A blower door test puts the house under pressure with a calibrated fan and measures how much air leaks out, giving a number rather than an opinion. It is the step that tells you whether the problem is the heating equipment or the building around it. Houses that fail on comfort rather than equipment usually leak at the rim joist, attic hatch, recessed lights, plumbing and wiring penetrations, and around the chimney chase.

This matters in Cleveland Heights, OH because a furnace that looks oversized and short cycles is often correctly sized for the house as it was built and wrong for the house as it is now, or the reverse after insulation work. Testing before replacing equipment stops you buying a bigger system to cover a problem that sealing would fix for less. The test is also repeatable, so the work can be measured afterwards.

Blower Door Test FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Blower Door Test

Questions we hear most often about Blower Door Test in Cleveland Heights, OH.

Talk to a real person
Why won't my thermostat turn the furnace on?
Start by confirming the thermostat has fresh batteries and is set to heat. Remove the cover and check that the wires are secure on the R and W terminals. Use a level to ensure the unit is not tilted, which can prevent the mercury switch from working. In Cleveland Heights, OH winters, a thermostat placed near a drafty window may read the wrong temperature and never call for heat.
What causes my furnace to short cycle on and off?
Short cycling is most often caused by a dirty filter or blocked return vents that make the unit overheat and shut down. Replace the filter, clear vents, and make sure supply registers are open. A thermostat placed in direct sunlight or near a lamp can also cause rapid cycling. In Cleveland Heights, OH winters this wastes fuel and stresses the heat exchanger.
Why does the pilot light on my furnace keep going out?
A weak thermocouple or drafts around the burner compartment usually cause the pilot to extinguish. First, ensure the furnace door is fully closed and the area around the unit is free of strong air currents. If the pilot still will not stay lit after relighting per the label instructions, turn the gas valve off and do not attempt further adjustments.
How many years does a furnace typically last before needing replacement?
Most furnaces last 15 to 20 years with regular filter changes. In Cleveland Heights, OH winters, heavy use can shorten life if maintenance is skipped. Watch for increasing repair frequency, uneven heating, or higher energy bills after year 15. A cracked heat exchanger, confirmed only by a qualified technician, requires immediate replacement for safety.
Why does my furnace trip the breaker every time it turns on?
A tripped breaker points to an electrical overload, often from a failing blower motor, shorted wiring, or a seized inducer motor. Reset the breaker once, then turn the thermostat up and listen for unusual noises. If it trips again, leave the breaker off and do not attempt further resets to avoid fire risk, especially during Cleveland Heights, OH winter.
