FAQ

What is a pressure switch and why is it important?

A pressure switch ensures the inducer fan creates enough draft to safely vent combustion gases before ignition. If it fails, the furnace won’t fire, preventing unsafe operation.

What are common signs of a bad pressure switch?

Signs include furnace lockouts with “pressure switch” error codes, repeated cycling, delayed ignition, or visible cracks in vacuum tubing.

Can I replace a pressure switch myself?

No. Working with gas appliances and high-voltage components requires certified technicians to ensure safety and proper calibration.

How long does pressure switch repair take?

Most residential repairs take 1–2 hours, including diagnostics, tubing replacement, switch swap, and safety testing.

Will repairing the switch improve furnace efficiency?

Yes. A functioning switch ensures proper airflow and complete combustion, reducing cycling and energy waste.

How often should the pressure switch and tubing be inspected?

Include pressure switch checks in your annual furnace maintenance to catch tubing degradation and switch wear early.

What causes pressure switch tubing to fail?

High heat, vibration, and age can crack or clog the tubing, preventing accurate pressure sensing and proper furnace operation.

Do you warranty pressure switch repairs?

Yes. All switch replacements and related services come with a 1-year parts and labor warranty for your peace of mind.
