Schedule an Annual Tune-Up for Your Furnace or Boiler
Scheduling annual tune-ups is essential for maintaining a healthy system. All you need to do is call our office, and our fully licensed technicians will handle the rest. This will prolong the life of your system, ensure that it is clean, and save you money by identifying repairs before they cause problems.
Remove All Window Units During Cold Temperatures
Keeping window AC units in year-round can cause unwanted frigid air to enter your home. To guarantee warmth, be sure to remove all summer appliances in the winter and store them for future use. Remember to lock your windows after removing them, as this can also bring in cold air.
Check All Doors and Windows for Drafts
Experiencing unusually cold or warm temperatures even when your thermostat is adjusted correctly? The culprit could be in your windows and doors. Be sure to check all edges to determine if they are letting in drafts. Use door snakes or weatherstripping to patch up the leaks.
Consider Upgrading Your Thermostat
Many thermostats require manual adjusting to control the temperature. Some come with a scheduling feature, allowing you to program temperatures for certain times of the day. Switching to these thermostats could reduce your energy bills.
Make Sure Your Vents Are Clear
It is important to keep all air vents free of blockage and dust. Check to see if any pieces of furniture are covering them and relocate them if necessary. A blocked air vent could prevent circulation throughout your system. Clear vents will bring warm temperatures.
