Every year in Mid-Michigan, and starting about October 1st, Michiganders start seeing ads on TV, Radio, and on the Web telling them they need to schedule a furnace tune-up.
But what many Mid-Michigan furnace repair companies fail to tell you is exactly why annual furnace maintenance is essential.
At Holland Heating & Cooling in Davison, Michigan, we won’t sell you something you don’t need. Here is a short list of the reasons an annual furnace tune-up is so important to the efficiency of your furnace and the safety of your home.
A furnace tune-up:
- Maintains proper airflow
Poor airflow puts unnecessary strain on your furnace that can lead to increased repairs and a shortened lifespan. - Keeps you and your family safe
Small furnace problems can lead to gas leaking into your home, or carbon monoxide levels to rise. - Reduces the likelihood of major furnace repairs
Every winter, we receive calls from Mid-Michigan residents and businesses with furnace/heating problems that could have been easily prevented with regular furnace maintenance. A furnace tune-up not only includes a cleaning that keeps your furnace running efficiently, but it also catches small problems before they turn into major repairs. - Offers You Convenience
Having a furnace tune-up in September or October, before the weather gets cold, is more convenient than waiting for a furnace repair service to come out during the winter in a cold home without heat. It is also much less expensive. - Improves the furnace’s energy efficiency
A furnace tune-up should include the cleaning and inspection of the furnace burner and heat exchanger. In addition to ensuring its safe operation, this will keep your furnace running efficiently all winter long. - Maintains manufacturer’s warranty
If your heater is under a manufacturer’s warranty, it is especially important for you to get an annual furnace tune-up. Many manufacturers specify that their furnace warranty becomes void if the furnace is not regularly maintained. A furnace tune-up can satisfy that requirement, and it can maintain your warranty.
