Benefits of Furnace Checkups

The temperature is dropping and it’s that time of year again where we all want a comfy home that keeps us and our loved ones warm. Nearly all furnace and air conditioner manufacturers require that their systems be cleaned yearly in order to maintain warranty coverage regardless of make and model. In order to increase longevity of your furnace and heater, annual maintenance is vital to achieving maximum effectiveness. A dirty or faulty furnace also has to work harder and will cost more to operate, increasing your utility bills and wear and tear on your heater.

These are the top reasons why you should have your furnace/heater checked out:

  • Save Money and Energy: A clean heating system operates efficiently and uses far less energy than one that has not been properly maintained.
  • Increase Comfort: Dirt buildup within the furnace can obstruct the flames increasing the time it takes to reach the desired temperature.
  • Prevent Breakdowns: 90% of furnace breakdowns can be traced back to a lack of regular maintenance. Avoid the inconvenience and cost of frequent breakdowns by having your furnace maintained yearly.
  • Increase Lifespan: The better you care for your furnace, the longer it will last!

Heat Pump Vs Air Conditioning

What’s the difference between a heat pump system and an air conditioning system and which one is right for you? Both of these HVAC systems have similarities and vast differences. For starters both systems use compressed refrigerant to gather heat from inside your home as air passes over the coil in the air handler and transfers it out side. Heat pumps and air conditioners essentially move heat from inside your home to an outdoor location, cooling the inside. From a cooling perspective heat pumps and air conditioners are essentially the same when operating in cooling mode, with no significant difference in operation, efficiency, or energy costs.
