What Should I Do If My Heater Is Not Working in My House?
Start with quick checks. Confirm the thermostat is set to Heat and above room temperature, then try a fresh battery or different setting. Check the furnace switch is ON and the breaker isn’t tripped. Replace a dirty air filter. For gas units, ensure the pilot/ignition status is normal. If you smell burning or hear odd noises, turn the system off and call us.
