Where does the heat from a furnace keeping your house warm go?

The heat pretty much stays in your house. The heat from the furnace rises (because the molecules have moved apart) and goes to the top of the house. There it cools down, and because it is not more dense, it sinks back down to the furnace where it can be made warm again. All this happens through a process of heat transfer call convection.


Why do you need a furnace to keep your house warm?

A furnace is needed to keep your house warm because it generates heat by burning fuel or using electricity, which is then distributed throughout the house via ductwork or a heat pump system to maintain a comfortable temperature. Furnaces are efficient and effective at heating larger spaces compared to other heating methods.


Why does furnace heat only part of the house?

Possible reasons why a furnace may only heat part of a house could include issues with air ducts such as blockages or leaks, a malfunctioning thermostat not properly regulating temperature throughout the house, or issues with the furnace itself such as a faulty blower motor or burner. It is recommended to have a professional HVAC technician inspect the system to diagnose and resolve the issue.


Does a furnace use radiation conduction or convection how do you know?

All three.A furnace burns something, this creates heat which can dissipate in those 3 ways.All 3 occur:Radiation: the fire radiates heat which can be seen with infrared goggles.Convection: The fire heats up air which rizes and leaves the system.Conduction: The fire heats up the materials of the furnace, causing the heat energy to heat up the air on the outside of the furnace, which in turn convect.


Heat from burning fuel warms the walls of the firebox section of the furnice in?

Heat from burning fuel warms the walls of the firebox section of the furnace. When the temperature is raised to a certain degree, the furnace blower will kick in. Warm air then travels through the furnace ducts and out to the rooms of the house.

Why does a central furnace kick on too much?

There is the possibility it is oversized causing it to heat the house, shut off and restart otherwise known as short cycling. Ideally the furnace would be sized to heat the house at the same rate the house loses heat on a design day.

What is the first step to replacing my electric furnace with a gas furnace?

Meet with your installer to determine the capacity of your new furnace. The furnace capacity should be matched with the size of the house. You want to get a furnace that heats a house without overheating the home. Because your furnace will be newer, it will take less energy to heat your home.

Could a motor home propane forced air furnace heat a 400 sq ft house?

I would say a 40,000 BTU furnace could big enough to heat a 400 SQ ft house, but where have you found a 400 SQ Ft house?


How do you figure how big a furnace do to heat a home?

You take the size of your home in square feet and times it by how many rooms you have. A 70,000 BTU furnace will heat a house 1600 square feet.


If a forced-air furnace heats a house until all the air is the same temperature as the air coming from the furnace then?

Why does your central heat blow cool air when it comes on?

If it`s a heat pump, they do that, heat is not instantaneous with them. If it`s a furnace the fan/limit switch or fan delay timer whichever you have, needs to be adjusted.


Should you leave furnace fan on?

you can leave your furnace fan run continuos, it helps even the heat in the house, it also helps with condensation on windows.
