An annual furnace service is essential to ensure your heating system operates efficiently and reliably throughout the colder months. During a routine furnace service, a professional technician will thoroughly inspect, clean, and tune up your system to optimize its performance and extend its lifespan.

Here’s what’s typically involved in a furnace service:

1. Inspection of the Furnace: The technician will examine the entire system, including the heat exchanger, blower motor, and burners, to identify any signs of wear, leaks, or damage.
2. Cleaning: Dust and debris can accumulate over time, affecting efficiency. The technician will clean important components such as the burners, blower, and filters to ensure proper airflow.
3. Lubrication: Moving parts like the blower motor will be lubricated to prevent wear and reduce noise.
4. Safety Check: The technician will test the furnace’s safety controls, including the pilot light, gas lines, and carbon monoxide detector, to ensure your system is operating safely.
5. System Calibration: The technician will fine-tune your furnace, adjusting the thermostat, airflow, and other settings to ensure maximum efficiency and comfort.

Having your furnace serviced annually not only helps avoid unexpected breakdowns but can also reduce energy bills by keeping the system running at peak efficiency.
