Is It Necessary to Have My Furnace Inspected and Maintained Annually
Short answer, yes. Just like a car warranty your heaters manufacturer may require maintenance to have been performed in order to cover the cost of the repair. Annual inspections and maintenance are a good idea to keep your warranty in place.
Just like a dentist recommends annual checkup and cleaning it’s better to be safe than sorry when it comes to your furnace.
What does an HVAC technician do for furnace inspection and maintenance?
- We check the venting system and the temperature rise in the duct work to make sure that there are no leaks or blockages and that the temperature rises, and nothing causes the system to overheat or short cycle, causing the house not to get quite hot enough.
- We check the gas pressure, make sure its set appropriately and a gas analysis making sure everything mixes properly for burning, As well as a once over on the burner flame ignition and flame sensor.
- We address any issues with the fresh air intake, blower wheel, or filters used to keep your air nice, clean, and moving throughout the home.
- We also check the electrical system on the furnace to make sure there are no corrosion or damaged wires inside or around.
Performing maintenance and inspection on furnaces is really something that should be left to the pros unless you’re a homeowner that happens to be an HVAC technician. Contact On the Spot Comfort Solutions, schedule an appointment today!
