Don't ever doubt that you need a fall furnace tune-up performed each year, because you do need one, and we’re here to tell you about the benefits you may have been missing out on.
Fall furnace tune-ups are vital to having a durable furnace. Having pre-season preventive maintenance done also helps you throughout the winter; promising uninterrupted heating and avoiding system breakdown just when they need their heat the most.
No matter what winter brings to our area this year, you’ll know that your furnace will perform time and again and without fail if you have had a fall furnace tune-up.
Why the timing of your tune-up is important
The timing of a tune-up matters for a variety of reasons:
Air conditioning and heating contractors are often at their busiest once winter arrives and homeowners run their furnaces around the clock. At this time, people who forgot to make an appointment will rush to schedule preventive maintenance. Other homeowners’ furnaces will break down, and they’ll call their contractors to schedule repairs. For all of these reasons, if you call for maintenance once winter is in full swing, you may have to wait for an appointment.
During the fall season, however, HVAC contractors are squarely focused on making room for tune-ups, which is generally the most common type of appointment. As a result, scheduling a tune-up now will ensure that your furnace receives attention, and that it is in good working condition -- before you have to fire it up.
