Karaniwang pagkakamali:
Learners sometimes confuse 'furnace' with 'oven'. A furnace heats an entire building, while an oven is for cooking food. Another mistake is saying 'on the furnace' when talking about the device’s location; use 'in the furnace room' or 'next to the furnace', not 'on the furnace'. In British English, 'boiler' is more common than 'furnace' for home heating systems.
