Why Heating Maintenance is so Important
Most of us make sure that we take our vehicles in regularly to change the oil, check the brake pads, tires, windshield wipers, and top off the fluids. However, too many people fail to perform the same regular maintenance on their home heating systems, leading to them failing to deliver the comfort you desire and breaking down sooner than they otherwise would.
At Performance Based Heating & Air, we believe that seasonal heater maintenance is crucial to keeping your system running efficiently and extending its lifespan as long as possible. Here are a few things to consider.
- Efficiency- Regular furnace maintenance ensures that the system runs efficiently. An efficiently-running furnace uses less energy to heat your home, saving you money on your energy bills.
- Extended Lifespan- Regular seasonal maintenance also helps prolong your furnace’s life by ensuring all the parts are checked, cleaned, and in proper working order. Also, regular maintenance allows you to find minor issues before they blow up into severe and expensive repair problems down the road.
- Better Air Quality- If you think about it, the air coming out of your furnace and into your home is only as clean as the furnace itself; if the furnace is dirty, you get dirty air in the house. Keeping your filters clean or changing is an easy and effective way to ensure that your furnace remains clean and runs efficiently.
- Savings on Repairs- Ignoring minor issues is never a good idea. Most furnace problems don’t go away on their own, and while most start small, they quickly turn into significant issues that are expensive to fix. By fixing minor issues now, you avoid paying for costly repairs later.
- Improved Comfort- With routine maintenance and cleaning, your furnace performs better, which makes your home more comfortable.
If you’ve neglected your furnace, it’s time to call a furnace repair service and ask about getting on a maintenance and tune-up schedule.
Signs You Need Furnace Replacement
When temperatures drop, it’s essential to have a reliable home heater to keep you and your family comfortable. If you’re using the same furnace that came with your house, and you’ve been there for many years, you don’t want to run the risk of a system failure when you need it most. Below are the most common signs to watch for that signal your heater is failing and that you need to call a furnace repair service right away.
- Age – If you’re like most Arnold homeowners, your furnace was probably in place when you purchased your home, which means it could be at the end of its lifespan. The average life of a furnace is 15-20 years. Check the system’s model number on the unit and look up when it was manufactured.
- Rising Heating Bill – If your heating bills are steadily rising and you don’t know why it could be that your furnace is failing.
- Excess of Dirt & Dust – An excess of dust, dirt, dander, or soot in your home indicates that it’s probably time for a heating replacement.
- Humidity Issues – If your home is too dry or too humid, it could be your furnace that’s to blame.
- Uneven Heating – Are you noticing that the rooms in your house are heated unevenly? As your furnace gets older, it can’t push heat as effectively as it once did and requires replacing.
- Strange Noises – When your heater begins making a buzzing, squealing, or grinding sound, it’s time to consider upgrading to a new unit.
- Frequent Repairs – Look back at your past furnace repairs and see if you’re calling for help more frequently; if so, you’re better off-putting the money spent on repairs towards a new system.
If you’re unsure if you need a new furnace or not, call the experts at Performance Based Heating & Air for an inspection.
