What is a Furnace Tune-Up?
Regular tune-ups are an important but often overlooked part of home maintenance. An annual furnace tune-up is essential for keeping your furnace working as it should. A skilled HVAC technician will perform a comprehensive inspection of your heating system and test different parts of your furnace. Not only can furnace tune-ups prevent expensive repairs and keep utility bills from increasing, but yearly maintenance can make sure the life of your furnace lasts longer.
Why are Heater Tune-Ups Important?
A furnace tune-up has many benefits to your heating system. Regular heating system tune-ups can keep your energy bills low and your energy efficiency high, all while taking all the necessary steps to avoid a heating emergency. In addition, annual maintenance can prevent costly repairs and major issues like a carbon monoxide leak.
Think of it this way: you wouldn’t drive your car without getting the oil changed regularly, would you? Furnace maintenance is just as important for the life of your heating system. HVAC tune-ups can prevent normal wear and tear from turning into component failure that will inevitably lead to a full heating system replacement.
How To Know When it’s Time for a Heating Tune-Up
You should perform a heating tune-up every year to prevent issues with your furnace. Don’t wait until the cold weather arrives to find out your furnace has an issue!. A furnace tune-up every year can improve your indoor air quality and keep your furnace working at its peak performance.
However, we know how hard it is to stay on top of regular maintenance, especially with everything else going on in your life. Sometimes it’s hard to recall the last time someone came to service your HVAC system, and other times, it simply slips your mind completely! Here are some common issues that can point to needing a furnace tune-up sooner rather than later:
Older Furnace
Furnaces typically have a lifespan of 15-20 years. If you perform regular furnace maintenance, that lifetime can be increased. As your furnace gets older, it will likely need a tune-up more than once a year to keep up with your household’s needs.
Air Flow Issues
If you’re having issues with getting proper airflow, it may be time to schedule an appointment with an HVAC technician to take a look at your furnace. Poor airflow can cause a significant decrease in the energy efficiency of your furnace. Sometimes the solution is as simple as replacing a dirty air filter.
Trouble Staying at Desired Temperature
A dirty air filter can also be a problem with keeping your home at a comfortable temperature. Dirty components in your furnace (like the flame sensor and blower motor) can cause your furnace to repeatedly turn off and on. This can cause high heating bills during the peak of the heating season. Fortunately, our experienced technicians at Lyons Air & Hear can keep your furnace as energy efficient as possible with a quick furnace tune-up, so don’t hesitate to contact us!
Clogged Condensate Line
If you notice a standing puddle of water around your HVAC system, it may be caused by a clog in your condensate drain line. The condensate line drains water out of the heat exchanger and away from the furnace. A clog in the line can cause your HVAC system to work harder to heat your home and cause your energy bills to increase significantly.
Carbon Monoxide Leaks
Carbon monoxide is an invisible gas that has no smell. It is imperative that homes have a carbon monoxide detector, as carbon monoxide poisoning is fatal. A cracked heat exchanger can cause leaks that can be an immediate danger to you and your family. If you believe you may have a carbon monoxide leak, call Lyons as soon as possible for a full inspection. Also, feel free to take a look at our blog to learn more about the warning signs and dangers of carbon monoxide poisoning.
Do I Need a Furnace Tune-Up if my Heating System is New?
‘New’ is a relative term when it comes to a furnace. Furnaces commonly have expected life spans of up to 20 years–but furnace manufacturers list the expected lifespan with yearly tune-ups in mind. If you don’t perform regular furnace maintenance, you’re likely to need a furnace replacement far before the 15-20 year mark. If your furnace was installed within the last year, it’s still recommended to get a furnace tune-up before the cold weather sets in. This will keep your energy costs from rising and keep your system running at peak efficiency.
What is Included in a Furnace Tune-Up?
During an annual furnace tune-up, one of our experienced HVAC technicians at Lyons Air & Heat will:
- Replace air filter
- Check electrical connections and tighten them as necessary
- Clean condensate drain line, fan blades, and coils
- Lubricate moving parts
- Test pilot light, airflow, heat pump, thermostat, and safety controls
- Check for cracks in the heat exchanger
- General cleaning of heating system
A yearly furnace tune-up is necessary to keep your heating system functioning and prevent costly repairs. An annual tune-up can increase the energy efficiency of your heating system, improve indoor air quality, and keep your energy bill from increasing.
