While you’re decking the halls, your furnace is working overtime. Is it time for a furnace tune-up?
Let’s explore what happens during a professional furnace tune-up – because a warm home is essential for making those precious winter memories.
Why schedule a tune-up?
Just as we prepare our homes for the holiday season, your furnace needs proper preparation for the demanding winter months ahead. Professional maintenance isn’t just about preventing problems; it’s about ensuring your family’s comfort and safety during the coldest time of the year. A proper tune-up helps prevent unexpected breakdowns and keeps your heating system running efficiently when you need it most.
The professional approach
Our certified heating technicians follow a comprehensive maintenance protocol that covers every crucial aspect of your furnace’s operation. The process begins with a thorough safety inspection, where technicians examine all controls and carefully inspect the heat exchanger. They test ventilation systems to ensure proper operation and check for any potential safety concerns that could affect your family’s well-being.
The cleaning process
A clean furnace is an efficient furnace. During the tune-up, our technicians thoroughly clean the essential components of your heating system. They ensure the burners are operating correctly with a proper blue flame, indicating complete fuel combustion. The blower assembly receives detailed attention, as this component is crucial for distributing warm air throughout your home. Our technicians clean accumulated dust and debris from these vital parts, which helps maintain optimal performance throughout the winter season.
Testing and precision adjustments
Professional furnace maintenance goes far beyond basic cleaning. Our technicians perform precise measurements and adjustments to ensure your system operates at peak efficiency. This includes checking gas pressure and temperature rise, verifying thermostat accuracy, and ensuring proper airflow throughout your home. These technical adjustments help maintain consistent heating and can lead to noticeable savings on your energy bills.
Simple homeowner care
While professional maintenance is essential, there are a few simple tasks homeowners can safely perform. Regularly changing your furnace filter every one to three months helps maintain proper airflow and indoor air quality. Keeping your vents and returns clear of decorations and furniture allows for proper air circulation. A quick vacuum of your vent covers during regular cleaning can also help maintain good airflow.
