Readying Your Furnace for Winter


As the air outside cools down, so will your home. It’s time to power down the air conditioner and turn on the heat. Winter will be here before you know it.

Before it gets too cold out, you’ll want to take the time to prepare your heating and cooling system for the cold months. You don’t want to find yourself in a situation where your furnace has stopped working because of a preventable issue as it will cost you more than just a repair bill; you’ll find delayed comfort from the cold.
  • Take the time to have a professional perform a furnace inspection and be sure to:
  • Have a professional HVAC company inspect the system and clean out the ducts
  • Remove all flammable materials and objects from the furnace area
  • Consider having a programmable thermostat installed
  • Stock up on furnace filters and change them every month
  • Have your hot-water radiator (if you have one) valves bled

Doing these simple tasks will save you money. But, if you need a Minnetonka heating and cooling company, then get in touch with Abel Onsite by visiting www.AbelOnsite.com

  1. A plugged filter restricts air flow. This blocks the heat from being distributed to your house. Besides wasting energy it can dramatically shorten the life of your furnace. A tip from furnace repair Greenwood Indiana.
