By simply scheduling service once a year, you ensure that your furnace is using energy efficiently, all working parts are cleaned and tuned, and that you’ll stay comfortable all season—no matter how cold it gets. It also helps prevent the need for bigger repairs, as our team will catch and fix minor problems before they can worsen. Maintenance protects your comfort and your budget.

Annual service ensures a thorough clean and tune of your heating system. That includes your:

FAQs
As we mentioned, furnace maintenance is one of the best and most effortless ways for you to keep your energy costs low. You can also try switching your ceiling fan blade to rotate clockwise (it will move warm air around the room and down to you), lower the temperature when you go to sleep, and sealing any gaps in your windows and doors.
The answer depends on how often it’s used and how well you take care of it. But on average, the answer is about 15 to 20 years. To reach the higher end of that range, be sure to schedule routine maintenance once a year. It’ll keep all working parts in good order, improve the furnace’s efficiency, and more.
For optimal airflow and indoor air quality, we recommend switching out filters once every one to three months. However, you may need to change it more often if you have pets, someone in the house smokes, or if a family member has problems with allergies.
Our service consists of a multi-point inspection of key components inside your system. We clean the blower assembly, clean and lubricate working parts, and test your thermostat’s calibration. We’ll also check your heat exchanger, burners, and electrical components for cracks and damage, fixing smaller issues before they get worse.
Generally, you should schedule maintenance once a year. It will keep all the furnace’s working parts clean and tuned and your system running smoothly.
A few simple steps you can take include replacing your air filters every one to three months, keeping your vents and registers clear of obstructions, and removing any dust or debris from around the furnace.
