It’s not a good thing when one your appliances is tripping your circuit breaker, but having your furnace cause difficulties throughout the coldest Tuscaloosa days is pretty high on KDM Service Corporation’s list of “Bad Things.” If your furnace is tripping your circuit breaker, you may need a furnace repair. KDM Service Corporation can help you find out what the exact problem is, but here are some reasons we usually see: overworked furnaces, short circuits and wiring problems. No matter what is going on with your furnace, if your circuit breaker is tripping, you need to call in a qualified technician.
Overworked Furnaces
Furnaces become overworked for a number of reasons, but they’re generally preventable. Dirty air filters and blocked or closed vents are often the culprit—and those problems can be easily identified and resolved during a preventive maintenance visit. If that’s not the cause of your furnace trouble, KDM Service Corporation can help you out by doing a furnace repair.
Short Circuits
If you have a short circuit in your furnace, it will trip the breaker promptly when you turn it on. If you think you have a short circuit in your furnace, call KDM Service Corporation right away for a furnace repair. Short circuits can be very hazardous, initiating fires or other serious damages.

Regardless of how they got that way, loose wires can cause your furnace to overheat and trip your circuit.
