Common Heating Problems: Irregular HVAC Heating

Irregular HVAC heating, a common problem reported by Oklahoma residents, occurs when a gas furnace turns on and off in irregular intervals. For example, the furnace may turn off before reaching the thermostat's set temperature and then turn on again.

In addition to preventing your home from reaching the proper temperature, irregular HVAC heating cycles can often cause accelerated wear on furnace components.

Here are a few simple steps that could help fix problems with irregular heating:

Check the furnace air filter. If your furnace's filter is dirty, replace it with a new one.

Clean and lubricate the furnace blower. If the problem continues, the most likely cause is a clogged furnace blower. Clean the blower and remove all dirt and debris. Lubricate the blower and motor by dripping a small amount of engine oil into the oil port, a small hole at the top of the motor. The oil port should be clearly labeled for 3:1 engine oil.
