Furnaces consume carbon based fuels to produce heat and dispose of the waste material (carbon monoxide) that is created as the fuel is burnt. In Central Texas area most furnaces burn natural or Liquid Petroleum (LP) gas. Oil and coal burning furnaces are more popular in other areas of the United States.
AirOne Heating and Air Conditioning technicians are trained to evaluate both the performance and the safety of your gas furnace. A gas combustion furnace should always bring in combustion air from outside the homes condition space and exhaust the combustion air outside the conditioned space of the home.
Most gas furnaces in the Central Texas area are central “forced air” type furnaces. Central forced air furnaces use a blower motor and squire cage blower to force air across the furnace heat exchanger and in into the duct system where the heated air is distributed thru out the home.
