Heating System Maintenance

• It’s Murphy’s Law – Your heating unit will fail:
• During the lowest chill factor and coldest day of the year
• During the holidays
• When you or a family member are sick with the flu, or…

You don’t have to dress like an Eskimo in your own home! When it comes to a major integral component of your home, like your furnace, there are hundreds of reasons why an inspection and tune-up of your furnace is necessary on a yearly basis, but here are five:

1. To ensure the highest possible energy efficiency and reliability.
2. To see that the thermostat setting you want is the thermostat setting you’re getting.
3. To maintain safe, efficient and environmentally friendly use of fuels.
4. To see that your system has adequate air flow.
5. To Save You Money.

What are the top no-heat service calls?

• Clogged or dirty air filter
• A dirty flame sensor
• Furniture is backed up against a return vent
• High limit safety shut-downs
• Blower motor failure caused by stress due to lack of maintenance
• Over RPMing due to no load of air
• Water or condensate leaking on critical circuit boards
• Rodents (birds, raccoons, chipmunks, snakes, mice, insects) chewing, urinating or nest building, etc..

This covers your furnace, but what about your water heater? Our technician monitors for back-drafting to avoid low-level carbon monoxide caused by orphaned water heaters. This is a serious threat to the learning ability of children and short-term memory losses in adults.

FAQ

Is there anything I can check myself before I call you for service?

Yes. Make sure the thermostat is on and your equipment is getting power. There is a power switch on the furnace and a service disconnect on the air conditioner. Also, check your building’s breaker or fuse box. If all of these things are functioning properly and your issue still exists, you probably need to call for assistance.
