Communicating with your Furnace.

That may sound weird, but your furnace will not tell you when it is about to break down.  Now that we are headed into the dead of winter it would be nice to know what it is “thinking”.  Most furnace problems that occur in your home are preventable and here are a couple of tips to follow to keep that reliable appliance from breaking down at the worst time.

Suffocation.  Just like humans, furnaces can literally suffocate from restricted air flow.  If you do not close air vents and change your filter regularly it can put a strangle-hold on your furnace.  There is also the possibility of simple neglect.  If you run the unit without a filter and do not have it checked periodically you could be asking for trouble.

The thought of a failing furnace in sub-freezing temperatures around Colorado Springs is frightening!  We at Altitude Heating and Air are here to help.  If your furnace breaks down this winter, we will come to your home as quickly as possible to get it back up and running.  Please give us a call anytime at (719) 209-4955.
