As the air whispers the arrival of winter, it’s not just your wardrobe that needs a seasonal transition. Your heating system, the unsung hero of your home’s comfort, beckons for a winter-ready tune-up. We’ve put together an easy-to-follow, four-step guide to keep your home warm all season long.
Step 1 – Embark on the Great Filter Quest: Your system’s filter is like the goalkeeper of your heating system – crucial for defense. A clogged filter is like a goalie napping on the field. Replacing or cleaning your filters is a simple task that ensures efficiency and indoor air quality. Contact your neighborhood experts if you have questions about the best filter for your system.
Step 2 – Ductwork, The Hidden Highway of Warmth: Inspecting your ductwork can be like exploring hidden passages, except these passages carry precious warm air. Leaky or poorly insulated ducts are notorious for letting heat escape, like leaving your windows open all winter. Still trying to figure out what to look for? Our team of local experts can inspect, repair, and insulate your ducts, ensuring every bit of warmth stays right where you need it.
Step 3- Safety First with Carbon Monoxide Detectors: In pursuing warmth, let’s not forget safety. Your carbon monoxide detectors are silent sentinels, guarding against unseen dangers. Test them and change the batteries regularly.
Step 4 – The Professional Touch – Your Heater’s Spa Day: There’s no substitute for a professional inspection and maintenance service.
