EXPERT FURNACE MAINTENANCE

FOR IMPROVED HEATING EFFICIENCY

Do you want to make your heating system work better and last longer? Regular maintenance for your furnace is the best way to get the most value out of it. We offer complete heating system tune-ups and maintenance in Waco and the surrounding areas. We'll make sure all the components and elements of your furnace are working properly so you can enjoy reliable heat and stay comfortable through winter in central Texas.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD YOU SCHEDULE MAINTENANCE?

It's a good idea to have your heating system checked once a year. Regular maintenance can help make sure it works well and lasts longer, which means fewer repairs. It's best to schedule the check-up before you need to use it so it's ready when you do.

Get a heating system tune-up in the Fall before temperatures drop, and tune-up your AC in the spring before it gets hot. Taking care of your heating system with proactive maintenance will save you money and time in the long run.

Some advantages of scheduling an annual Waco heating system tune-up service include:

  • Increased system lifespan (often as much as 3-5 years)
  • Lowered risk of breakdowns/problems
  • Decreased energy bills
  • Improved energy efficiency
  • Reduced risk of emergencies
  • Keep your warranty in good standing

What'S INCLUDED WITH HEATING SYSTEM Service?

We perform a comprehensive inspection and tune-up of your furnace or heat pump to ensure that every part is working properly. Our maintenance service is fairly priced and well worth the investment - typically adding 3-5 years to the life of your system.

HEAT PUMP MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST

  • Check for correct amount of refrigerant
  • Test for refrigerant leaks, if necessary, using an electronic leak detector
  • Inspect electrical terminals, clean and tighten connection
  • Clean coils as needed to increase efficiency of system operation. The heat pump coils and fins require regular maintenance for the unit to function effectively and efficiently throughout its years of service. Neglecting necessary maintenance increases energy consumption and lowers your unit's efficiency and performance.
  • Check blower wheels and motors for restricted airflow and proper amperage
  • Test the crankcase heater to ensure it’s working
  • Check the accuracy and operation of the thermostat
  • Verify correct sequence of operation
  • Inspect evaporator and condenser coils for dirt and debris.
  • Replace dirty air filters with clean filters
  • Enrolling in a preventative maintenance plan for your heat pump can result in significant savings on your heating costs, reduce the need for repairs and improve your indoor air quality
  • Check the refrigeration metering device to ensure it’s working
  • Check the defrost control to verify it is working properly
  • Monitor coil temperatures

GAS FURNACE MAINTENANCE CHECKLIST

  • Inspect the vent system and air intake grilles, remove any blockages
  • Check the heat exchanger for signs of damage or corrosion
  • Examine and clean the blower, remove any debris
  • Check the blower motor and test its amp draw
  • Check and test the system’s safety controls and startup cycle
  • Check gas pressure, and adjust as needed
  • Verify correct sequence of operation and supply air temperature
  • Inspect the electrical connections, tighten them and/or replace damaged wiring as needed
  • Check the burner and flame sensor
  • Inspect the thermostat and calibrate it as needed
  • Lubricate all moving parts in the heating system as needed
  • Check the air filter, clean it, and replace it as needed
  • Clean standing pilot, and thermocouple

Home WARRANTIES REQUIRE MAINTENANCE

If your heating system needs repairs, one affordable option is to file a claim with your home warranty provider. However, it's important to take care of your heating system so that it qualifies for coverage.

If a service contractor finds that the furnace broke down because you didn't take proper care of it, it might not be covered by your home warranty. A home warranty can save you money by providing cost-effective repair solutions. Some warranties even offer guarantees or rebates on certain services. To stay eligible for warranty coverage, make sure to regularly maintain your heating system. Neglecting maintenance could lead to problems and expensive issues. By being proactive in taking care of your furnace, you can ensure it runs smoothly and have peace of mind knowing that any breakdowns will be covered by your home warranty provider.
