Reasons to Schedule Your Annual Check-Up

Your family depends on your heating system to stay warm and comfortable during the winter months. If you want to keep your heating system functioning properly and get the most from your investment, it is important to schedule an annual tune-up. Keeping up with preventative maintenance offers several key benefits for your heating system and home comfort.

Yearly heating maintenance helps to:

  • Reduce the risk of a sudden loss of heat
  • Improve efficiency
  • Lower home heating costs
  • Maximize the life of your system
  • Identify and fix problems

Our technicians will adjust and tune-up your heating system as necessary to help you enjoy optimal performance and energy efficiency. If a larger problem is discovered during our maintenance inspection, we can repair it before the start of the winter season. This can help you avoid a larger repair in the middle of the winter.

How Often Should You Change Your Heater's Filters?

Changing the filters in your home's heating system is a very important, but often neglected, part of your heater's regular maintenance. Air filters should be changed every 90 days. When an air filter is not changed it becomes dirty and clogs up the system.

Dirty filters can lead to poor indoor air quality and an increase in heating bills. The increase in heating bills comes from your heating system needing to work harder to push air through the clogged filter and into your home's ductwork.

Scheduling maintenance is important to keep you warm this winter and help your equipment work at peak performance. We recommend having maintenance performed on your heating system prior to the start of the heating season for optimal system performance and home comfort.

Can I Maintenance My Heater Myself?

While many homeowners have the know-how to fix, maintain and service their own heaters, it is important to note that a professional's day-in-day-out job is to understand heater maintenance, which may make working with a professional the best option for you!

In addition to know-how and daily practice, professionals already have the equipment necessary to maintain your heater, which can save you from needing to purchase your own. Additionally, not all heaters are created equally and may require different expertise based on their age, how they have been maintained over the years, the type of fuel they use, etc.
