Our Comprehensive Furnace Maintenance Checklist

A professional furnace tune-up is much more than a quick filter change. It is a detailed inspection and cleaning process designed to enhance safety, improve efficiency, and ensure reliability. A certified technician will systematically check all critical components of your system to confirm they are in optimal working order.

• Safety Control Inspection: The technician will test all safety controls, such as the high-limit switch, to ensure they function correctly and will shut the system down in an unsafe condition. For gas furnaces, this includes a thorough check for any gas leaks.
• Burner and Heat Exchanger Cleaning: Soot and debris can build up on the burners over time, leading to inefficient combustion. The technician will clean the burners and inspect the heat exchanger for cracks, which could lead to carbon monoxide leaks.
• Electrical Component Check: All electrical connections will be tightened and inspected for wear or damage. The technician will also check the amperage draw of the blower motor to ensure it is operating within the manufacturer's specifications.
• Blower and Filter Maintenance: The blower components will be cleaned of dust and debris to ensure proper airflow, which is critical for both efficiency and comfort. The technician will also inspect and replace the air filter as needed.
• Thermostat Calibration: The thermostat will be checked and calibrated to ensure it is accurately reading the room temperature and signaling the furnace correctly, preventing unnecessary cycling and energy waste.

This meticulous process addresses all aspects of your furnace's performance and safety. An annual tune-up following this checklist is the best way to prepare your heating system for the winter ahead.
