Forced-Air Furnace 101

Known as the most popular heating solution in Albuquerque, forced-air heating is one of the most effective ways to heat your entire home during the cold winter months.

To make sure you stay warm this winter, we are sharing the ins and outs of the forced air furnace system, so you can recognize problems before they become major.

What is a Forced-Air Furnace?

More commonly known as central heating, the forced-air system is heated by natural gas, propane or electricity. Using air to carry heat throughout your home, the forced-air system is comprised of several ducts, 通风口, and plenums that enable the air to be distributed evenly.

Controlled by a thermostat, forced-air heating uses a furnace to maintain a warm and consistent temperature throughout your home. With the operation of a thermostat, you can control the amount of heat and pressures that travel through the system’s ducts and expels through its 通风口.

Naturally, when the desired temperature is reached, the forced-air system will stop, and then begin once again after the temperature has dropped. By using this method for warmth, the forced-air system is energy efficient, narrowing down heating costs during the winter.

Fall 发动机的调整 and Changeover

常规的 furnace maintenance must occur if your home has a forced-air furnace system. If not, you run the risk of a broken furnace needing repair. With this type of heating structure in your home, you must change out air filters periodically, and maintain a clearance in the system’s duct work, no matter what season it is.
