Verifying your heating system is in top-notch operating condition before winter hits is always a good idea. It is always a good idea to have a yearly servicing of your heating system done to ensure your family’s safety. A unit that is not operating correctly, can be risky, particularly if it operates on fuels like propane, oil, or natural gas. It only takes a tiny crack in the joint or line to permit dangerous gasses to leak throughout the home. Air Novations LLC does heating and AC repair in Fairfax, VA homeowners trust.
Why is it Imperative to Maintain Your Heating System?
Keeping your heating system maintained and operating correctly is not only safer, it is energy efficient. The reason is that when all the mechanical parts are lubricated, they operate effectively, without requiring extra energy to run.
When Should I Have My HVAC System Inspected?
It is recommended that an HVAC system be inspected at least once annually. It does not matter what type of equipment you have. A good rule of thumb is to have the heating system inspected in the fall and the air inspected during spring.
What Type of Maintenance Does a Furnace Require?
The HVAC professional will want to inspect the unit’s thermostat and calibrate it as required. In addition to ensuring all the movable parts of the system are lubricated. Also, the technician will check, clean, and replace the air filter of your furnace or heating system if needed. Also, during routine maintenance the startup and safety controls will be checked and tested for efficiency.
At What Temperature Should Your Home Be Before Turning on the Heating System?
To be more energy efficient, wait until your indoor temperature is at 68 degrees Fahrenheit before turning the heat on. However, for households with children, sickly, or elderly members you can consider a little higher temperature. Always pre-set the heating unit’s thermostat before retiring for the evening.
