Investing in routine maintenance for your heating system is something that many homeowners know they should do, but the truth is very few of them actually act on that knowledge.

On a more obvious note, periodic maintenance will help your system last longer and catch minor issues before they become major ones, preventing catastrophic failure. However, in this post, we’re going to be discussing some lesser-known benefits that you’re missing out on if you neglect heating tune ups.

We trust these will only add fuel to the fire of motivation and get you moving to call your local HVAC contractor to schedule your appointment. So without further ado, here they are...

Heating Tune Ups Help Keep Your Warranty Valid

Many high-quality in-home heating systems come with a 10-year warranty. These companies are proud to stand behind their products and warranties go a long way in protecting consumers in case the unit is in some way defected.

However, warranties aren’t without their caveats — you have to take good care of the system. If there’s ever an issue with your furnace, chances are the manufacturer is going to ask for proof you’ve kept up with routine maintenance. If you haven’t, you’re going to have a hard time getting them to honor your warranty.

Heating Maintenance Can Provide 20% Or More Energy Savings

Heating accounts for 30 to 50% of the energy costs of most households. By investing in regular furnace maintenance, you could be increasing your system’s energy efficiency by 20 or more percent.

While annual tune ups are a major part of the process, you can also do things yourself to ensure your system is running at peak efficiency. Change your filter once every three months or so to reduce the amount of strain on your HVAC system.

Routine Heating Maintenance Can Help Detect Gas Leaks

Most furnaces use gas combustion to heat the air that goes through your vents. If there are problems with your system, it’s possible that gas leaks could occur — and with that the risk of raised carbon monoxide levels in your home.

Carbon monoxide is dangerous and difficult to detect. By having annual heating tune ups, you’ll be able to catch any of these issues, as well as other system inefficiencies. Heating maintenance is an investment in you and your family’s safety.
