Why Your Heater Keeps Turning On and Off

Monday, January 17th, 2022

If your furnace keeps turning on and off repeatedly, cycling too quickly between the heating cycle and the resting or cool-down period, you have a short-cycling problem. Short-cycling wastes energy and actually damages the furnace by causing it to run at above normal temperatures for an extended period of time. This can lead to breakdowns and costly repairs.

This cycling is necessary because climate control isn’t like flipping a switch, and a “constant” temperature doesn’t really exist as far as your furnace is concerned. When it happens too frequently, though, your furnace is likely out of whack.
