Possible Causes
Dirty or damaged burner, Incorrect gas/air ratio, Worn fan bearings, Resonance in flue system
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Combustion adjustments must be performed by a qualified technician.
- Check for loose panels: Ensure all casing panels are securely fastened; loose panels can vibrate and amplify noise.
- Inspect fan: Listen near the fan area. Grinding or rumbling suggests worn bearings and the fan should be replaced.
- Burner inspection: A technician should remove and inspect the burner for damage or contamination and clean or replace it.
- Combustion tuning: Have a professional perform flue gas analysis and adjust gas/air settings to eliminate whistling or roaring.
- Flue supports: Ensure the flue is properly supported to prevent vibration and resonance.
