Looking for Signs that your Furnace is Ready for the Long Winter Haul.

It is about that time in the Rockies…time to turn on your furnace and make sure that it is ready for the next six months or so. Before winter hits with a vengeance, as we know it can in Colorado Springs, you want to make sure that your home’s furnace is not only running at peak efficiency, but is safe as well.

Here are some steps you can take –

1. Change the filter…it seems obvious, but dirty filters are the bane of your existence.
2. Change the thermostat to heat…you would be surprised how many people forget.
3. Clean the dust off of the burners.
4. Check the boiler and oil it.
5. Test all of the safety monitors.
6. Hire a professional.

Of course, we threw that in because if you want a safe and comfortable winter why wouldn’t you call us at Altitude Heating and Air?
