What Does the Blinking Light on My Heating System Mean?
Your heater relies on lights to flash code when it isn’t working right. It also uses this setup to tell you it’s operating properly.
Normal heating consists of:
- Simultaneous slow flash—heating system working correctly.
- Simultaneous fast flash—heating system is starting to call for heat.
If you see a solitary light going on and off slowly and the other flashing fast, your heating system might be experiencing a low flame signal. This can occur even when your heater is heating properly. It means the flame sensing rod might need to be cleaned or in the bad area on the burner. Contact us at 570-648-0748 for help.
Here are some of the most routine issues for Lennox HVAC systems.
