Investing in the health of your home’s heating system can prevent more expensive repairs from occurring. Catching problems early is always the best strategy for preventing repairs on your furnace, heat pump, or mini-split heating.

There are several reasons a furnace may not be producing warm air. Try these troubleshooting tips that might help solve the problem:

• Make sure your thermostat is set to the right temperature and on the “HEAT” setting.
• See if your furnace air filter is clean. These should be replaced every 3 months. A clogged filter will prevent airflow.
• Is the fresh air intake clear? This will be on the outside of your home. Make sure there is no debris, ice, or snow blocking the intake area.
• If you have an older furnace, check the pilot light. Make sure it is in the ON position and lit.

Your furnace is a complicated appliance that requires expert knowledge to repair. If problems persist after checking the items above, call us to diagnose the problem. You can call Star City 7 days a week.
