In most cases, it’s never too late to get heating maintenance in Glen Mills, PA. We want to make it especially clear to those with a brand-new system that they need to have regular maintenance. Experts, and homeowners themselves, can attest over and over to the benefits of a heating tune-up. These benefits include fewer heating emergencies, reasonably low utility bills, and a longer-lasting system overall. When the system is under warranty, it’s even better because most manufacturers will only cover repairs when there’s proof of an annual tune-up taking place.
"I have had this company for service for the past few years and they have always shown up promptly, provided amazing service and has very pleasant and professional technicians."
The rationale behind maintenance is, of course, to spend a little money now to avoid spending a lot in the future. You can do your part by replacing the filter every three months and by maybe cleaning the evaporator coil of your furnace. To really protect your investment, however, you need a professional to come over for regular maintenance.
A tune-up can consists of several tasks, such as:
Heat exchanger cleaning
Leak detection
Airflow testing
Burner inspection and cleaning
Gas furnaces can leak gas, and electrical units can have wiring issues. Both types of systems could leak out air through the vents, too, but again, a tune-up could catch all of these issues before they impact your health or your finances. Technicians have a strong focus on airflow because if it’s not smooth, it will put pressure on the system, adding wear and tear and diminishing the quality of the heating.
Thermostat calibration is also to be expected in any tune-up. The purpose is to ensure that the thermostat reads the temperature inside correctly before shutting your system on or off. Other small maintenance tasks include the checking and tightening of electrical wiring, the lubrication of motor bearings, and the replacing of bad fan blades.
