Do A Furnace Tune Up Now
Never got around to servicing your furnace this year? There’s still plenty of winter left here in Westchester. It’s better to get a furnace tune up now instead of putting it off until next year.
Here’s why it’s better for your system, your wallet, and your peace of mind, plus a tip for getting the best price for heating maintenance.
5 reasons to get a furnace tune up in late winter
1. Avoid risks to your family’s safety
Even if your furnace seems to be working fine, you might have undetected problems (like cracks in the combustion chamber or exhaust pipes) that can cause carbon monoxide to build up in your home.
As you may know, carbon monoxide is colorless and odorless, so you won’t know it’s there until a tragedy happens. Don’t take the chance. Getting a furnace tune up is relatively inexpensive and brings you peace of mind knowing your family is safe.
2. Prevent system damage
When you get a furnace tune up, your technician will not only clean and inspect the system components, but also change furnace air filters. The air filter keeps dust, grime and contaminants from getting into the equipment.
With a clean filter, your system is getting proper air flow which helps it work efficiently and effectively. When the filter is clogged, poor air flow can cause damage to the components and lead to expensive repair issues or even a shorter life span for your system. That’s why it’s very important to change the filter regularly. Think of it like an oil change for your furnace. If it hasn’t been done this season, get a furnace tune up now.
3. Reduce repair expenses
When a technician services your furnace, they inspect the condition of all the parts and test how they function. When they find a small issue, such as a worn wire, they can replace that one part proactively before it leads to a bigger problem.
That minor fix prevents you from facing a larger repair expense later on. You also avoid the hassle of a breakdown and having to get emergency service at an inconvenient time.
4. Drive down energy costs
When your furnace hasn’t been serviced in a while, neglected equipment components begin to work less efficiently. Your furnace runs more often and for longer periods as it struggles to maintain the set temperature.
What happens when it runs more? It uses more fuel and electricity. That drives up your utility bills. Get it taken care of now to avoid paying more and wasting energy.
5. Ensure you have heat when you need it
It’s only February. Late winter storms and cold snaps are pretty common, well into March and even sometimes in April.
Get your furnace inspected and tuned up now to avoid a breakdown when you and your family need it the most.
