Start With DIY HVAC Maintenance
Start with these checks before turning your heating system on for the first time of the season.
- Replace or clean your air filter.
A clogged air filter will overwork your system, increasing your energy bills and leading to uneven temperatures throughout your home.
- Clear the vents.
Move any obstructions away from vents, radiators, and returns to ensure proper airflow and safety.
- Test your thermostat.
Turn on your heating system early to make sure everything works correctly. If you have a smart thermostat, update your heating schedule when the weather turns.
- Note anything abnormal.
Strange sounds, turning on and off, or cold rooms are all a reason to call for service for your heating system.
- Check outdoor equipment.
Remove foliage and other debris from around any outdoor components to your heating equipment.
