== == Just an idea....I would check your filiter to make sure it is clean. When ours needed changing, our a/c kept kicking on and off. I think it was working so hard to get air through the filter, that it kicked off due to overworking. It would then try again, and the same thing kept happening. It drives you nuts! Once we changed the filter, it worked normally. == ==

Fixing Your Furnace?

When the furnace in your home goes out, there are a few things that you need to look at before you get a new furnace. Get the furnace serviced by a professional electrician who will check the heating coils as well as the filter in the furnace. Check the circuit breakers in the furnace to ensure that they are working properly. If the breaker is not making contact, this could be all that you need to replace.
