The thermostat requires a major notch up to produce heat.
If one finds their home cold on a regular basis the thermostat may be faulty culprit as well as possible leaking ducts. Another issue could be a problem with one’s pilot light.
Sky high electric bills
High electric bills often is a sign of inefficient performance.
The pilot light is yellow

A furnace repair may be needed to replace a thermostat, fix faulty wiring, or repair a pilot light, or a fan motor.

Condensation is seen inside of the house

One’s furnace is past ten years old
If one’s furnace is over ten years old it may be cheaper to purchase a new one and save costs on repairs over the course of the several years following the ten-year anniversary of the furnace.
