Why is my heater fan making noise like an airplane
I turned on my heater yesterday and it sounded like an airplane was landing. When I first turned it on, the fan was making a lot of noice - like it was having a hard time starting up. The heater worked and was blowing warm air, but the fan was noisy. Last year we had the same sound and we took the squirrel cage out, cleaned it up a bit and put it back. It worked fine until yesterday when it started making that noise again. Am I looking at a new furnace? What is an approximately price range? Is the price based upon the square footage of the home?

Is this an older model with a belt drive? They typically have oil cups. Make sure belt is tensioned properly. Furnaces are relatively inexpensive unless you get a fancy multi stage and multi speed. Get a basic 82% IF needed. Not exactly based on square footage but that enters into the factoring. Window, shading, external heat load, location etc, impact size.

My name is Dalton and Saturday night my heater started making a loud humming noise and it is the loudest at the return air vent. The burner ignites and then when the fan is supposed to go on, it hums and after a minute or so, the burner shuts down.
When I turn on the hot water I hear a thumping or low banging noise which lasts for about a minute and will repeat after a few hours when the hot water is used. This only happens when hot water is first used. I have checked the unit and at this time the unit is not heating water nor has ignition...
Hi, my question is why is my new fan with light attachment makes a humming noise when I turn off light but keep fan running. Type of switch that is on the wall is a dimer.
I have a Harbor Breeze ceiling fan and a few months ago it started making a really loud humming sound all of the time. I have no idea how to fix it. We tried WD 40 but nothing changed. Please help, the noise is driving me crazy!
