Why is my furnace draft inducer motor running continuously, but the gas burners won't ignite?
When the draft inducer fan runs without ignition, the furnace control board is usually failing to receive a closed signal from the air pressure switch. In Bloomfield Township homes, this is often caused by a blocked PVC intake vent outside, moisture in the pressure switch tubing, or a cracked inducer housing. The pressure switch serves as a critical safety check to ensure toxic combustion gases are vented before gas valves open.
A dual-fuel system pairs an electric heat pump with a high-efficiency gas furnace. During mild Michigan fall and spring days, the heat pump handles heating efficiently; when winter temperatures along Woodward Avenue or Telegraph Road plunge below freezing, the system automatically switches to the gas furnace for maximum heat output. This hybrid operation balances energy costs while maintaining continuous indoor comfort.
A gas valve solenoid can fail due to electrical coil burnout, age, or voltage spikes from the control board, preventing natural gas from flowing into the burner assembly. If you hear a click from the furnace control board followed by silence and a lockout code, a technician will test valve voltage and gas inlet pressure to confirm whether the gas valve requires replacement or recalibration.
Temperature variations across multi-level or extended-footprint Bloomfield Township homes often stem from unbalanced duct damper settings, improper static duct pressure, or inadequate return air vents in upper-floor additions. Our technicians measure supply-side airflow, adjust manual inline dampers, and balance register flow to ensure consistent heat distribution throughout every wing of your home.
A faint dust smell during the first furnace startup of the season is normal as settled dust burns off the heat exchanger. However, a sharp burning plastic smell suggests melted wire insulation or a failing blower motor belt, while a sulfur or rotten egg smell indicates a dangerous natural gas leak. If you smell gas near your utility room, shut off the gas supply line immediately, evacuate, and call for emergency HVAC service.
