What Are The Benefits Of Furnace Maintenance?
Extended Lifespan
Furnaces tend to last anywhere between 15 and 20 years. And while this seems like a long time, unfortunately, some units begin to start slowing down anywhere around 10 years of age. While this can vary from unit to unit, one consistent thing is that, if you take excellent care of your unit, it is more likely to last significantly longer than if you just ignore it as a whole. Help keep your furnace running better for longer with a regular furnace maintenance program.
Uphold Your Warranty
When you purchase a new furnace—or sometimes when you move into a new house—the unit will come with a warranty. This warranty comes from the manufacturer and guarantees that the manufacturer will cover the cost of any needed repairs or replacements within a certain period. While this is amazing coverage for your unit, some stipulations must be upheld to keep the warranty valid. Most warranties stipulate that there must be regular maintenance done on the unit by an HVAC professional to ensure the damage hasn’t come from user error or negligence. So if you want to make sure your warranty stays intact, set up your maintenance plan today.
Save Money In The Long Run
Perhaps the thought of paying for a yearly or twice-yearly maintenance appointment is deterring you from setting up a maintenance schedule. While we understand the hesitancy, we want you to know something important: regular furnace maintenance appointments will save you money in the long run. Regular maintenance helps to keep your furnace running efficiently, which means that it will be using less energy and costing you less each month than it might otherwise! Also, without maintaining your furnace well, the chance of major repair costs skyrocket. And finally, without regular maintenance, your furnace will likely last a shorter amount of time, meaning you will have to purchase and install a brand-new unit sooner than you need to. Save money by getting your maintenance appointments set up today!
Peace Of Mind
Finally, one of the greatest benefits that comes with having a regularly scheduled maintenance program for your furnace is simply the peace of mind of knowing that nothing is wrong with your unit. It can be hard owning a home and being responsible for so many moving parts.
