There are plenty of easy things you can do in between pro servicing to advance the efficiency of your furnace and keep it operating in the best shape. Try these furnace maintenance tips:
- Yes, we’ve said it before, but we can’t highlight this enough: check your filters regularly and clean or change them when suggested. This is such a easy way to improve the airflow through your furnace and preserve top efficiency.
- Keep all your vents and cool air returns clear of barriers. This means keeping any ventilation out of your home clear.
- Test your thermostat regularly to guarantee it’s functioning appropriately. Simply turn it on and gently increase the temperature setting until you hear your furnace turn on. If it doesn’t turn on, refer to our blog post on furnace repair for more thermostat tips, or give us a call.
- If you observe dust accumulating around your cool air returns or masses of debris within your ducts, contemplate having your ducts expertly cleaned. To learn more about duct cleaning and how to tell if it’s time to hire someone, go to our blog on duct cleaning.
