Early signs of control board wear can be detected before complete failure occurs, saving you the inconvenience of an emergency breakdown. We recommend scheduling annual maintenance to keep your furnace system running reliably and extend its service life.
How Do I Know If My Control Board Has Failed?
Common signs of control board failure include your furnace system failing to start, unusual noises during operation, intermittent heating, increased energy bills, and error codes displayed on your thermostat or control board. CANRO Heating & Cooling technicians can accurately diagnose control board issues using specialized testing equipment. If you notice any of these symptoms, prompt professional diagnosis can prevent further damage to your system and restore your home comfort quickly.
