Do I Really Needed To Have a Furnace Tune-Up?

Your furnace works hard every cold season to keep you and your home warm and comfortable. Naturally, that puts a certain normal amount of wear and tear on the equipment. In order to guarantee that it works appropriately each season, it requires a furnace tune-up before the season starts. All manufacturer’s strongly recommend this annual furnace maintenance and it is especially essential if you have an older furnace.

Preventative Furnace Maintenance

Similar to your annual check to guarantee you’re healthy, a certified technician will make sure that the inner operations of your furnace are all operating correctly.

You will want to perform preventative maintenance. This is because, while your furnace might run with a small problem in the fall, once the harsh cold of winter sets in, the stress will be too much. You might end up with your furnace broken and totally not working in the dead of winter season. Having a furnace tune-up in the fall and dealing with any issues before winter starts is the only way to prevent this kind of breakdown from happening.

Safety

Anytime heat is produced, fuel is burned. This suggests there is a chance of danger. Having an annual furnace tune-up ensures that your system is all running safely and securely.

Air Quality

Throughout your furnace tune-up, the furnace is cleaned of debris and dust which will definitely improve your air quality. Sometimes you may even have your ducts cleaned and this is an amazing improvement to air quality.

Energy Efficiency

A furnace tune-up will help its energy efficiency, which will in turn keep you warmer this winter season while also reducing your energy expenses. A big part of this is done by ensuring proper airflow.

What Exactly Is a Furnace Tune-Up?

Now that you understand the importance of a furnace tune-up, you may wonder what exactly goes on during this annual maintenance. When you set up an annual furnace tune-up, a licensed service technician will examine and clean your heating system, seeing to it to make required repairs as needed.

They will clean the blower compartment and blower wheel. They search for loose wires and tighten up or replace them. The tech will clean the furnace’s burners and adjust them so that you get the highest level of performance. They will also make sure that the heat exchanger, gas pressure and flame operation are all working properly.

Your HVAC service technician will change your air filter, check the pilot light or ignitor, air ducts and air flow. They will perform any other safety and efficiency checks that are required and wrap up by providing you advice on how to keep your system in tip top shape.

Does a New Furnace Needed To Have a Tune Up?

Even if your furnace or heating unit is fairly new, it still needs to have yearly maintenance. This is to make certain that it keeps running properly. Today a new furnace really should last as long as twenty years, but only if it has the routine maintenance that it needs.

Do Heat Pumps Need Tune Ups?

Heat Pumps do need tune-ups because they are what regulate the heat in your house. They require the exact same seasonal inspection and tune-up before winter hits that any other heating equipment needs.
