My furnace is on the fritz...

[JulesMaximus]

Came home yesterday and the found that the furnace wouldn't come on. The unit is a Payne 4 ton forced air unit and is located in our garage. I found it is throwing a code 31 according to the panel but I have no idea what that means. I just know it got down to 64 degrees in our house last night which is pretty good considering it was in the 40s last night outside.

Time to call a professional I guess. Hope I can get someone out here today!

Tell them you have children in the house...

They'll put you to the top of the list 🙂

(like I said in the other thread) ... 64F is what I keep it at year-round. When my burner was failing, it dropped to 59F and that's when I noticed cause I couldn't feel my fingers.

Oh and some people won't understand

Normally I wouldn't care and we rarely used the heat in the wintertime before my son was born but since he is only 2 1/2 I really can't keep the house that cold. I opened up all the blinds to get some sun in here today so I won't come home to a 60 degree house this evening.
