Start-Of-Season Heating System Maintenance
You’re not alone if you’ve needed to turn up the thermostat these past few days. The colder months are coming, and many want to stay warm at home. But if your heater looks awfully dusty and out of shape, you may need start-of-season heating system maintenance. Before HVAC companies like Santa Fe Express Plumbing & Drain get busy during the winter, we recommend scheduling a pre-season tune-up for your heater. And the best time to do that would be during fall before the cooling season.
Why Schedule A Seasonal Start-Up Service?
Regular heater maintenance ensures your system runs well when needed. A technician can detect early problems with your heater and schedule accordingly for repairs or replacements. With a professional tune-up before the start of winter, you can reduce the chances of a breakdown and enjoy long-lasting heating from your appliance. And since effective maintenance brings your heater up to its optimal efficiency rating, it can lower operational costs and heating bills. So schedule a seasonal start-up service today for prolonged longevity, reduced costs, and reliable heating.
A Professional Heater Maintenance Check-Up
During a maintenance call, a heating technician can tune up your system in the following ways:
- Examine system controls
- Locate leaks and cracks
- Clean and test blower fans
- Inspect gas connections
- Clean or replace air filters
- Calibrate the thermostat
- Tighten electrical connections
- Replace worn-down components
- And more
You can inspect and clean the air filter yourself if you’d like. It’s simple to do, and one of our contractors can show you how. And, of course, you’re free to adjust the thermostat to your liking, but our team can test its settings to ensure it’s working. But the rest of our maintenance checklist requires the proper equipment and expertise to conduct. So if you’re due for an annual pre-season check-up, contact a professional heating company soon.
Does My Heater Need Repairs?
You may be wondering whether your heater needs repair or maintenance. Unfortunately, not all HVAC malfunctions are easy to detect, so we understand if you’re trying to decide between a routine tune-up or a significant repair job. But if you schedule seasonal check-ups with our team, we’ll help inspect your system and determine the best course of action. Sometimes, standard maintenance is all you need to bring your heater back to shape. But signs you may need repairs include:
- Loud and unusual noises coming from the unitv
- A lack of airflow
- Burning smells coming out of the vents
- Poor air quality despite changing the filter
- An unexpected spike in utility bills
Santa Fe Express Plumbing & Drain will be there for you whether your heating system needs repair or maintenance. So if you suspect issues or are due for a check-up, call us soon to restore your heater’s performance.
