  1. Check thermostat batteries and settings; replace batteries if needed.
  2. Note any error codes on the furnace, boiler or outdoor unit display.
  3. Photograph the outdoor condenser or indoor unit nameplate if safe.
  4. Keep clearances around outdoor units; do not run obviously damaged equipment.
  5. Contact your insurer if storm damage may be involved.
