Heater Maintenance Tips

According to a recent news report in Arkansas, homeowners will want to schedule heater maintenance for their space heaters and furnaces before they actually turn them on. The fall season is a beautiful time of the year, but it’s also a great time to prepare yourself and your home for the upcoming winter season. Northern's One Hour Heating & Air Conditioning® is here to help you get your HVAC system ready for the cold winter season by providing the Minneapolis area with experienced HVAC technicians and HVAC services.

Keep Your Home Safe

The heating system in your home is the second leading cause of home fires in the winter as well as the fall, which is why proper heater maintenance is essential. By checking them before you have to turn them on, you’ll be able to tell whether or not they’re in good working order and if any repairs need to be done. A Minneapolis HVAC technician should regularly check all gas applications in your home to see if they need to be vacuumed or cleaned.

Keep Your Family Safe

If you ever have a crack in your furnace, there’s a chance that a lethal amount of carbon monoxide could leak out into your home. Homeowners should also change out the air filters in their homes every three months to make sure they remain clean and in good working order. Dirty air filters can also become homes for mice, snakes and even cats.
