It's worth noting that even minor faults in the furnace can cause energy loss. According to the US Energy Information Administration, space heating takes up about a third of the energy used in the average American home, making it the largest energy expense for most homes. Inefficient heating systems can therefore cause energy losses and high costs. This article discusses faults common in propane furnaces and how a furnace repair service can fix them.

You should expect your furnace to blow cool air only at the beginning of a heating cycle before the heat exchange process picks up. However, if your system has been running for at least half an hour or longer and it's still blowing cold air, you may have a problem. Note that this can be frustrating, especially on a cold evening when you need your heating unit the most. As such, you may want to learn why your system is blowing cold air and see if you can resolve the issue.

The air conditioner (AC) plugs into a circuit breaker that cuts off the electrical supply to the AC in case of a fault. Numerous faults can trip the circuit breaker, but you can classify most of them under the following two categories.
1. Short Circuits
An electrical short circuit occurs if electrical current flows through an unintended path. A short circuit is dangerous since it can cause an electrical fire, electrocution, or damage electrical components.

The heat exchanger is the chamber inside of a gas furnace where combustion takes place. Under normal circumstances, the heat exchanger transfers heat from burning fuel into the air around it, and then expels waste gas through the furnace flue.
Overheating, corrosion, and advanced age can all cause a furnace heat exchanger to crack. A furnace with a cracked heat exchanger is unsafe to operate because it may leak toxic gasses into your home's breathable air.
