It’s never a good thing to have an appliance trip your circuit breaker, but having your furnace cause difficulties during the coldest the Rio Grande Valley days is pretty high on Cytech Heating & Cooling L.C.’s list of “Bad Things.” If your furnace is tripping your circuit breaker, it could mean you need a furnace repair. Cytech Heating & Cooling L.C. can help you identify what the exact problem is, but here are some reasons we commonly see: overworked furnaces, short circuits and wiring problems. It doesn’t matter what is happening with your furnace, if your circuit breaker is tripping, you need to call in a qualified technician.
Overworked Furnaces
There are several reasons why furnaces can be overworked, but they’re usually preventable. Dirty air filters and blocked or closed vents are often to blame—and those problems can be easily identified and remedied during a preventive maintenance visit. If those are not responsible for your furnace trouble, Cytech Heating & Cooling L.C. can help you out by performing 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 Cytech Heating & Cooling L.C. right away for a furnace repair. Short circuits can be very hazardous, causing fires or other serious damages.

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