What Should I Do If My Heater Is Not Working in My House?

Start with a few quick checks. If the heater still won’t run, T.E. Spall & Son offers emergency HVAC service. We service furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, and ductless systems in Scranton and Lake Ariel.

• Set thermostat to Heat and 3–5 degrees higher; replace batteries.
• Check the furnace switch and circuit breaker.
• Replace a dirty air filter.
• For gas units, verify gas is on; do not relight if you smell gas.
• For heat pumps, clear snow or debris from the outdoor unit.
