Why You Need to Schedule Furnace Service Once a Year

Imagine the first cold snap of the year—and your furnace decides to give out. It’s a harsh reality, but one that could be easily avoided if you schedule furnace service regularly. Once a year is optimal to increase furnace efficiency and reduce the chance of an unexpected breakdown.

Not only does annual furnace maintenance limit unplanned heating issues when you least expect them—it helps save you money, too. That’s because our technicians can find smaller furnace problems during inspection and fix them before they need a bigger repair. Also, a more efficient furnace uses less energy, meaning a lower energy bill for you every month. This is even more important during winter when furnaces reach their peak usage. Less stress on your furnace also means a longer system life, helping you get the most out of your unit.

When to Schedule Annual Furnace Service

In general, we recommend the fall months as the perfect time to schedule furnace maintenance. It’s right before winter, which means we’ll identify anything that could need repair before the weather gets cold. Plus, the closer it gets to winter, the busier our schedule gets—so by making your appointment now, you won’t have to wait too long for service.

However, what’s really important is that you schedule service once every 12 months. So if you find that summer or spring works better with your schedule, it’s fine to plan your appointment then, too.
