We are making our way through the last several weeks of winter but we still need our furnaces, especially during cold nights. Nothing is worse than going to bed at night just to find out your furnace won’t turn on. If this happens to you, here are a few things you can check yourself before calling Epperson Service Experts.
Check Air Filters
You should change standard air filters each month. If you don’t, they can become clogged, restricting air flow and causing your furnace to malfunction.
Check Your Thermostat
Try turning the temperature up a few degrees to get the furnace to kick on. If the current room temperature is higher than the thermostat, the heating system won’t turn on. Also, confirm the system switch is on “heat” or “auto.”
Check the Power
It may seem silly, but confirm the power switch next to the heating system is “On.” Even gas heating systems use electricity so confirm the breaker has not tripped and that the power switch wasn’t accidently moved to the “Off” position.
If you check all these things and your heating system will still not turn on, give Epperson Service Experts a call at 843-619-3781 and we’ll come out and get you taken care of as soon as possible.
