Homeowner Maintenance Guidance for Portsmouth Residents

In Portsmouth, 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 Shelby 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 Portsmouth home, especially outside sleeping areas.
