Things to check before calling
There are a few things you should check before calling for service. These items may seem obvious, but we commonly receive repair calls over these simple issues.
• Check your thermostat settings. Be sure the temperature is set above the current room temperature, and the system switch is on HEAT or AUTO and the fan switch is set to ON or AUTO. If your thermostat requires batteries, make sure they are fresh.
• Try raising the thermostat to the highest temperature setting possible.
• Check the filter. Dirty filters can cause a furnace to shut down.
• Make sure the furnace door is securely shut. A sensor may shut down a system with a loose door.
• Make sure the furnace switch is on. It is usually located on a wall outside the furnace room.
• Open all registers and make sure nothing is blocking them.
• Check for a tripped circuit breaker or blown fuse. If this happens more than once, you have a problem.
• If your system has a pilot light, make sure it is on. See if the manufacturer has relighting instructions on your system.
Furnace repair vs. replacement
On average, furnaces are expected to last 15-20 years. So if your furnace is approaching the 15 year mark, you may want to consider replacing it rather than repairing it.
