Homeowner Maintenance Guidance for Cleveland Residents

Ensure all exterior combustion vents have protective concentric or downward-facing elbows, maintain clean return air registers, and never turn down your thermostat below 60°F when traveling in winter to prevent freezing domestic pipes.

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 Cleveland home, especially outside sleeping areas.
