Now Is the Time to Schedule Your Furnace Tune-Up

As winter approaches in Colorado, families are gearing up to face the season’s harsh cold and difficult conditions. There’s no better time to schedule a furnace tune-up in Littleton than while autumn is still with us.

Even if you have no reason to believe your furnace may need maintenance, giving it a tune-up can prevent serious problems when the weather gets colder. Here are a few benefits of getting a furnace tune-up in Littleton before winter arrives.

Better Energy Efficiency

A well-kept furnace uses less energy to heat your home. In a professional tune-up, technicians clean and remove the dust and debris that collect in your furnace and can clog air filters, restricting its airflow. 

They may also adjust the burner and uncover any connection issues that are making the furnace work harder. Taking care of these problems can leave you with lower energy bills.

Longer Lifespan

Gas furnaces are built to last for 15 to 20 years. Electric furnaces can last a little longer. Whatever kind of furnace you have, regular tune-ups help extend its expected lifespan and limit its decline from normal wear and tear.

Better Performance

A tune-up can make your furnace function more effectively. A technician cleans up the blowers, burners, and heat exchangers for better heating ability. They may also replace the air filter so warm air is better distributed throughout the rooms of your home.

Warranty Compliance

Many furnace manufacturers offer warranties on their products under the condition that they are serviced on an annual basis. That alone is one reason to schedule a tune-up now. The technician can provide hard-copy proof that you’re fulfilling the terms of the warranty by getting a check-up.

Prevention in Advance

When a furnace stops working in a Colorado winter, the effects are felt immediately. A tune-up can prevent breakdowns and malfunctions in the furnace system that make your family uncomfortable.
