Just like regular maintenance on your car keeps it up and running for many years without unexpected surprises, maintenance on your heating and/or cooling systems is just as important. Preventive maintenance checks this time of year keep your heating system running all winter reducing surprise breakdowns while ensuring it operates at maximum efficiency. Plan to schedule your heating system check in the fall each year (central air conditioning checks should be scheduled in the spring).
In addition to eliminating worry, there are three big reasons why you should schedule preventive maintenance checks:
- Fewer Repairs: Preventative maintenance helps reduce the likelihood of a surprise breakdown or expensive repair because any issue will be caught before it can do real damage.
- Longer Equipment Life: For furnaces/boilers to function properly, they need to be serviced and cleaned regularly. It only takes one malfunctioning part to cause a domino effect resulting in the entire system breaking down. A regular maintenance program prevents this from happening and prolongs the equipment’s life.
- Lower Energy Bills: The fact that your heating system appears to be working without any apparent problem does not mean everything is fine. Neglected systems slowly lose their ability to keep your home comfortable at the same level of efficiency as they once did. Having your system professionally maintained will reduce its energy consumption.
