Dead River Company - Manchester's Professional HVAC Services

Regular professional maintenance is key for safety. During a tune-up, our technicians inspect the heat exchanger for any signs of stress or corrosion—common precursors to cracks. We also clean components to ensure proper combustion and airflow, which reduces stress on the heat exchanger and helps prevent premature failures common in our Vermont climate.

Absolutely. The blower motor is a critical part of your propane furnace, circulating warm air throughout your Manchester home. We carry compatible replacement motors and our local technicians are experts in diagnosing and repairing this common failure. A timely repair restores your heat and protects other system components from strain.

Key signs include a strange, metallic odor similar to formaldehyde, soot buildup around the furnace, or visible cracks in the flame. This is a serious safety issue, as cracks can allow carbon monoxide—a dangerous, odorless gas—to leak into your home. If you notice any of these signs, contact us immediately for a safety inspection and repair.
