Fall is here in Calhoun, Kentucky, and it’s time to get your furnace tuned up. When the nights get chilly, you will want to know that your heater is functioning properly so that you and your family will stay toasty warm. Let’s look at three benefits you will receive with a tuned-up furnace.

Energy bills account for a large portion of your overall utility bills. When the furnace is tuned up, it won’t have to work so hard to deliver warm air into your home. The harder it works, the more energy it uses causing your bill to rise. In addition, you will have fewer repair bills because our technicians can spot issues during routine maintenance and fix them before they become a problem. You can avoid emergency repairs and save money on energy bills with a well-maintained heater.

If your furnace is older or neglected, it could have safety issues. Furnaces that run on natural gas or propane emit carbon monoxide as part of the fuel-burning process. If the heater is not functioning properly, there is a blockage in the flue, or there is a leak somewhere, you run the risk of having dangerous carbon monoxide leaking into your home. We will inspect for any carbon monoxide leaks.

The furnace in your home is a major investment that you want to keep in top condition for its entire life span, which is about 15-20 years on average. Changing the air filters once a month, along with regular preventive maintenance, will give you years of heating comfort. To ensure that your furnace has timely maintenance, sign up for our maintenance agreement. You will have peace of mind that your heater is running at peak efficiency during the winter and that your air conditioner keeps your home nice and cool during the hot summer months.
