3 Reasons to Schedule Your Seasonal Furnace Tune-up

edit

Colder weather is right around the corner, and before you know it, you’ll be preparing for all the holiday fun to come. The fall and winter seasons are typically packed with family get-togethers, holiday festivities, and preparing your home for future guests. One of the most crucial maintenance steps you should take before the heating season arrives is scheduling your annual furnace tune-up.

You may assume that if your HVAC system isn’t out of order, it can operate on its own without annual maintenance. You’d be wrong! If you want to start the furnace with complete peace of mind regarding its operation and efficiency, you need to schedule a furnace tune-up. Keep reading to learn more about the importance of tune-ups!

Improved System Energy Efficiency

Your heating and cooling system is an investment designed to help keep your home comfortable for years to come. However, without proper maintenance, its performance may be less than satisfactory. An inefficient furnace will utilize excessive amounts of energy to continue meeting your heating needs. Plus, the more efficient your system is, the more affordable your heating bills will be.

An annual tune-up in the fall will prep your system for the heating season with a full inspection and cleaning. Our technicians can also recommend and make any necessary repairs. Services that a Robinson HVAC professional will perform during a furnace maintenance visit include:

  • Lubricating motor bearings and other moving parts
  • Tightening all electrical connections
  • Inspecting the heat exchanger 
  • Testing the exhaust system
  • Inspecting and cleaning the burner 
  • Verifying and adjusting gas pressure
  • Testing the ignition system
  • Inspecting the condensate drain and clearing it, if needed 
  • Testing carbon monoxide levels and checking for carbon monoxide leaks
  • Calibrating the thermostat

To keep your system running like clockwork, and prevent costly emergency repairs, don’t forget to schedule your fall furnace tune-up with Robinson Heating & Air Conditioning.

Extended Lifespan

We love our furnaces and want to make sure they last as long as possible! The average lifespan of a furnace is 15-20 years. Don’t let a furnace retire early due to a lack of maintenance and skipped annual tune-ups. Your heating system will keep your home comfortable for years if you follow proper furnace maintenance guidelines and get annual tune-ups.

Lowered Utility Bills

What homeowner doesn’t like to save on monthly utility bills? Setting your furnace up for success this season can result in more benefits than one. If you have an efficient furnace, less energy will need to be consumed to keep your home cozy. Scheduling a tune-up will also allow our professional HVAC technicians to inspect for any potential problems or areas of concern.
