Modern furnaces require two blower motors: one for the house blower and one for the inducer blower. The inducer fan (or draft inducer) creates negative pressure in the combustion chamber, pulling exhaust gases away from the furnace and out of your house. This "draft" not only ensures your furnace operates safely but also improves efficiency by ensuring clean combustion. Of course, the inducer motor is a mechanical part, and many inducer motors will fail before the rest of the furnace reaches the end of its lifespan. Read More

About Me

I almost always have my air conditioner inspected every spring before I start using it in the summer. However, last year I decided to skip the inspection. Everything had been OK for the last couple of years, so I assumed that it would be fine this year as well. Why not save a few dollars and skip the annual check up, just this once? Of course, this was the year that my air conditioner decided to break down. It ran for a few days, but it never really seemed to get cool enough to bring the indoor temperature down. Then it started making a loud noise, right before shutting off completely. By that time, the AC repair company was swamped like it always is when the weather is warm, and I had to wait days for an appointment. Next year, I will definitely be getting that yearly inspection first.
