Strange Furnace Noises? Here's What Could Be Haunting Your System

October 18, 2024 | Blog

As the temperatures drop in Pasadena, TX, and the surrounding areas, you rely more on your furnace to keep your home warm and cozy. But what do you do when your furnace starts making strange, unsettling noises? While these sounds may seem eerie, they’re often caused by mechanical issues that can be fixed. At Air Tech of Pasadena, we’re here to help you understand what’s behind those unsettling noises and how we can resolve them to keep your home comfortable throughout the season.

Common Furnace Noises and Their Causes

  1. Banging or Popping Sounds
    • Cause: These sounds often happen when the furnace’s metal ducts expand and contract as they heat and cool. Delayed ignition, where gas builds up in the combustion chamber before igniting, can also be the culprit.
    • Solution: Regular maintenance helps prevent delayed ignition and other furnace issues. Schedule a seasonal tune-up with Air Tech of Pasadena to ensure your system runs smoothly and safely.
  2. Squealing or Whining
    • Cause: High-pitched squeals are usually caused by problems with the blower motor or a loose belt that needs lubrication or replacement.
    • Solution: Our expert technicians can quickly diagnose and repair these issues, ensuring your furnace operates efficiently and without further complications.
  3. Rattling or Rumbling
    • Cause: Loose panels or components can cause rattling noises, while a rumbling sound could indicate a problem with the burner.
    • Solution: Tightening loose parts and cleaning the burner are common fixes. Contact Air Tech of Pasadena for heating repair services to address these problems before they worsen.
  4. Humming
    • Cause: A low hum is usually normal, but if it becomes louder, it might signal an electrical issue or a problem with the fan motor.
    • Solution: It’s crucial to have a professional inspect your furnace to ensure the system is working safely and efficiently.
