Why Your Furnace Could Be Leaking 

Finding water surrounding your furnace is a homeowner’s worst dream. Is it an HVAC (heating, ventilation, air conditioning) problem or plumbing problem? It’s hard to confirm without an expert doing an inspection, but Service Experts Heating, Air Conditioning & Plumbing is here with a couple HVAC issues that could cause a leaky furnace.

Condensation

Standard-efficiency heating equipment should not produce condensation so if yours does, it could be that the flue pipe was not sized correctly. The heated exhaust could be cooling and condensing inside the pipe, then streaming back into your heating equipment and leaking out.

Clogged Drain

The condensation from a high-efficiency furnace usually flows out to a floor drain. If there is blockage in the tubing or the floor drain, it could cause a leak around your furnace. A seasonal tune-up from a furnace repair technician should help avoid this problem from occurring. Unfortunately, neglecting furnace maintenance might make you end up with a clogged drain, resulting in floor, ceiling, or other damage to the home.

Humidifier

This issue should be caught with routine heating tune-ups, but if your heating equipment is leaking water, the humidifier might be leaking inside the heating equipment. Water leaking into your heating equipment can cause serious damage to the internal parts so it’s ideal to call your furnace service company as soon as possible if you think this could be your issue.
