Furnace Repair and Maintenance
The furnace in your Atlanta, GA residence is as important as your air conditioner in a climate where the temperatures fall below 50 degrees for a prolonged period. Atlanta often experiences temperatures below freezing, so it is essential to keep a furnace running efficiently as possible in order to maintain a habitable environment for living and to prevent possible damage to water pipes and appliances.
Old Atlanta Furnaces: Replace or Repair
In the purest of economical sense, a homeowner is better off to replace a furnace that is no older than fifteen years. The usual components to replace are the blower motor and the thermocouple. While it may be cheaper in upfront expenses to repair an old furnace, one that is older than fifteen years may cost the homeowner more in the end over purchasing a modern furnace that wastes less energy in the heating process.
Fall Preseason Furnace Check-Up
Once the summer season is ending, it is time to have a professional visit your home and check your Atlanta furnace over thoroughly. Not only will this assure that the furnace is in good repair and running smoothly, the technician can determine if there are any gas or carbon monoxide leaks around your system. The Atlanta furnace technician will also check to see that the thermostat is working.
Schedule Annual Maintenance
Some of the other elements that the Atlanta furnace technician may check include the burners, fan belts, safety devices, combustion chamber, and pilots. Regular maintenance includes cleaning the furnace, cleaning and adjusting the pilot, cleaning the burners, and lubricating the blower motor. These are just some of the inspections and maintenance that the furnace technician performs. There are also important maintenance steps that the homeowner can take.
Change Your Atlanta Furnace’s Filter
Furnace filters are relatively inexpensive to replace so it is a good idea to change them no longer than every two months. If you have household pets or family members with breathing difficulties or allergies, then it may be a good idea to change your furnace filter every month. In addition to changing the furnace filters in your Atlanta residential or commercial structure, one needs to clean the heat ducts and cold air returns before the heating season and then every two months during the late fall, winter, and early spring months. Again, cleaning the heat ducts and cold air return vents more often if necessary for healthier living.
