Your furnace is a critical part of your home’s operating system and when it goes down, multiple sections of your home can suffer. Lamco Systems understands the importance of keeping your furnace in good working condition to get you through those harsh Massachusetts winters. Check out these signs to see if your furnace is due for a tune-up!
It’s Been Over A Year Since Your Last Tune-Up
Regular furnace tune-ups and inspections can keep your furnace functioning properly for years to come. If you are scratching your head trying to figure out the last time your furnace was serviced, it is time to call in the experts at Lamco Systems for an inspection. Routine furnace maintenance can help you catch any issues before they turn into larger problems, leaving you without heat.
Your Furnace is Old
The average life of a well-maintained furnace is around 20 to 25 years. If your furnace system is on the upper end of that lifespan, it may not be performing at its full potential. Older furnaces often require more routine maintenance and sometimes parts can be hard to find. If you are ready to replace your old furnace, Lamco Systems has some great replacement options available including Mitsubishi and geothermal heating and cooling systems.
Your Energy Bills are High
If your energy bills seem to be higher than normal, it could be an early warning sign that your furnace is not working properly. A professional tune-up is a great opportunity to get your furnace inspected for any abnormalities or issues that can be causing your furnace to work harder than normal.
Changing the Temperature on Your Thermostat Doesn’t Help
If you are constantly changing the temperature of your thermostat to try to reach a comfortable temperature, this could also be a sign something is wrong. Furnaces that are constantly running, or are turning on but immediately shutting off, need urgent repairs.
Lamco Systems is there to help your furnace live up to its true potential. If you notice any of these signs or if you have any other HVAC concerns,call our HVAC specialists today!
