Flickering or Yellow Flame<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If your furnace flame is flickering or\nyellow, it\u2019s most likely because of air in your gas line. You can check for\nperspective by turning off all of your house\u2019s burners. Turn them clockwise\nuntil they don\u2019t turn anymore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then look at each burner with a\nflashlight. If you see any flicker or yellow flame, there\u2019s probably an air\npocket; try gently tapping on your pipe just before each burner with a hammer\nto push out the air bubble. Once you do, your flame should go back to blue and\nsteady. If not, call a professional right away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
