Ready, Set, Check! Well, here we are; the days are shorter and colder. So as you begin to pull out your winter gear, homeowners will also want to pull out their furnace checklist. Our experts at Loveland Heating & Air suggest keeping a list handy to help you get through the cold days to prevent any issues with your home heating system throughout the winter season. Below is a pre-winter furnace checklist provided by our excellent technicians.
- Check Your Air Filter- This is one of the essential furnace maintenance steps to have an efficient and working heating system.
- Inspect Vents- This is a typical area where a fire could start, and homeowners tend to overlook it. Inspecting your vent will help keep your family safe from unwanted disasters.
- Check Your Thermostat- If your thermostat isn’t working properly, this can cause many issues. To avoid any extra costs, ensure that your thermostat and your residential furnace are working together to provide your home with optimal comfort this winter season.
- Clean Your Furnace- Keeping your furnace clear of any obstructions and as clean as you can get it will help give you peace of mind.
- Get an HVAC Tune-Up & Inspection- It is easy to forget about a tune-up since the entire system hides behind ceilings and underneath floors. However, if you don’t keep up on tune-ups, it can cause malfunctions and other damages to your system.
- Check Your Gas Lines for Leaks- The last thing any homeowner needs is a leak from a gas line. So check this out frequently to protect you, your family, and your home.
- Annually Clean & Inspect Your Air Ducts-Cleaning your air ducts and inspecting them will allow your system to run with higher efficiency while keeping your home warm and cozy all winter.
Now that you have your winter belongings and equipment pulled out and ready to go for another winter, you can begin to check off every item on our pre-winter furnace checklist and keep your furnace prepared for the winter season.
