Here’s what happens after your thermostat’s call for heat:
When your pressure switch isn’t working correctly, you’ll likely hear the fan run and the switch clicking a few times before the furnace shuts down completely. When a part isn’t working right, your furnace will turn off as a safety precaution.
Your furnace will let you know something is wrong with a red flash from its indicator light, which it uses to display error codes. It uses this red light to flash code, like Morse code.
You may see fast flashes or an alternating slow flash as it communicates a fault code.
Before replacing the switch, your Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing tech will check other parts of your furnace first. Several other issues can also cause the error code, like a blocked vent or cracked hose.
The price to repair your furnace depends on what’s wrong with it and how long it takes to fix it.
If your pressure switch needs to be replaced, you can expect to pay between $40 to $350.
If you need furnace repair, trust the professionals from Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing to diagnose the fault code and fix the problem to your satisfaction.
