    My central Heating system keeps throwing the circuit breaker
    I have an electric central heating unit and it keeps tripping the breaker. I had a professional come out and he replaced the breaker but that didn't fix the problem. Any ideas?

    Too much current is being drawn by the unit or something is wrong with the electric supply. The professional needs to come back and fix it correctly.
