How a Low-Fire Pressure Switch Works
Two-stage furnaces have various pressure switches to help the system to run at different speeds—and be more efficient. These switches also ensure your furnace runs safely and vents extra gases from the heat exchanger.
What Happens When a Low-Fire Pressure Switch Malfunctions
Your low pressure switch may not be working properly if your furnace inducer motor starts up in high speed and high ignition, then slows down and changes into low-fire mode about 30 seconds afterward.
Your system will indicates something’s amiss with a red flash from its indicator light, which it uses to show error codes. It has this red light to flash code, like Morse code.
You may notice fast flashes or an alternating slow flash as it announces a fault code.
Estimated Repair Cost for Furnace Error Code 229
A blocked vent or a draft can also generate the error, so your Teays Valley Service Experts professional will look at other parts of your furnace first.
The price to fix your furnace relies on what’s wrong with it and how long it takes to repair it.
