Whirlpool ATR1242SPP0 Limit Switch
Limit switches were created because if the air is not warm enough the you will lose all the heat as the air flows through the ducts. The limit switch is a type of sensor switch in the heating area that determines when the air is warmed to a point for the blower to be activated.
Key clues of a poorly performing main limit switch
- The HVAC system will not initiate or will not stay running longer than 30 seconds
- The system begins to ramp up but then stops occasionally
