How Can I Keep My Heating System Running Smoothly All Winter Long?
There are a few things you can do to keep your heating system running smoothly all winter long.
Routine Maintenance
Make sure to have your heating system serviced by a qualified technician at least once a year. This will help to identify any potential problems and fix them before they cause a breakdown.
Filter Replacement
Change your furnace filter regularly. A dirty filter can reduce the efficiency of your heating system and make it work harder. This can lead to higher energy bills and even a breakdown.
Safety First
Keep the area around your heating system clean and free of debris. This will help to prevent fires and other accidents.
Also, if you have a gas furnace, make sure to have the pilot light checked regularly. A pilot light that goes out can cause carbon monoxide poisoning.
