The furnace… yeah, it has been cycling and not actually heating the home, I have to come downstairs in turn it off at the switch on the furnace itself, wait, then restart it. We’ve never had it serviced or cleaned, so he cleaned it, wiped it down, check the gas pressure, exchange, pilot, and flame detector… seems to be better, $90 later… but a pro did it and he checked the stuff that I/we could not.
The thing would turn off in the middle of the night and it would be about 56 degrees (or lower in the dead of winter) throughout the home. I got nervous, and tired, of having to go down there and reset it all the time. I was worried about the kids, the safety of the furnace, and my own sanity of another winter having to do this about 3-4 times per week. Worth the $90 I think. I hope.
So far, so good. We’ve have some cool nights and the furnace has been fine, I have not heard it cycle at all, so the safety and comfort I think has been worth the $90.
