When Does Your Furnace Need Service?

Now that we are getting into the middle of winter, it is important to know when your home’s furnace is performing well and when it might need some help getting serviced by professionals. Although a furnace does a great job of keeping us warm through the winter, it, like all other appliances, needs to be serviced from time to time to ensure it is not only operating efficiently, but also operating safely for the home.

JP Heating & Air Conditioning’s technicians have decades of experience working with home heating systems, so we know what to look for to ensure yours is working as intended. Whenever problems arise with your home heating, we can assess the situation and find where the problem lies.

Too much dust

Dust is one easy way to tell that furnace needs to be cleaned or maintenance. Everything that is small enough to get trapped on a furnace filter, such as hair, dust, and more will, over time, block it, meaning the same particles then make it into the air of your home at a much greater rate. This can cause allergens to be a problem for those living within the home, which, for some, may even lead to health issues.

JP Heating & Air Conditioning’s technicians, when brought into your home, assess the hardware to ensure everything is clear of debris and particles so your air is clean and uninhibited.

High-than-normal energy bills

When the costs of your heating is raised higher than normal, it may be a sign that your furnace is in need of a maintenance check to ensure nothing is wrong. It’s especially important when you notice your bill rising when you haven’t made any changes to your heating schedule and temperatures. Dirt buildup leads furnaces to work harder than they normally do, leading to overworking of the system.
