No-Heat Checklist
- Fuel Tank: Check the gauge to see if you need a heating oil refill, and if you do, give us a call.
- Thermostat: Make sure your setting is on HEAT, and the cooling function is not on instead.
- Switches: Check that all furnace and emergency switches are on.
- Fuses: The fuse box for the burner is usually near the electric meter. Replace any blown fuses or reset the breaker.
