If you want to stay cozy during the Georgetown winter, your furnace will requite some maintenance to make sure it’s operating at its best.

Between professional tune-ups, there are quite a few things you can do to ensure your furnace running at its peak performance. Try these maintenance tips to keep your furnace healthy:

  • To make sure your system is operating correctly, test your thermostat regularly. Turn it on and bit by bit increase the temperature setting until you hear your furnace kick on. If you don’t hear anything, check out our blog post on furnace repair for thermostat troubleshooting or contact us directly.
  • Check your filters regularly and clean or change them when recommended. We can’t emphasize this enough. It’s a an efficient way to boost the airflow through your furnace and maintain peak efficiency.
  • Keep all your vents and cool air returns clear of blockage. This includes keeping all ventilation outside of your home clear.
  • Think about having your air ducts professionally cleaned if you observe dust building up around your cool air returns or noticeable debris in your ducts. To learn more about duct cleaning and the indications it’s time to hire someone, refer to our blog on duct cleaning.
