How a Low-Fire Pressure Switch Works
Two-stage furnaces have various pressure switches to help the system to run at different speeds—and be more efficient. These switches also make sure your furnace runs safely and vents extraneous gases from the heat exchanger.
What Happens When a Low-Fire Pressure Switch Malfunctions
Your low pressure switch may not be working right if your furnace inducer motor switches on in high speed and high ignition, then loses speed and shifts into low-fire mode about 30 seconds after.
Your system will demonstrate something’s not right with a red flash from its indicator light, which it uses to display error codes. It has this red light to flash code, like Morse code.
You may see fast flashes or an alternating slow flash as it announces a fault code.
Estimated Repair Cost for Furnace Error Code 229
A blocked vent or a draft can also trigger the error, so your Gordon's Service Experts Expert will check other parts of your furnace first.
The price to fix your furnace depends on what’s wrong with it and how long it takes to remedy it.
You can expect to pay between $40 and $350 if you have to have a new low-fire pressure switch.
