The last thing you want to deal with when the mercury is
hovering around the 18 degree mark is a broken furnace. Not only is it a
hassle, but if your furnace breaks it can literally leave you and your family
out in the cold. We specialize in furnace
repair in Minneapolis, and we have a few suggestions on what to check when
your furnace stops working and before you call us for furnace repair.
Check Your Thermostat
Sometimes when people think their furnace is broken, they
don’t think to check the thermostat. It’s easy to bump into a thermostat and
accidentally reset the set temperature. Take a few seconds to make sure the
temperature on your thermostat is set where you want it to be. If this and the
other suggestions below don’t work, call us about furnace repair.
Check Your Circuit
Breaker
A tripped circuit is a minor problem that can cause big
complications. Check your circuit breaker before you call us for furnace
repair. If you see that the circuit breaker was tripped, simply flick the
switch back to the “on” position and then see if your furnace is working again.
If you see that a fuse is blown, replace the fuse (if you are comfortable doing so)
and then see if your furnace is working.
Check Your Filter
A furnace has a filter in it that needs to be changed on a
regular basis. If you think you need furnace repair, take a few minutes to
check your furnace’s filter before calling us. If you pull it out and it’s
dirty, replace it with a new and clean one and see if your furnace works.
Sometimes, a small repair like this can make a huge difference.
Get Routine
Maintenance
You should have professional furnace repair technicians come
to your home at least once a month to inspect your furnace. We will make sure
it’s in good shape and in good working order for the cold winter months.
