Heating Repair – Avoid Costs w/ These Tips

|

A heating repair plan is crucial to maintaining a warm and cozy home throughout the winter months, as well as cool and calm all through the summer. The extreme variations of temperatures during these two seasons can cause your heating and cooling equipment to function improperly. However, a professional heating maintenance plan will save you money. Repairs and replacements can be costly. Maintaining your unit will help prevent these added costs from occurring.

A pre-winter maintenance performed by an expert HVAC technician will ensure that your heating unit is prepared for the upcoming season and safe for your family to use.

The HVAC technician will perform the following checks on your system:

  • Exterior Furnace Repair and Cleaning

    Dirt and debris accumulation is typical on and around your outside unit. Dust and insects, as well as all other debris will be removed by the technician.
  • Leakage Inspection

    The technician will verify that there are no gas leaks and may suggest that you purchase a co2 detector to alert you of any possible leakages.
  • Install New Air Filters

    New air filters will ensure that the heating system is working efficiently. A new filter should be replaced every three months and a professional will install a quality air filter for you before the winter.
  • Clean the Burners

    Gas furnace burners that are coated with dust, soot and debris will reduce the effectiveness of the unit, and will shorten the life of the system. A technician will remove all burners and inspect and clean them for you.
  • Verify Clear Vent Lines

Carbon monoxide poisoning is life threatening when your heating system / gas furnace vent lines are clogged. The technician will inspect all lines and eliminate any blockages. They will have the proper equipment to safely remove and obstructions.
  • Tighten & Secure all Electrical Components
