Furnace Maintenance
Efficient operation is a function of good, regular maintenance. No matter what type of furnace you have, there are several things that must not be overlooked. Our technicians are trained to properly clean, lubricate, and replace essential furnace parts.
Cleaning
Dirt is the biggest enemy of your furnace. Don't let it win! It can waste fuel and drastically lower efficiency. Dirt affects all three basic components of your furnace, so cleaning is the most important part of regular maintenance.
Lubrication
To keep the motor running cool, make sure it's clean! Most motors are permanently lubricated and sealed by the manufacturer; however, some motors have covered oil ports above the bearings near the motor shaft. If the motor has oil ports, it should be lubricated annually.
Part Replacement
Some furnaces have belts on the blower and motor. If the belts are worn or frayed, they will need to be replaced with the same type and size.
