Maintenance Tips

Keeping your Heating and Cooling systems in good working order
means your utility bills will be lower, your home will be more comfortable,
and you’ll need to call for repairs less often.

Maintenance Scheduling
Schedule a maintenance service call before the heating season starts. If there are any problems with your system, it’s better to find out before it’s freezing outside! Do the same for your cooling system before sweltering season begins.

Filters
Replace your heating and cooling air filters every month that they’re in use. Operating your system with old, dirty filters means energy is wasted and your system may even be damaged.

System Checks
Don’t keep clutter near your furnace. It’s a fire hazard, and may keep your system from operating efficiently. The same is true for the outdoor section of the unit keep all debris and shrubs away from the unit to allow for proper air flow.

To make sure you’re getting the most out of your heating system, keep the heating registers and vents throughout the house free of dust, dirt, and pet hair by vacuuming them at least once a year and don’t place any furniture over the vents this will cause poor air circulation and reduce comfort.

Listen for odd sounds when your heating or cooling system kicks in. If you hear anything unusual, get in touch with your service professional so you can head off problems before they become serious.
In winter months, set your ceiling fan at its slowest speed and reverse it in order to gently push warm air down from the ceiling without generating a breeze. In the summer reverse the mode.
