Modern furnace systems provide all of the comfort and efficiency a homeowner could ever want. They are strong, dependable, and are exceptional at keeping our Maryland winters at bay. But when you begin to take the system apart and really look deep, a furnace is essentially a collection of components and connections all working in-tandem to perform a heating function. And each and every component within the system is vulnerable to unique issues and repair concerns.

Signs You May Need to Replace Your Blower Fan
First off, let’s get a bit more specific. When talking about a blower fan, someone could be referencing one of two things. Most often, we’re actually talking about your blower motor, the component responsible for governing the movement of air within your furnace system. You may also be referring to the fan itself as well, which is far less common, as the fan is a simple part that doesn’t encounter much in the way of issues on its own.
So what kind of problems can a blower fan assembly encounter? Let’s go over the most common issues you may spot:
- Your furnace is running, but your home remains cool or cold. This is one of the clearest, and often the first and most common problem you can encounter with a blower assembly malfunction. What’s happening here is that your furnace is still operating and generating warmth, but the blower is not circulating the air, and most probably has ceased functioning or has overheated.
- Odd sounds within your furnace system. A damaged or malfunctioning blower will often generate a lot of loud, grating sound. This could be squeaking and squealing from the belt located in the system, or it may be a louder, more insidious clunk or bang. No matter the sound or source, you’ll need professional furnace repair immediately for this, otherwise you might be looking at a total furnace replacement in the near future!
- Fan damage. The belt in your fan assembly is quite similar to one you may find in your vehicle; and similarly it can begin to age or wear out, producing cracks and damage on the fan belt. Your furnace can often continue to function if this is your problem, but if you leave it alone, you’ll soon wind up with a total furnace breakdown.
