There may be a simple explanation, and we want to help you sort through a few of those possibilities\u2014as well as look at the more serious cases where you\u2019ll definitely need our professional assistance!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Thermostat issues<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend you always check the thermostat settings when you have a furnace that won\u2019t heat the house. Yes, it sounds basic, but sometimes the basic solution is the easiest to overlook. If changing the settings doesn\u2019t get the furnace to work, the issue could also be that the thermostat has lost its connection to the furnace and isn\u2019t telling it to turn on. This will need professional repairs to correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tripped circuit breaker<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a gas furnace, you might think that it doesn\u2019t need electricity to run. But it does! Most furnaces use electronic ignition systems now, and all furnaces have an electrically powered blower motor and control board. Check the electrical panel for the house to see if the furnace\u2019s breaker has tripped and reset it if it is. If the breaker trips multiple times, let our technicians find out what\u2019s wrong.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Clogged air filter<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The clogged air filter is the bane of a furnace\u2019s operation: it causes numerous problems, including the furnace not coming on at all. If the furnace\u2019s filter is clogged, put in a clean one and see if this fixes things. (Even if it doesn\u2019t, you needed to change the filter anyway.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Failed electronic ignition system<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As we mentioned above, most modern furnaces use an electronic ignition system to light the burners. These replaced the old standing pilot lights. These igniters work similarly to lightbulbs in that they heat up filaments with electrical current to create the energy to light the burners. And, like a lightbulb, they can fail and need to be replaced. You\u2019ll want professionals to handle this service.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Gas flow problems<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The furnace may not be turning on because gas isn\u2019t reaching the burners. This may be due to a blocked gas line or broken gas valves, or it may be a faulty safety precaution is preventing gas flow. Whatever the reason, working with gas lines of any kind is hazardous for people who aren\u2019t trained for it, so this is where you\u2019ll especially appreciate professional service.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Broken control board<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The control board is the central switching station and \u201cbrain\u201d of the furnace, containing the circuits and relays that ensure the furnace components operate in conjunction. The control board can have dirty relays, loose wires, or burnt-out parts that will cause furnace failure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are unsure why your furnace isn\u2019t working, trust that our experts will find the source of the problem and have your house warm once more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Premier Heating &amp; Air Has Been Family-Owned &amp; Operated Since 2001. <\/strong><a href=\"\/contact-us\/schedule-service\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Call Us Today to Experience the Premier Difference!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are unsure why your furnace isn\u2019t working, trust that our experts will find the source of the problem and have your house warm once more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[116,76],"tags":[88,99,98,50],"class_list":["post-500","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-conyers","category-heating-service","tag-conyers","tag-furnace-repair","tag-gas-furnaces","tag-heating-system-repair"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=500"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/500\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=500"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=500"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.premierishere.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=500"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
