Connor Heating & Plumbing, a plumbing and heating company based in Belleville, Ontario, Canada, has announced that they have a new blog. This blog site offers information to homeowners to help them do some simple plumbing and heating tasks around the home. This can help them save time and money and avoid the headaches of common household heating and plumbing issues.
Jack Connor from Connor Heating & Plumbing says, “We’re glad to be of service to homeowners with regards to doing what they can to take care of their plumbing and HVAC systems. We do hope that the articles in our blog will prove to be useful for them.”
In one of the blog posts, they discuss the basics of HVAC mechanisms and systems. HVAC systems have become a necessity in all enclosed spaces in order to protect people from the kind of weather that is being experienced all over the world. These enclosed spaces include homes, especially during the winter season when people tend to stay at home in order to be cozy and warm. However, HVAC systems need to be maintained on a regular basis or problems may arise that if left unattended will ultimately lead to costly HVAC repairs and replacements.
The article points out that there are a number of HVAC products that can be used to keep the energy consumption low without having to compromise on one’s comfort. However, homeowners will need to be careful in choosing a system that is suitable for their home and HVAC system. For instance, there is the thermostat. Another option is to choose those units that use induction motors. The only moving part of the induction motor is the rotor, which is virtually suspended on a magnetic field, making it run quietly and efficiently.
In another article by the plumbing, air conditioning and furnace company, they advise homeowners and other property owners not to wait until winter to have their furnace checked. It is common for people to simply shut off their furnace when winter ends and warm weather finally arrives. However, this may prove to have negative consequences when winter comes again and they need the furnace to provide the necessary warmth. It is, therefore, a good idea to check on the furnace during spring or at least before the winter arrives.
There are a number of signs of potential problems to look for, such as musty or dusty odors from the vents. It is natural to have such odors when a furnace first cycles on because of the dust from the ducts being blown into the living spaces and the dust being burned along the heat exchanger. However, if the smell persists or if it occurs later in the winter, it is an indication that the motor is overheating or there could be an electrical problem. While natural gas may be the fuel used to heat the air, electricity is needed to run the fan, the igniter, and the limit switch. If there is a problem in these components, a problem may occur. Thus, it is a good idea to have a professional HVAC technician check on the furnace even before the winter has arrived.
Another article focuses on how a gas furnace works. Gas furnaces are commonly used for keeping homes warm and comfortable during the colder seasons like winter. Natural gas is the usual fuel because of environmental issues with other types of fuel like wood, oil, and coal. It has three main parts. The first part is made up of the burners, the draft inducer, the heat exchangers, and venting. The second part is composed of the controls and the safety devices. The third part is made up of the blower and the air movement. It combines fuel and air and ignites this to heat the air that is circulated all over the home. A thermostat signals the furnace to start heating the air once the home temperature goes down to a certain level and signals it to stop when it reaches a particular temperature.
