If your furnace isn’t working properly, there are steps you can take to troubleshoot before calling for professional assistance. First, make sure the thermostat is set to the temperature you want. Check if the thermostat’s batteries need changing and replace them if necessary.Next, inspect the air filter for any dirt or debris. If it’s clogged, replace it to prevent airflow issues that can lead to the furnace overheating and shutting down. Ensure that the vents are clear of any obstructions like furniture or objects and that they are open and unblocked.
Check the circuit breaker to see if the furnace circuit has tripped. Reset the breaker if needed. For older gas furnaces, check the pilot light. If it’s out, follow the instructions in your owner’s manual to relight it.
If your furnace runs on gas, ensure that the gas supply is uninterrupted. Check for a closed gas valve and open it if necessary. Try resetting the system by turning the furnace off and then on again. Give it a few minutes to restart and recalibrate.
