There is nothing worse than waking up in the morning to a cold home, especially in the middle of an Alberta winter. So you begin to fiddle with the thermostat, only to discover that your furnace won’t stay on!
Is it a simple fix, or something bigger? Don’t worry, the repair experts at Action Furnace are here to help.
In today’s blog, we’ll go over the most common reasons your furnace keeps shutting off, and the best way to keep it from happening next year.
Our team specializes in diagnosing and repairing stubborn furnaces quickly and efficiently, so you can get back to enjoying a warm and comfortable home. Let’s begin!
Let’s Do Some Initial Troubleshooting
First, take a deep breath and do some initial troubleshooting. A lot of times, a furnace not producing heat can be caused by simple fixes you can do at home!
- Check your thermostat settings are correct and set to your desired temperature. Also, this is a good time to check the batteries, or if it’s still connected to your wifi (for smart thermostat options).
- Inspect and replace your air filter. If your filter is full to the brim with dust, air can’t flow properly, which will force your furnace to cycle on and off.
- Finally, inspect the pilot light. If it’s gone out, your furnace isn’t going to be able to generate heat. If you’re comfortable doing so, you can relight the pilot light yourself or call a professional in for guidance.
If you’ve gone through these steps and you still can’t feel any relief, then it’s time to call in the experts for a closer look.
Common Causes
Common reasons that your furnace may not be generating heat that require professional attention include:
- A faulty ignition or pilot light
- Overheating or malfunctioning components
- And ventilation issues
