ASKING THE RIGHT QUESTIONS CAN HELP PREVENT FUTURE FURNACE REPAIRS

Your furnace is an imperative part of your home. During the colder months, you want to be sure your unit is working efficiently to provide the comfort you and your family need. When contacting a furnace repair technician to visit your home, take advantage of the opportunity to learn and ask some essential furnace repair questions that will ensure that your unit will be running at optimal performance.

Is your home adequately insulated?

Usually a heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) technician can do a quick check in your attic to tell you if your home is insulated properly. This will save you on energy costs and increase the effectiveness of your furnace. Having your HVAC technician do a quick assessment of your home's insulation will also pinpoint potential problems in terms of lowering your heating bill.

When will it be necessary to replace the furnace?

Most furnaces have a long lifespan -- approximately 15 years -- provided they are inspected and maintained regularly. However, it is always good to know when issues might come up. Your HVAC technician can tell you approximately how long your furnace will continue to operate effectively to help you prepare for future replacement costs, and help you avoid a breakdown in the winter when you need it most.

Given that your furnace requires regular maintenance, ask the technician if they provide service contracts annually. Preventative maintenance is the key to spotting potential problems before they happen.

Prevent a malfunction by changing your furnace filter regularly

Installing a proper furnace filter is imperative to protecting your HVAC system and ensuring your furnace is operating as it should. But be advised: not all furnace filters are the same. Be sure to ask your technician what type of filter your furnace needs. At the same time, be sure to find out how often the filter should be replaced.

When asking these furnace repair questions, you also want to know the exact cause of your furnace repair needs. Your HVAC technician will know what caused any problems that have occurred, how to prevent them from happening again, and other things you can do to help prevent future problems with your furnace.

Ensure you and your family are comfortable during the cold months and prevent potentially expensive furnace repair issues from arising unexpectedly. When getting your unit serviced, be sure to ask these essential furnace repair questions to help you extend the life of your furnace, and prepare you for future maintenance issues.
