Your furnace will create water as part of its normal operating process. Typically, this condensed water will drain through various pipes and/or hoses, but there are times that you’ll see water elsewhere. Read further to find out about reasons water will come out of your furnace and onto the floor of your home in Clinton, MS.
Clogs in Pipes and/or Hoses
It’s relatively common for clogs to form in hoses and pipes due to buildup from the particulates in the water. When the buildup blocks the hose or pipe, the water flows backwards and out onto the floor. One of our professional service technicians will be able to clean out these pipes and/or hoses for you as part of a repair.
Faulty Inducer Assembly
The inducer is the component that starts up shortly before the furnace itself turns on. The idea is for it to empty waste gas from the furnace and blow fresh air into it. This process causes condensation, which should flow into a drain hose or pipe, but if the assembly has a crack, it’ll leak water onto the floor.
Broken Humidifier
Not all furnaces have humidifiers. If your furnace has a humidifier, it’s possible for it to leak water if something is amiss. One of our professional service technicians will be able to tell you if you have a humidifier and inform you if it’s causing your water problem.
