Is the furnace running when you get up? Is this a new problem? Is it unusually cold outside?

Nope it is not on when I wake up.
Brrrr. It's frigid here in Michigan. Just moved into this condo a few weeks ago.

No
Just moved in a couple of weeks ago so it has been here since I moved in.
It is freezing outside.

What do you have to do to make the heat come on? Are you sure the stat is still set for 70 & is not programed to set back to a lower temperature at night?

Yes it's set to hold temp. at 70.
Also came home today and it was at 65 and stat was set to 70.

If the condo has a maint. Person, I'd get them to look at the heater. If they don' have any maint. People, you may have to call your own.

Can you get the heat to come on by turning the stat up? If so, it could be an error in the stat.
