Here are some potential reasons why your furnace is not running:
- The thermostat – Verify that the thermostat is set to heat and the indoor temperature is colder than the setting. Try switching on the fan to force the furnace to blow air. Look for a thermostat error code and make sure the device has fresh batteries.
- The gas line – Check the outdoor shut-off valve to be certain the gas is turned on. If gas is flowing to other appliances, such as the stove, the problem could be the gas supply to the furnace. If you smell gas or suspect a leak, evacuate immediately and call for emergency assistance.
- The furnace – Be sure the furnace is getting power by checking the breaker. If you hear the furnace click, but it doesn’t start up, there could also be an issue with the pilot light or ignitor sensor.
- Airflow – If the furnace is keeping some areas of the home warm while others are cold, there could be a blockage in the duct system. Duct inspection, maintenance, and repairs are best completed by licensed professionals with specialized tools and training.
- Air filters – An easy fix is replacing a clogged air filter. Neglecting air filters can lead to vents and registers becoming obstructed and restricting furnace airflow.
