Your furnace is acting funny, and it doesn\u2019t seem like the problem is going to just go away on its own this time.<\/p>\nYour furnace is acting funny, and it doesn\u2019t seem like the problem is going to just go away on its own this time.<\/p>\n
We know, we know\u2026 the last thing you want to do is call in for furnace repair in Brandon, MS.<\/a> Furnaces can be dangerous, so we don\u2019t condone DIY work of any kind on the system itself. At the same time, we don\u2019t think you should have to call us up unless it\u2019s for a good reason.<\/p>\n In this post, we\u2019ll go over some simple things that might fix your furnace issues. Give these a try, but if they don\u2019t yield any good results, don\u2019t wait to call in a professional.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If it has been over a month since you replaced your air filter, it could be clogged with dirt. This can cause your furnace to overheat, as we all as contribute to overall inefficiency.<\/p>\n Simply remove the air filter, hold it up to the light, and see if any light shines through. If not, it\u2019s definitely time to get the filter changed.<\/p>\n Your furnace issues could be as simple as a trick of the thermostat.<\/p>\n Aside from the programming, it\u2019s worth checking if the batteries need to be replaced or if there\u2019s dust on its internal components.<\/p>\n Yes, this is one of those things that\u2019s so simple that people forget about it all the time. The furnace switch often looks just like a normal light switch, and it\u2019s usually installed on the unit itself or on a wall nearby. It may have been switched off on accident. Please do take a look before calling in for repairs, as that can cost you a service fee.<\/p>\n Operating the furnace with the front panel loosened can pose a serious risk, possibly creating a carbon monoxide leak. That\u2019s why this panel is typically equipped with a safety switch that prevents the furnace from running if it\u2019s not secured in place. If your furnace is failing to start, this could be a potential cause.<\/p>\n It could simply be the case that the circuit breaker has tripped. Fixing it is easy enough, as all you have to do is flip the switch, but do take note if the circuit trips again soon. This is an indication that something is wrong with either the furnace or the breaker box itself. Either way, when it comes to electricity, you always want to call in a professional rather than attempt anything on your own.<\/p>\n In this post, we\u2019ll go over some simple things that might fix your furnace issues. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[76],"tags":[92,111],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/481"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=481"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/481\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":485,"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/481\/revisions\/485"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=481"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=481"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.airsouthnow.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=481"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}When Was the Last Time You Checked the Air Filter?<\/h2>\n
