Is a ductless heat pump worth it with baseboard heat?+

Get everyone outside to fresh air and call 911 or your gas utility's emergency line. Do not go back in until responders say it is safe, then have the heating system inspected.
Why does my furnace turn on and then shut off?+
A dirty flame sensor, a blocked vent or intake, a clogged filter or an overheating heat exchanger are common causes. The control board's blink code helps a tech narrow it down.
