In River Forest, keep spare furnace filters on hand all winter, mark your exterior vent locations before the first heavy snow so they can be cleared quickly, and never ignore a furnace that starts short-cycling during a cold snap in Cook County.

Check Thermostat Setting:Confirm the system switch is set to "HEAT" and the fan is on "AUTO" to avoid room-temperature air circulating between cycles.
Inspect Filter Condition:Clogged return filters cause heat to build up inside the plenum, tripping the high-temperature limit switch and locking out burners.
Test Carbon Monoxide Alarms:Install and test digital CO detectors on every level of your River Forest home, especially outside sleeping areas.
