Benefits Of Annual Furnace Cleaning & Maintenance

The purpose of preventative maintenance is to keep your heating system up and running all season long with no surprise breakdowns while operating at top efficiency. You rarely see your heating system face to face, so it’s easy to forget about it and neglect it. Imagine doing the same with your car. If you never have the oil changed or refuse to take your car in for any kind of tune-up until the check-engine light comes on, you can’t expect it to last more than a couple of years.

What can you expect from your newly tuned-up heating system? Is the cost of maintenance really worth it? You should consider that some benefits of regular maintenance are immediate while others prevent future problems from developing. Some of the most prominent benefits include:

• Lower energy bills: you might assume that since the equipment is heating or cooling your home without any apparent problem that everything is fine. However, have you taken a look at your energy bills lately? A neglected system slowly loses its ability to keep your home comfortable at the same level of efficiency it once did. Just as a car tune-up delivers better gas mileage, your heating system consumes less fuel after receiving professional maintenance.
• Fewer repairs: do you hear a strange sound or notice an odd odor coming from your furnace? Calling for a tune-up right away could help catch problems before they become disastrous. For example, a fraying belt could result in strange operating noises. If a technician replaces it in time, you can avoid the expensive repair that results from a snapped belt whipping around inside. By preventing future repairs, annual maintenance pays for itself
• Longer equipment life: furnaces and other heating equipment function best when they’re regularly serviced and cleaned. One malfunctioning part can cause a domino effect that causes the entire system to break down. Regular maintenance prevents this from happening and adds years to your equipment’s lifespan.
• Safer equipment operation: a failing heating system does more than cost a lot of money to repair; it also can endanger your family. For instance, if the furnace develops a crack in the heat exchanger, carbon monoxide gas can escape and poison the air you breathe. Also, electric heating systems can develop a short circuit, which is a serious fire hazard if ignored. Clearly, your family’s safety is yet another reason to schedule annual heating system maintenance.

Boilers can be a fantastic way to heat your home or commercial building. If you’re experiencing trouble with your boiler it’s imperative you talk with a company who is experienced and knowledgeable with this type of heating system as most HVAC companies have little to no boiler experience.

In the Dekalb/Kane County area, we are a leading boiler repair, maintenance and installation company with 3 generations of local boiler service.

Heat Pump Installation

Making the decision to install a heat pump is a wise investment as a homeowner. Not only will you decrease your utility bills and reduce your carbon footprint, but your system will also run more efficiently and require little to no maintenance over time. There are many advantages to installing a heat pump in your home including longer equipment lifespan and better safety ratings over traditional systems. It doesn’t matter if you have a smaller or a larger home, installing a heat pump brings you savings regardless.

It’s important to acknowledge the fact that installing a heat pump is considerably more difficult than other HVAC systems. Service Now Home Services has experts with the technical skills and tools required to install them properly. Do NOT hire an amateur for this job! If you have questions or concerns about heat pump installation, please don’t hesitate to ask us! We are happy to answer any questions you may have and explain why a heat pump install is different and requires a professional with the experience to back it up.
