What Does the Flashing Light on My Heater Mean?

Your heating system depends on lights to flash code when it is malfunctioning. It also works this system to tell you it’s operating correctly.

Regular heating involves:

  • Concurrent slow flash—heating system heating properly.
  • Both lights flash fast—furnace is starting to call for heat.

This can take place even when your heater is heating correctly. It indicates the flame sensing rod could be dirty or in the incorrect area on the burner. Call us at 515-207-6569 for assistance.
