My heating and cooling system isn’t working. What should I do?
Here are four things you can check:
- Check the thermostat: Ensure it's set to the desired temperature and mode (heat or cool).
- Inspect the circuit breaker: Verify that the HVAC system's breaker hasn't tripped.
- Replace the air filter: A clogged filter can restrict airflow and cause system issues.
- Clear the outdoor unit: Remove debris like leaves or snow that might obstruct airflow.

Here are four easy things you can do to protect issues:
- Change filters every 1–3 months.
- Schedule annual professional inspections for both heating and cooling systems.
- Keep the area around your outdoor unit clean and free from obstructions.
- Seal any leaks in ductwork to improve efficiency.
