It’s Almost Time for Heater Maintenance Before Winter Hits

No Comments

It might seem odd to talk about your heater in the summer, but fall is just around the corner and it’s time to schedule your heater maintenance. Service 1st Pros advises that it’s an excellent idea to have your heater serviced once a year in the fall to make sure it will work all winter long without any problems or danger. Let’s talk about our heater maintenance service below and how you will benefit from it.

Ensures the Unit Is Ready for its Winter Job

When we come to your home or business for a heater service, we are there to make sure that your heater is ready for its winter job. We inspect the unit thoroughly to make sure there aren’t any parts that are wearing down that need to be replaced. If there are, we will replace them now rather than allow them to break down in the winter. We also change the filters to make sure that the heater generates fresh air flowing through the vents. As we just said, the point of the fall maintenance visit is to make sure you can rely on your heater to keep you warm all winter long.

Ensures There Isn’t Any Fire Danger

A secondary purpose of fall heater maintenance visits is to make sure that your heater doesn’t pose any fire danger to your home or business. We will make sure that everything electrical about the unit is functioning properly and that you don’t have any worn or frayed wires. If you have a gas unit, we will make sure that the pilot is lit properly and that there isn’t any risk of a fire due to gas leaks in the unit. It’s important to have your heater checked once a year to make sure that it can operate safely without any risk to you or your family or customers.

Ensures There Isn’t Any Carbon Monoxide Danger

Aside from a fire risk, there is also a danger of carbon monoxide poisoning if you have a gas furnace. We will inspect the furnace to make sure that it is vented properly and that the vent is clear of debris. We will also make sure that there aren’t any gas leaks in the furnace that could send carbon monoxide into your home or business. Over 300 people in the United States die of carbon monoxide poisoning each year. Will inspect your unit to make sure you don’t become part of that statistic.
