Furnace not heating in Tampa
If your furnace is not heating your Tampa home, this guide covers safe observations, one common maintenance-related possibility, and when to use a furnace repair professional.
What to check first
Confirm the thermostat is set to heat and check whether the furnace filter is dirty. ENERGY STAR advises homeowners to inspect, clean, or change central HVAC filters about once a month because a dirty filter can raise energy use and damage equipment. Do not open electrical equipment, work on gas systems, or dismantle the furnace.
What may be causing the problem
A dirty filter is one possible explanation and can affect equipment performance. Other causes are possible, but identifying them safely may require a professional inspection. Notice whether the furnace is blowing cold air, making an unusual sound, or producing an unusual smell, and share those details with the technician.
When to call for furnace repair
Contact a furnace repair professional if the home still is not warming after safe checks, if the furnace repeatedly stops working, or if you notice unusual sounds or smells. Do not investigate gas or electrical problems yourself. If you smell gas, leave the area as appropriate and contact the relevant emergency service rather than operating or opening the furnace.
