How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Before resetting breakers, ensure there is no burning smell or visible damage.

  • 1. Check breaker: Locate the furnace breaker in the electrical panel and reset if tripped. If it trips again immediately, do not continue resetting—call a technician.
  • 2. Verify service switch: Ensure the furnace disconnect or light switch near the Thermia furnace is in the ON position.
  • 3. Inspect access door switch: Many Thermia furnaces have a door switch that cuts power when the panel is removed. Make sure the panel is properly installed and engaging the switch.
  • 4. Check control board fuse: With power off, remove the access panel and inspect the low-voltage fuse on the control board. Replace only with the same rating after checking for shorts.
  • 5. If still dead: The transformer or control board may have failed and should be tested and replaced by a professional.
