What Is a Furnace and How Does It Work?

Air conditioner unit that can switch to become a heating unit

A furnace is the heart of your home’s heating system — it heats air and distributes it through ducts to keep every room warm during Oregon’s cold months. Most homes in Salem use a gas furnace, which burns natural gas to create heat and then circulates that air through your vents using a blower motor.

Modern furnaces are designed to be safer, quieter, and far more energy-efficient than older models. With proper maintenance, a high-quality gas furnace can last 15–20 years while keeping your home comfortable and your utility bills low.

At HVAC Ministries, we’ve helped countless families in Salem, Keizer, and across the Willamette Valley choose the right heating and cooling system for their home.

Question 1: Why is my furnace blowing cold air?

Common culprits: a clogged filter tripping a high-limit switch, thermostat set to “On” (fan only), or a gas/ignition issue. Start by replacing the filter and setting the fan to “Auto.” If heat doesn’t return, it’s time for a pro diagnostic.

Question 2: What causes furnace “short-cycling” (turning on/off quickly)?

Usually overheating from poor airflow (dirty filter, blocked returns, undersized/dirty ductwork) or a faulty limit. Oversized equipment can also short-cycle. Short-cycling wastes energy and shortens equipment life—get it checked.

Question 3: How often should I change the furnace filter?

Rule of thumb: every 1–3 months for 1" filters—more often with pets, smoke, construction dust, or allergies. Higher-capacity media filters (3–5") last longer but still need routine checks. Clean filters protect the heat exchanger and improve IAQ.

Question 4: How long does a gas furnace last—and when should I replace it?

Most gas furnaces last 15–20 years with proper maintenance. Consider replacement sooner if repairs are frequent, energy bills spike, or the heat exchanger/major components are failing.

Question 5: Is a cracked heat exchanger dangerous?

It can be—a crack may allow combustion gases (including CO) to mix with supply air. Install working CO detectors and have a licensed tech evaluate; replacement is often the safest path.

Question 6: Do I really need annual furnace maintenance? What can I do myself?

Yes, annual pro service keeps efficiency high and prevents breakdowns. DIY essentials: replace filters, keep returns/supply vents clear, vacuum around the furnace, and listen for new noises/odors. Schedule a professional combustion/safety check before peak season.

Question 7: Should I repair or replace my older furnace?

If the unit is 10–15+ years old and a repair is ~30–40% of replacement cost, upgrading often wins on safety, reliability, and monthly bills—especially with current rebates/financing. Look for signs like frequent repairs, uneven heat, and rising utility spend.
