It’s never a good thing to have an appliance trip your circuit breaker, but having your furnace cause difficulties during the coldest Bend days is pretty high on Tri County Climate Control LLC’s list of “Bad Things.” If your furnace is tripping your circuit breaker, it could mean you need a furnace repair. Tri County Climate Control LLC can help you determine what the exact problem is, but here are a few reasons we commonly see: overworked furnaces, short circuits and wiring problems. Regardless what is taking place with your furnace, if your circuit breaker is tripping, you need to call in a qualified technician.
Overworked Furnaces
There are a variety of explanations as to why your furnace becomes overworked, 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 remedied during a preventive maintenance visit. If that isn’t the reason for your furnace trouble, Tri County Climate Control LLC can help you out by executing a furnace repair.
Short Circuits
If you have a short circuit in your furnace, it will trip the breaker immediately when you turn it on. If you suspect you have a short circuit in your furnace, call Tri County Climate Control LLC right away for a furnace repair. Short circuits can be very dangerous, initiating fires or other serious damages.

No matter how they got that way, loose wires can force your furnace to overheat and trip your circuit.
