A West Dundee homeowner called us late on a Thursday when her furnace had been starting and stopping every few minutes without holding heat. Our technician arrived that evening and found a flame sensor that had accumulated enough oxidation to fail consistently after startup. He cleaned and tested the sensor and verified the furnace ran through three complete heating cycles before leaving. She had reliable heat for the rest of the night.

The pressure switch monitors the draft created by the inducer motor. If it does not detect proper airflow — from a failed inducer, a clogged condensate line, or a blocked intake — it prevents the ignition sequence from continuing. The furnace shuts down as a safety measure.
Replace the air filter every one to three months, schedule a fall tune-up before heating season, and keep the area around the furnace clear. For high-efficiency systems, have the condensate drain cleaned annually to prevent winter clog or freeze events.
