3 Ways to Make Sure Your Furnace is Ready for Fall

October 17, 2016

There are undoubtedly some things you do to get yourself prepped for fall in New Castle, like swap out your closet and think through your Instagram-worthy pumpkin carving. There are a couple things you may forget about while getting ready for fall – like your furnace. We’re about to say see you later to air conditioner weather and we’re leaping into furnace season. Along with your regular furnace service from Central Heating & Plumbing, we have a few tips that may help keep you comfy and get your furnace prepared for its busy season.

  1. Check and Swap Out Your Air Filter
    This is easy advice for every season in New Castle. Before you make that switch from “cool” to “heat,” go swap out your filter from filthy to clean. A dirty filter means your furnace has to work harder to keep you warm which can negatively influence your comfort and lead to higher bills.
  2. Unblock Heating Vents and Registers
    As you’ve moved furniture or brought more into the house, make sure you haven’t blocked any of your heating vents. A blocked vent could raise your utility expenses.
  3. Schedule Annual Furnace Service
    Fall is the perfect time in New Castle to get your furnace looked at by one of our highly-trained technicians. We will do a thorough inspection of your unit and make sure it will be in good working order for the approaching winter months in New Castle. Regular furnace service can help you get the most out of your furnace’s performance, and could also impact the life of your system. Not to mention that a large percentage of the emergency calls in the winter are a result of a lack of maintenance.

We want you to enjoy every aspect of the season in comfort. If you have any questions for us about getting your home ready for fall or need to arrange your routine furnace service give the professionals at Central Heating & Plumbing a call at 724-401-1843.
