What Should I Do If My Heater Is Not Working in My House?

If your heater is not working, try a few quick checks, then contact Parrish Services for 24/7 emergency help. Our trained HVAC technicians service furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, and geothermal systems in areas like Reston and McLean.

  • Set thermostat to Heat and 2–3°F higher. Replace batteries.
  • Check the furnace/air handler switch and breaker. Reset once if tripped.
  • Ensure the filter isn’t clogged; replace if dirty.
  • Verify vents are open and return grilles are clear.
  • If you smell gas or burning, stop and call immediately.
  • Ask about our Parrish Priority Service Plan for year‑round maintenance.
