When your filters get to dirty they slow the airflow down across your furnace. This causes your furnace to overheat and trip your limit switch inside your furnace.

If your limit isn’t bad this will get you back on the road with no cost outlay.
Flame sensor common repair
If you flame sensor is dirty, flames will light but only for about 8 seconds before turning off. This is because the senor cannot sense the flame is there and shuts off to prevent unlit gas from building up inside the chamber. If this is your furnace repair Eagle Idaho then your flame sensor needs to be cleaned (see previous post “flame sensor” to see what we do). This can be done for little to no cost outlay.
Igniter lights the gas

If you igniter is bad then again the flame sensor cannot sense that the gas is lit so it shuts down your gas flow after 8 seconds. You will know if your igniter is good because it will glow a bright orange just before the gas comes out. If this is your furnace repair Eagle Idaho then the fix is to replace your igniter with a new one and reset your breaker to clear the fault. this repair runs about $160-$180 during regular hours.
