Don\u2019t start fretting too much just yet, though. There are some potentially simple causes and solutions for this problem, such as:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polarbearairconditioning.com\/air-conditioning\/thermostats\">thermostat<\/a> may be set too low or on the wrong setting. Yes, it seems obvious, but sometimes the solution is staring you right in the face. Check that your thermostat is set high enough to call for heat and that it is on HEAT mode.<\/li>\n<li>A circuit breaker may be tripped or a fuse may be blown. It could be the one dedicated to the thermostat, glow coil igniter or furnace itself. Check the breaker or fuse box in your home and either flip the breaker or replace the fuse. If it continues to trip or blow, get it looked at professionally\u2014there may be a bigger problem going on.<\/li>\n<li>The thermostat may not be working, so it is either improperly detecting the temperature or improperly reporting it to the furnace, so the heat does not kick on. Either way, it probably needs to be replaced.<\/li>\n<li>The furnace is not igniting properly. This could mean the pilot light is out on furnaces without electric ignition, the gas valve is closed and can\u2019t ignite or some other ignition malfunction. Check the pilot and gas valves to make sure they are on and working.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If you have checked all these things and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.polarbearairconditioning.com\/air-conditioning\/thermostats\">thermostat<\/a> still is not working, or if you don\u2019t feel comfortable looking into these causes on your own, you are best served by calling a professional Washington heating technician\u00a0to diagnose and fix the furnace.<\/p>\n<p>Often, these big failures are just the symptom of a smaller problem, so in all likelihood you won\u2019t have to replace the furnace or do any major repairs, especially if it has been well-maintained throughout its life.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polarbearairconditioning.com\/contact\">Call\u00a0Polar Bear Air Conditioning and Heating<\/a> today if you need heating repairs in the\u00a0Washington area!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you Washington home&#8217;s furnace stops producing heat, it may seem like a total emergency, and the combination of chill and frustration may cause panic to set in.
