Maintaining Your High-Efficiency Heating System
Maintaining your high efficiency heating system is important to prevent future problems and unwanted costs. Here are some helpful hints on how you can keep your equipment in optimal condition.
- Change your filters. This should be done at least twice a year on your heating system. Dirty filters aren’t good for the system or for your home’s air.
- Schedule an annual tune-up. A tune-up keeps your heating system running efficiently, prevents expensive and inconvenience breakdowns, and prolongs the life of your equipment.
- Set your programmable thermostat. Reduce temperatures when you are not home and when you are sleeping. Setting your system to your schedule will save you money and reduce the wear and tear that drastic temperature changes can have on your system.
- Keep it clean. If your unit is inside, keep it clear or heavy lint, dust and dirt. If your unit is outside, keep it clean of leaves, branches and other debris.
- Inspect your outside vents. Ensure that they aren’t blocked. Partially blocked vents can be bad for the equipment and totally blocked vents can be dangerous.
