Furnace Maintenance Tips

Change Your Furnace Filter Regularly:

For optimal furnace performance, it’s important to regularly check and change your furnace filter. A clogged filter restricts airflow, making it harder for your system to efficiently heat your home. Standard 1” filters should be replaced every 30 days, while thicker 5” filters can last up to 6 months. If you have pets or a dustier home, consider changing the filter more often.

Schedule Annual Furnace Maintenance:

Annual preventative maintenance by a certified HVAC professional is crucial to keeping your system running smoothly. Regular checkups help prevent emergencies, breakdowns, and ensure optimal performance. Our certified technicians will clean, inspect, and address any potential issues. The best time to schedule furnace maintenance is in the fall, before the heating season begins.

Keep Your Indoor & Outdoor Vents Clean

Keep both your indoor and outdoor vents clean and clear of debris. Dust or vacuum your indoor vents and registers regularly. For the outdoor unit, ensure leaves or snow don’t block the exterior furnace vent, as this can cause the furnace to shut off prematurely.

Change Thermostat Batteries

At the start of each heating season, replace your thermostat batteries to avoid surprises, like waking up to a cold house because the thermostat stopped working. A programmable or smart thermostat can be especially helpful in maintaining consistent comfort.

Prepare Your Furnace for Winter

The above tips should be part of your pre-winter checklist. Additionally, scheduling a duct inspection and cleaning before the heating season starts is a simple yet effective way to help your system run efficiently.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Recently I had to install brand new furnace and AC with the help of Able Air, and they did really good job from the very first stage - from our meeting with Mike where he clearly explained the problem and possible solutions. I might have been a bit annoying with several iterations of my questions, nevertheless Mike elaborated on all the options with clear details which I felt to be truthful and with common sense and I didn’t smell any BS. Provided quotes were reasonable. On the day of installation everything was done quickly and neatly. I liked how Martin and his colleague made all the wiring and silicone work, obviously the scope of work involved a lot more - but these are those little details which are visible on the surface.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.  Had a wonderful experience with Able Air Conditioning and Heating. Fast appointment, great service and extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Had my fireplace, which had been unused for six years, operating in no time. Service Technician Dylan was very friendly and helpful. Offering tips for maintenance and cleaning my fireplace and he was warm and welcoming to my two pups who may have been a little too excited with his arrival. Will definitely use this company again. Thank you!
