Plan Your Annual Furnace Inspection for the Fall

Regular furnace inspections have many benefits. A furnace that’s not properly maintained can break down and cost you a lot of money in repairs, not to mention potentially exposing you and your family to dangers like carbon monoxide leaks and leaving you sitting for long periods of time without heat.

Prevent Furnace Breakage and Extend Its Life

Over time, without annual inspections and maintenance to verify your furnace, your furnace can be exposed to more wear and tear. This can result in excess strain on your home heating system. Scheduling just this one appointment each year could help your furnace last longer and limit its repair costs in the long run. In fact, simple yearly maintenance will help ensure that your unit continues to operate safely and effectively. Having your home’s heating system serviced at the beginning of each heating season helps ensure your equipment is operating at peak efficiency and not working harder than it has to, possibly extending its life. An inspection can also catch potential small issues before they become big ones.

A Furnace Inspection Can Improve Efficiency

Over time, dirt can build up in your heating equipment. That can cause extra strain, make your furnace burn more fuel and make it less effective at heating up your home. The solution? Cleaning the filter system, blower, and motor can help ensure that your furnace is operating at its peak efficiency. Just as importantly, it can help avoid nasty surprise breakdowns that can lead to costly repairs. A complete checkup can help make sure your heating system is working properly. The furnace pulls air through a filter, but over time, the filter can become clogged with airborne particles, forcing the furnace to work harder than it was designed to in order to move air through it. That can cause the furnace’s efficiency to drop, shortening its life and unnecessarily increasing your heating bill.

A Furnace Check-up Gives You Peace of Mind

The last thing any of us wants is a furnace that breaks down unexpectedly right when we need it most. By having a technician inspect all of the components, replacing any that are worn or on the verge of breaking down, cleaning your unit thoroughly and inspecting equipment like ductwork, humidifiers and air cleaners, your furnace – and your family – will be prepared for the upcoming heating season. It’s a straightforward process, but one that’s essential to ensuring that your home heating system is ready for the coming heating season.
