Listen for the various sounds it makes, how long it stays on and where everything is. If you take a few minutes to prepare, you’ll be much better prepared if something goes wrong. If you’re unsure where things are, ask your service technician for a tour on the next maintenance inspection. Read on for Rocky’s No Heat Checklist for Forced Air Furnaces.
