How to Stay Warm When Waiting for Furnace Repair

  • Gather in One Place – One thing you can do to stay warm while you wait for furnace repair is to gather everyone into one room, then close the doors to all the rooms you are not using. This helps concentrate everyone’s body heat into a small area, which will raise the temperature of the room, and it prevents heat from spreading into the empty rooms.
  • Cook Hot Meals and Beverages – Another think you can do to warm up while waiting for furnace repair is to cook hot meals or beverages using your oven or stove. Running these appliances will raise the ambient temperature of the room, and the hot food and drinks will help you warm up inside, too.
  • Cover Windows and Floors – A third way you can stay warm while waiting for furnace repair services to be completed is to close your curtains and cover any tile floors with rugs or blankets. Covering your windows and floors helps trap heat in the room instead of letting it leak out through these weak points.
