Avoid Quick Fixes That May Cause Damage
Don’t open panels or tamper with wiring—HVAC systems can be dangerous. Avoid pouring water, using sharp tools, or trying online “hacks.” Simple mistakes can make repairs more expensive and even risk your safety.
Keep Your Home Comfortable
While you wait, close windows and doors to keep cool air inside or hold in heat if it’s cold. Use ceiling fans to circulate air or wear light clothing in the summer. In winter, gather in one room and use blankets to stay warm.
