Should you attempt furnace repair yourself? Keep in mind that since these systems require a significant amount of energy to run, attempting repairs on your own can jeopardize your safety and that of your family. Working on your system could probably void the warranty by doing the heating repairs yourself. However, when your furnace system isn’t working as it should, there are a few simple steps to do by yourself to troubleshoot the problem.
- First, check that your pilot light is on or that you aren't experiencing an electrical issue. If neither of those is the issue, then call in your NYC furnace repair experts.
- Check the air filters – Dirty or clogged filters will impede airflow. Air filters require frequent changing out.
- Check the vents – Make sure they are clean and not covered by furniture or plants.
- Vacuum around the furnace and its burner compartment to prevent dust buildup. As far as spacing goes, you should allow for at least 2 feet of clearance around your furnace.
- Make sure your temperature is set correctly and to the “heat” setting
- Check the thermostat batteries and settings.
Bad Smells
- If you have a gas furnace and smell rotten eggs, then you have a gas leak and should leave the premises immediately.
- The furnace's pilot should always burn blue. If you ever notice it burning yellow, this is a sign that it's producing too much carbon monoxide, an extremely dangerous gas. Turn it off immediately and call us right away to fix the problem.
- All furnaces make a little bit of noise, but if it's loud and you can hear it from the next room, then something is up and your unit needs an inspection.
If none of these remedies help, it’s time to call in your nearby HVAC specialists at 212 HVAC.

People also ask:
1. Why would a gas furnace stop working?
2. Why is my gas furnace making a noise?
If you hear a loud humming or buzzing sound coming from your furnace, it usually means your furnace has an electrical problem. The most common electrical issues that cause a humming or buzzing sound include: A failing blower motor capacitor, or an aging or unlubricated blower motor.
3. Why does my gas furnace stink?
If the furnace smells like rotten eggs or like a sewer, the smell can indicate a failed heat exchanger, especially if you have a high-efficiency furnace. This is a serious problem because a bad heat exchanger can pump unsafe levels of dangerous carbon monoxide (CO) gas into your home.
