Replacing your furnace is no small task. There is a lot of labor involved, but there is especially a lot of money involved. It can cost north of $10,000 to have a new furnace installed in your home. It’s no wonder there are homeowners that are trying to do everything they can to keep their current furnaces running. Absolute P&M Services is here to talk about ways that you can extend the life of your furnace.

Tips to Help Extend the Life of Your Furnace

There are several things that a homeowner can do to extend the life of the furnace in their home. Here are some of our best tips to keep your furnace up and running.
– Seasonal Maintenance: The best way to extend the life of your furnace is to ensure that seasonal maintenance is done on the unit. This is always best done by professionals that know what they should be looking for as they work to keep your furnace as efficient as possible. Your furnace will be deep cleaned during maintenance as well to help ensure it can run properly. This will help your furnace work with ease and extend its life.
– Check Your Registers: You need to check the registers in your home before turning on the heat this winter. Make sure there is nothing that is blocking the airflow and that the vents are all opened so that it can properly heat your home.
– Air Flow: Check your furnace and move any objects that are too close to it and could restrict airflow. Airflow is key in keeping your furnace efficient and running properly. Your furnace has to work much harder if it isn’t getting proper airflow. Along those same lines, make sure you’re replacing the filter in your unit on a regular basis so that it isn’t struggling with airflow problems.
– Repair Right Away: If your furnace is struggling to work for any reason, make sure you get it fixed as soon as possible. This will not only help you avoid a more costly repair down the road, but it can help to extend the life of your furnace as well. It will help you avoid putting stress on other portions of your furnace when you replace parts that are broken.
– Winterize Your Home: To help your furnace keep your home warm without overworking, make sure you’re taking steps to winterize your home. Replace weather stripping, caulk around windows, and make sure your attic is properly insulated.
