How to fix common heating and cooling issues



There is absolutely nothing worse than awakening cold in the middle of the night.


Its one thing if you simply need to pull the conceal. Its a whole various problem if your heater is working poorly or not working at all.


With a little do-it-yourself experience you can repair and fix your heater yourself. Your best option though is to have a maintenance check list for your heating system to avoid the issue.


Today I have something that will make you seem like you have the knowledge to tackle some heater repairs.

Make sure it is remaining in the "On" position.


This will reset the breaker. If this does not do the technique you have a problem with either the wiring in the circuit or the breaker itself.



The heater is not producing sufficient heat. Check and change a clogged up filter.


A furnace that struggles to produce heat is a various matter from one that has somehow quit working.


When it comes to a poor-performing heating system that does not heat the home adequately first ensure that the air filter is clean and in excellent condition if not brand-new.

Filters clean the air headed into the furnace and the heated air returned into the house. A dirty blocked filter restricts the airflow ultimately triggering heat and pressure to construct up in the heater.


Newer more efficient heating systems are sensitive to the issue and will often close down before an unclean filter causes more trouble. For other systems the heater will continue to run but with less heat output and reduced efficiency.
