THE FURNACE WON'T TURN ON

Heating Troubleshooting

 

1. Check the Furnace switch  - in your mechanical room there is a furnace switch, (looks like a light switch, sometimes in red) make sure the switch is in the ON position

 

2. Check the electrical panel - make sure that the furnace breaker is on. 

 

3. Check the furnace filter - dirty filters will significantly restrict air flow and in some cases prevent the furnace from coming on.

 

4. Check your Thermostat - Make sure it is set to "Heating" and try setting the temperature at least 5 degrees higher than the current room temperature. If your thermostat requires batteries, replace them.

 

5. Properly secure the front panel on the Furnace - some will not operate if the panel is not pressed in all the way.

 

6. Ensure the vents and Registers are open and unblocked - If the furnace is running but your rooms are not getting warmer, make sure there are no rugs, furniture etc blocking the supply and return vents in your home.
