How a Low-Fire Pressure Switch Works
Two-stage furnaces have multiple pressure switches to allow the system to run at different speeds—and use less energy. These switches also guarantee your furnace runs safely and vents extra gases from the heat exchanger.
What Happens When a Low-Fire Pressure Switch Fails
Your low pressure switch may not be operating correctly if your furnace inducer motor switches on in high speed and high ignition, then weakens and changes into low-fire mode about 30 seconds later.
Your furnace will demonstrate something’s wrong 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 observe fast flashes or an alternating slow flash as it reports a fault code.
