Football season has kicked off and the fall season is well underway. As the temperatures slowly drop and we head into the brisk fall months, checking your heating equipment might be the last thing on your mind. If you haven’t already turned off your air conditioner, you will be soon and it’s extremely important to get your home or business ready for heating season. Here are a few tips to help you prepare your HVAC systems for the cooler temperatures and to keep your family safe and comfortable:
Heating Tip #1: Maintain Your Furnace
Having your furnace maintained on an annual basis is vital for ensuring that your furnace runs efficiently. The experts at Anchor Heating & Air Conditioning will professionally inspect your furnace and recommend any updates or repairs to help your system continue to last during heating season and future seasons.
Heating Tip #2: Replace Furnace Filters Monthly
This is a very important tip to help keep your furnace running properly during the fall and winter seasons. Speak with an Anchor Comfort Specialist at Anchor Heating & Air Conditioning to help you choose the correct size for your furnace filter and how to replace it.
Heating Tip #3: Do Not Block the Vents
Make sure rugs, furniture or your child’s box of Legos aren’t covering the air vents. This is a very common cause of improper heating and can be easily remedied to let warm air in to heat your home properly. This also eliminates any fire hazards.
Heating Tip #4: Get a Humidifier
A humidifier can make your home feel a few degrees warmer. Save some money on your next utility bill by turning your furnace down while your humidifier is on!
