When to Schedule Professional Heating Maintenance
If you have not had your heating system professionally maintained in the past year, now is the time. Don’t wait for a problem to manifest before having your heating system serviced. Each year, before winter comes and demand on the system is high, have a professional come and assess the condition of your heating system. That way, if there is an issue, your heating service will not be interrupted during the time when you need it most.
Regular maintenance annually (or biannually, if you have a year-round heat pump system) will help keep your system operating as it should. It helps the heater perform more efficiently, subsequently saving you money, and it helps prevent small repair needs from becoming bigger emergencies later on. That doesn’t mean you’ll never have to call for a heater repair, but maintenance can prevent about 85% of those repair needs!
