Why is Regular Furnace Maintenance So Important?

Your home's heating system is essential during the cold season, providing much-needed warmth and comfort. To ensure your furnace is ready to perform when you need it most, it's crucial to schedule regular maintenance. Consider these key points about furnace maintenance.

1. How Often Does Your Furnace Need Maintenance?

A general guideline is to schedule a furnace maintenance check at least once a year. Think about our seasons here in Minnesota, our furnace is running almost year round here. Annual check and cleaning will help ensure that your heating system is in good working order when the cold weather arrives.

Tip: Many homeowners wait until the last minute to turn on their furnaces, only to discover issues. This leads to a rush for repair services. Avoid the hassle by turning on your heating system now & schedule a tune-up soon, especially before the polar vortex season begins.

2. What Does Furnace Maintenance Include?

During annual maintenance, your furnace undergoes a thorough inspection. Technicians check for signs of wear and tear, clean the system, and address any potential issues. This proactive approach prevents unexpected breakdowns and improves energy efficiency.

Here are some things you can do before you call a professional to handle the more technical components:

  • Replace air filters
  • Replace humidifier pad
  • Change the batteries in your thermostat
  • Dust off your returns and registers
  • Call Standard Heating and schedule a furnace tune-up
