Winter is approaching and it’s time to ensure your furnace is in top gear so your family keeps warm and cozy throughout.
Your heating system has probably been off for a while now, but before the cold weather kicks in, it’s essential to go through mandatory furnace maintenance activities like:
- Cleaning your ducts and vents to ensure proper airflow
- Sealing off all drafty areas, including fixing broken doors and windows
- Cleaning the heat exchanger so to enable it to generate heat efficiently in your home
- Cleaning and lubricating the blower motor
- Set your thermostat right. If your thermostat isn’t functioning, call in a pro for a quick check-up, the issue may be with the other parts of the heating system.
- Making the necessary furnace repairs
- And most importantly, hire heating services for a furnace inspection.
Every HVAC system needs an annual inspection.
The inspection is meant to ensure your system serves you well in the cold season. It also enables you to address any minor issues before they become a significant concern.
So, to avoid frustrating breakdowns in the middle of the cold season, have a pre-inspection done.
On another important note, if your furnace looks like it could fit in an antique roadshow, it may be time to consider replacing your furnace.
An older furnace can cost you expensive repairs, so it wouldn’t hurt much to consider replacing it.
What you stand to gain from regular furnace maintenance
Cleaning your blower, vents, and ducts and testing your thermostat before winter may seem like a bare minimum.
However, it prevents the furnace from running into unexpected problems that may hurt your bank balance, plus it helps keep your home safe. So don’t skip on maintenance.
