smaller levels of carbon monoxide to release from incomplete combustion. Although these lower levels may not trip your system’s sensors right away, health problems can arise over time as a result.



Gas Leaks

If you use natural gas as a heat source, keep in mind leakage can cause a wide range of health problems. Because of this, it’s good to be mindful that older heating equipment is more susceptible to gas leakage, as opposed to newer equipment. On a long enough timeline, corrosion is inevitable and smaller leaks become more and more prevalent in equipment as it gets older. Oil furnaces are prone to leakage also, and these leaks can cause damage to a home and become fire hazards. As such, having preventative maintenance performed regularly makes these risks far less of a threat.

Common Warning Signs of an Old Furnace

As we demonstrated above, the hidden dangers of older heating units are serious. Its crucial for residents to keep an eye out for some of the signs their heating system is headed for trouble. Be mindful here, whenever you’re assessing a furnace or any kind of heating equipment for future use that safety should always come first. A few of the more common warning signs we are alluding to include:

Yellow or Flickering Flame: The burner flame and pilot light on your furnace should always be blue. If the flame is flickering, or if it’s yellow, you should give us a call without hesitation, as there could be carbon monoxide forming or gas leaking.
Rising Energy Bills: If your heating costs are increasing or if they seem to be more than typical, your furnace might need to be replaced or repaired soon. In any case, moving forward you should monitor your energy consumption as this is often a sign of something gone awry.
Flu-Like Symptoms: Because carbon monoxide is invisible and odorless, it can be difficult for humans to know when there is a leak. As such, if you or your loved ones are experiencing flu-like symptoms, it could be a carbon monoxide leak.

Before You Call For Repair…

At LRF Maintenance, we’re more than happy to offer emergency repairs year-round for our customers. It’s part of our commitment to customer satisfaction. However, there are a few things a homeowner should check before calling for professional help. Here are a few DIY tips that could save you time and money:

Check Air Filter

If your furnace’s air filter is clogged, it can weaken the performance of your furnace and prevent warm air from flowing through your ducts or vents. Check your filter monthly and be sure to change it as necessary.

Check Thermostat

It sounds simple but without direction from these controls, your furnace won’t run. Double-check that the thermostat is set to ‘heat’ and the fan is set to ‘auto’. Also, check your thermostat batteries and replace as needed.

Check Pilot Light

If you have an older gas furnace, check to make sure the pilot light is still lit. If you have newer equipment, it likely has a display for flash codes and should have a panel showing an explanation of each code.
