The Essential Maintenance Your Furnace Needs
If your Marion, NC, relies on a furnace for its heat, you should know how vital it is to keep it in good working order. Regular maintenance is the best way to do that. Here are the key maintenance items included in our maintenance service that your furnace needs to keep running well.
Regular Air Filter Changes
To keep the air in your home clean and healthy, it’s important to change the air filter in your furnace regularly. In most cases, your furnace will need a new air filter once every three months. If you have pets in your home or anyone with allergies or respiratory issues, you may need to change your filter more often than that.
Burner Cleaning
If you have a natural gas-powered furnace, it will need its burners cleaned from time to time to support efficient combustion. During a maintenance visit, our technician will turn off the gas supply to your furnace so they can remove its burners for cleaning. While they’re at it, they will also clean your furnace’s flame sensor so it can continue operating reliably.
Thorough Lubrication
It is necessary to clean and lubricate your furnace’s moving parts to prevent any unnecessary wear and tear. This will also help to keep your furnace running as efficiently as possible. It will also allow our technician a chance to inspect your furnace’s inner workings to see if any parts are nearing the end of their useful life.
Blower Inspection and Cleaning
Your furnace needs its blower kept in optimal condition to effectively heat your home. During a maintenance visit, our technician will clean your blower and inspect its motor to make sure it works as it should. They’ll also check its electrical connections to make sure they’re secure.
Operational Checks
Operational checks are a necessary part of any furnace maintenance visit. That’s why our technician will always turn your furnace on to check that it runs smoothly and that your thermostat functions correctly. If they notice anything amiss, they’ll make any necessary adjustments to correct the problem.
