We know what you’re thinking…heater maintenance during the summer? The idea may sound crazy, but staying on top of your heating system during the summer months is the perfect time to do it. Inspecting your heater while the air conditioner is cranked up to the max is the most appropriate time to do it since heat is not needed. This will ensure that your heater is ready to provide you and your home with the warmest heat during the cold, winter months. Nothing is worse than being stuck with no heat during the dead of winter. Let’s take a closer look at some tips on how to conduct proper heater maintenance during the summer.
Heating Repair Service
Our number one tip for summer maintenance is to get any necessary heating repair services completed before temperatures start to drop. Any issues with heaters may slip your mind once the weather starts to get warmer, so it is important to fix any broken or faulty parts of the heating system. Sometimes it is hard to tell if your heater needs any repairs. It may bring up some memories of being wrapped up in blankets, but thinking back to the winter months is a good place to start. If your heater wasn’t running as efficiently as it used to or some unusual sounds were coming from it, it may be time to do some repairs.
DIY Routine Maintenance
Although in a previous blog we advised to never perform DIY HVAC repairs, some DIY routine maintenance for your heating system is encouraged. This includes checking if your air filters are clean, cleaning the perimeter of your heating system to prevent build-up, and looking for clogs or leaks in your ductwork. These preventative measures can help you catch any issues with your heating system before they turn into a much larger problem.
Professional Heater Maintenance
Along with your routine maintenance, you should hire a professional to perform an annual heater check-up. An HVAC technician will have the expertise and experience to suggest any repairs that you may need for your heating system. With the proper maintenance, you will be set up to have the warmest heating around for the winter months. It is important to choose technicians who can perform quality heater maintenance.
