What a Furnace Tune Up Includes
A tune up is a full checkup of the heating system. Each item below protects your comfort and safety.
- Burner and flame sensor cleaning: Dust and carbon on burners and the sensor cause weak flames and shutdowns, and cleaning them is the most common fix before winter.
- Gas pressure and combustion test: We measure gas pressure and exhaust gases with a combustion analyzer to confirm the furnace burns cleanly.
- Heat exchanger look: We inspect the heat exchanger for cracks and corrosion, which can allow carbon monoxide to enter the house.
- Blower, motor and filter: The blower wheel, motor and filter get cleaned or replaced, since airflow decides comfort and equipment life.
- Condensate trap and thermostat: High efficiency units drain water, and a clogged trap shuts them down. We clear it and check the thermostat settings.
- Written report: You receive a plain language list of what we checked, what we found and any recommendations.
Why Early Fall Is the Right Time Here
First cold nights in Havertown usually come in October and November, and that is when furnaces that sat all summer fail. Booking in September or October means you are not waiting in line when the cold arrives.
Older furnaces in basements of twins collect dust from renovation projects, which clogs burners and filters. Manoa, Oakmont and Chatham Park homes with finished basements see this often, and a tune up clears it before it causes a shutdown.
