It’s not a good thing when one your appliances is tripping your circuit breaker, but having your furnace cause difficulties throughout the coldest Lodi days is pretty high on Tokay Heating and Air Conditioning’s list of “Bad Things.” If your furnace is tripping your circuit breaker, it could mean you need a furnace repair. Tokay Heating and Air Conditioning can help you identify what the exact problem is, but here are a few reasons we commonly see: overworked furnaces, short circuits and wiring problems. Regardless what is happening with your furnace, if your circuit breaker is tripping, you need to call in an expert.
Overworked Furnaces
There are several reasons why furnaces can be overworked, but they’re generally preventable. Dirty air filters and blocked or closed vents are often responsible—and those problems can be easily identified and remedied during a preventive maintenance visit. If those are not responsible for your furnace trouble, Tokay Heating and Air Conditioning 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 instantly when you turn it on. If you suspect you have a short circuit in your furnace, call Tokay Heating and Air Conditioning right away for a furnace repair. Short circuits can be very hazardous, causing fires or other serious damages.
Wiring Problems

Regardless of how they got that way, loose wires can cause your furnace to overheat and trip your circuit. Your Tokay Heating and Air Conditioning expert can find and tighten any loose connections and make sure your furnace is operating safely.
