Why did my heater stop working all of a sudden?
There could be an issue with the thermocouple (it may be loose or faulty), the orifice could be clogged or jammed or the flame may be set too low. If none of those seem to be the problem, there could be a problem with the safety valve.

Why does my air conditioner keep turning off?
Short cycling is when your air conditioner turns on and off again in very short bursts without completing a full cooling cycle. When filters are blocked your AC unit has to work harder, creating higher energy bills and unevenly cooling your home. It may even cause your air conditioning system to stop working.
Why is my central heat and air unit not working?
Clear any debris around the air conditioner. Leaves and tree branches can block the flow and cause the unit to malfunction. Cleaning it regularly as part of AC maintenance helps prevent problems. Call the utility company to see if there is a problem with your account or if there is an outage in the area.
What to do if your air conditioner won’t start?
If you want to test it, set it for a low temperature, so that the AC unit would start right away. Make sure you set it to “cool” and not “heat”! If that doesn’t work, either replace the thermostat’s batteries or look for a dedicated thermostat or AC switch on your circuit breaker.
Why is my air conditioner not blowing cold air?
If your AC system turns on but doesn’t blow out cold air, ensure all the vents are open and the thermostat is set properly. If these aren’t the problem, check the air filter. If it’s clogged with dirt or other debris, you won’t get any air flow.
