Heat exchangers are subjected to extreme temperatures, causing the metal to expand and contract. Over time, this makes it prone to cracking. If the heat exchanger is damaged – either with cracks or holes – it can leak carbon monoxide into the air in your home. Since it doesn’t have an odor and isn’t detected until people start to feel sick, carbon monoxide is known as a silent killer.
Needless to say, if the heat exchanger is cracked, it needs to be replaced immediately. Again, since we don’t sell or install heat exchangers, there is no incentive for us to recommend a replacement unless it’s necessary.
A dirty furnace will perform inefficiently, costing you more in power bills. Furthermore, it can fail prematurely. For this and the safety reason mentioned above, our furnace certification company recommend regular maintenance every two years. You want your furnace to operate safely and efficiently. Sometimes it is difficult to put a price on peace of mind.
