Which furnace components are most likely to fail and when?

Even with regular maintenance, certain furnace components are more prone to malfunction and breakdown over time. Common issues often arise with ignitors, flame sensors, blower motors, draft inducer motors, and heat exchangers. Typically, ignitors and flame sensors last between four to seven years, while blower motors can function effectively for five to eight years. Draft inducer motors usually last eight to fifteen years, and heat exchangers often endure for at least fifteen years. However, these components can fail earlier than expected. To prevent premature breakdowns and maintain your warranty, it’s crucial to change your filters regularly and schedule annual furnace servicing.
