3 Ways to Make Sure Your Furnace is Ready for Fall

October 17, 2016

There are likely some things you do to get yourself prepared for fall in Troy, like swap out your closet and plot your Instagram-worthy pumpkin carving. There are a couple things you could possibly forget about while preparing for fall – like your furnace. We’re about to say goodbye to air conditioner weather and we’re headed into furnace season. Along with your annual furnace service from Edington Heating & Cooling Inc, we have a couple tips that can help keep you comfy and get your furnace prepared for its busy season.

  1. Check and Swap Out Your Air Filter
    This is basic advice for every season in Troy. Before you make that switch from “cool” to “heat,” go change out your filter from dusty to clean. A filthy filter means your furnace has to work harder to keep you warm which can negatively influence your comfort and lead to higher bills.
  2. Unblock Heating Vents and Registers
    As you’ve moved furniture or brought more into the house, ensure you haven’t blocked any of your heating vents. A blocked vent has the chance to raise your utility expenses.
  3. Schedule Annual Furnace Service
    Fall is the best time in Troy to get your furnace looked at by one of our expert technicians. We will do a comprehensive inspection of your unit and ensure it will be in good working order for the coming winter months in Troy. Routine furnace service can help you get the most out of your furnace’s performance, and can also impact the life of your system. Not to mention that a pretty high percentage of the emergency calls in the winter are due to lack of maintenance.

We want you to enjoy every portion of the season in comfort. If you have any questions for us about getting your home ready for fall or need to schedule your routine furnace service give the experts at Edington Heating & Cooling Inc a call at 937-558-9478.
