Don’t Fall Back on Your Maintenance With everything going on, it might seem that a furnace tune-up is the last thing you need to worry about. But ignoring the important task of maintaining your heating equipment will cause more headaches (not to mention money) in the long run as well as the short term. Here are seven reasons to keep your tune-up date for your furnace.
1. Energy Efficiency A poorly tuned furnace will cost you more in energy consumption as its efficiency falls. You might think you’re saving money by postponing this year’s maintenance but it’ll only cost you in utility bills.
Maintain Your HVAC System During Every Season
2. Furnaces Fail Under Pressure At some point, the temperature will drop - drastically. If your furnace is ill-equipped to handle the drop in temperature, it will fail when you need it the most. Don’t let this nightmare happen to you and your family. Stay warm all winter long, not just on the mild days.
3. Risk of Carbon Monoxide Poisoning If your furnace doesn’t burn gas properly, you run the risk of carbon monoxide being produced. This puts you and your family at risk for carbon monoxide poisoning. This risk is definitely not worth the money you save from skipping your fall tune-up.
4. Breathe Easy A clean fan and filter will ensure that the air you breathe is free from dust and other allergens. This is critical for the cold days ahead when you’ll be spending more time indoors.
5. Quiet Run Fully licensed and insured to provide dependable and quality services that our customers have come to expect and count on.

A finely tuned furnace, like a finely tuned car, will run rather than rattle. Keep the noise level at a minimum with a clean, balanced fan.
6. Avoid a Major Repair Regular furnace maintenance takes care of any small issues that come up so they don’t develop into major problems. You’ll also get a handle of your heater’s operation so you can plan for any anticipated replacements in advance.
7. Prolong Your Equipment’s Life Tune-ups don’t just postpone expensive issues with your furnace; they also buy you some time before the inevitable replacement. Keep your heating equipment running at peak efficiency and with minimal issues to ensure that you get the most out of it in the short term and for years to come. It’s time to book your furnace fall maintenance. Don’t fall back. Call a professional today so they can help you stay warm and safe this coming winter. NS
