There is no end in sight to this cold weather so far and we will give you some more tips on how to stay warm when it is so cold out.
As the temperature drops and winter approaches, it’s important to make sure your system is running at its best.
A tune-up can help ensure that your system is operating efficiently and safely. Here are a few key tasks to include in your heating tune-up. Cleaning the furnace: A build-up of dust and debris can impede the proper functioning of your furnace. During a heating tune-up, a technician will clean the interior of the furnace, including the burners, heat exchanger, and blower assembly. This will help ensure that your furnace is running at peak efficiency and can help prolong the life of the unit. Checking the filters: Dirty or clogged filters can reduce the efficiency of your furnace and even cause it to shut down. During a heating tune-up, a technician will check your filters and replace them if necessary. It’s also a good idea to change your filters every month during the heating season to keep your system running smoothly. Inspecting the ductwork: Leaks in your ductwork can result in wasted energy and higher heating bills. A heating tune-up will include an inspection of your ductwork to identify any leaks or areas in need of repair. Testing the thermostat: Your thermostat plays a crucial role in regulating the temperature in your home. During a heating tune-up, a technician will check your thermostat to ensure it is working correctly and make any necessary adjustments. We hope this helps you a bit!
