A furnace that clicks, hums, then falls silent without heat is failing somewhere in its ignition sequence. On newer systems the usual culprits are a cracked or worn hot surface ignitor, a flame sensor coated in oxide so it cannot prove flame, or a pressure switch that will not close because the flue or condensate line is blocked. On older standing-pilot units, a pilot that lights but will not stay lit usually points to a failing thermocouple or a draft reaching the pilot assembly.

These faults follow a diagnosable order and a professional will work through it rather than replacing parts on guesswork. Repeated ignition lockouts should not be reset over and over, since each attempt puts unburned gas into the chamber. Pro HVAC connects homeowners in Little Hocking, OH with HVAC professionals. Call (321) 463-9811.

Furnace Ignition And Pilot Light Repair FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Furnace Ignition and Pilot Light Repair

Questions we hear most often about Furnace Ignition and Pilot Light Repair in Little Hocking, OH.

Talk to a real person
Does my furnace have a reset button and how do I use it?
Many furnaces have a red or yellow reset button on the motor housing or control board. Turn power off at the breaker first, locate the button, and press it once. Restore power and test. Avoid repeated resets, as this can mask a serious problem such as a failing motor or overheating limit switch. In Little Hocking, OH winters, repeated tripping usually means airflow is blocked or the heat exchanger is cracked.
Why does the pilot light on my furnace keep going out?
A weak thermocouple or drafts around the burner compartment usually cause the pilot to extinguish. First, ensure the furnace door is fully closed and the area around the unit is free of strong air currents. If the pilot still will not stay lit after relighting per the label instructions, turn the gas valve off and do not attempt further adjustments.
Is it safe to run my furnace if it smells like burning?
A burning smell on first startup in fall is often dust burning off the heat exchanger and may clear after a few hours. Persistent or strong odors can indicate overheating or electrical issues. Turn the thermostat down, switch power off at the breaker, and call (321) 463-9811. Do not keep running the unit in Little Hocking, OH winter conditions if the smell returns.
How many years does a furnace typically last before needing replacement?
Most furnaces last 15 to 20 years with regular filter changes. In Little Hocking, OH winters, heavy use can shorten life if maintenance is skipped. Watch for increasing repair frequency, uneven heating, or higher energy bills after year 15. A cracked heat exchanger, confirmed only by a qualified technician, requires immediate replacement for safety.
Can a dirty air filter really break my heating or cooling system?
Yes, and it is the most common cause of faults that look like equipment failure. A restricted filter makes a furnace overheat and shut down on its limit switch, freezes an air conditioning evaporator coil solid, and makes the blower motor draw high current until it fails early. Two things matter more than brand: the filter must fit its slot tightly, because a loose filter lets air bypass it completely, and a very high MERV rating in a system not designed for it restricts airflow enough to cause the same overheating it was meant to prevent. A filter that darkens within weeks in Little Hocking, OH usually means duct leakage is pulling in unfiltered air.
