What a fantastic time of year! There\u2019s such beauty all around, and so many fun gatherings and activities. The air is fresh and crisp, and you know it won\u2019t last long. You\u2019ve got to enjoy autumn while you can. But you also have some important things to do. Furnace maintenance<\/a> needs to be done in the fall, and you don\u2019t want to forget that. Things can go terribly wrong if you don\u2019t take care of your heating system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

Boosting Furnace Efficiency Before Winter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

One consideration when it comes to having your furnace maintained is efficiency. By cleaning, lubricating, realigning, tightening, inspecting, and recalibrating everything, your HVAC technician can keep your furnace\u2019s efficiency as high as it can be despite the aging process. But what if you don\u2019t have maintenance done? The heating system will drop in efficiency by approximately 5% every year. You\u2019ll be paying extra for heat, and nobody needs that. Maintenance also supports better overall indoor air quality performance<\/a> in your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ensure Your Furnace Heats Effectively This Fall<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You really don\u2019t need to pay more while getting less for that money. And that\u2019s what will happen if you skip tune-ups. Heating systems are much less effective when they\u2019re clogged with dust, lacking lubrication, or have various parts out of alignment or in poor condition. Without maintenance, you\u2019re likely to end up with uneven heating, and parts of your home will just never be cozy enough. These issues often go hand-in-hand with poor air circulation through ducts<\/a>, which can further reduce comfort and system effectiveness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Common Fall Furnace Repairs to Schedule Now<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Your furnace will accumulate a lot more wear and tear than it would after maintenance. Without anyone checking on all the components and making minor adjustments, a small problem can quickly worsen and become a significant issue. This means that without maintenance, your furnace is much more likely to require repair. But with maintenance, you\u2019ll cut repair needs by up to 85%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Fall Maintenance Extends Furnace Life<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When manufacturers estimate how long a furnace will last, they are calculating for a furnace that receives maintenance every year. That means if your furnace was expected to last 10-15 years, you\u2019ll only have that amount of service life if you\u2019re diligent about scheduling maintenance. Left to gather dust and wear out, with no professional attention, a furnace is likely to last only half as long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fall Furnace Maintenance Tips for Safe Heating<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Last, but absolutely not least, we come to the question of safety. The hazards that furnaces can pose depend on what energy source they use. While a gas furnace could end up with a gas leak or a carbon monoxide contamination issue, an electric furnace won\u2019t. Either type, however, does use electricity. That means any furnace could develop problems that lead to electric shock or electrical fire. These risks are even more concerning during allergy season, when spring air quality improvements<\/a> can make a big difference for health and comfort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you have your furnace tune up in Janesville, WI<\/a> done by a qualified professional, your safety will be their top concern. You\u2019ll also enjoy all the other benefits\u2014efficient, effective heating without wasted energy, frequent repairs, or a failing heating system. Maintenance can keep you and your family warm and safe when the coming cold weather hits. Don\u2019t delay. Schedule it today!
