How Can I Make My Furnace Last Longer? Bartlett Heating and Air Has Some Tips

Are you worried about whether your furnace will last through the winter? There are things you can do to make sure you have the best chance of making that furnace last as long as you take care of it. Sometimes we forget to add furnace maintenance to our long list of fall maintenance we should do. Even if you forget in the fall you can still have your furnace cleaned and checked. Having it cleaned an checked will help your furnace to run more efficiently which will lower your energy bills. Bartlett Heating and Air does a 28 point inspection when we come out to clean and check your furnace to make sure everything is working the way it should. The next thing you can do is to not turn the heater up as high as possible. That does not heat your home any faster, it just puts more strain on the furnace which can cause it to break faster. While you are waiting for the home to heat up, throw some sweaters on and give it some time. This will save you headaches in the future due to untimely breakdowns. One last thing you can do is watch out for anything abnormal. If the furnace is making any kind of noise or not running the way it normally does then you should have a technician called sooner than later. When we catch the issue early on we can fix it before larger problems occur. Your furnace running non stop or always shutting off shortly after it starts is a waste of energy and needs to be serviced. These are some things that will help your furnace run longer with less breakdowns. Just pay close attention to your furnace and call Bartlett Heating and Air if you have any issues.
