After months of sitting unused, your furnace may need some repairs. Before you turn it on for the first time this season, ensure that your furnace isn’t a ticking time bomb.
CHECK FOR CARBON MONOXIDE LEAKS
Detecting potential carbon monoxide hazards early is the best way to protect yourself and your family. Carbon Monoxide is a silent killer, meaning your family won’t notice a deadly leak until it’s too late.
To ensure that your furnace is safe to turn on this year, schedule a seasonal tune-up on your HVAC system. Many furnaces and HVAC systems require regular maintenance to ensure warranty compliance.
During a seasonal tune-up, one of our First Class professional technicians will perform a 21-point inspection on your HVAC system to check for damage or needed repairs. Additionally, they will closely check your furnace for leaks or cracked furnace heat exchangers. These are among the most common causes of carbon monoxide leaks.
INSTALL CARBON MONOXIDE DETECTORS
After your furnace is inspected for damage, ask your First Class technician about installing carbon monoxide detectors in your home. These units can detect a carbon monoxide leak and alert your family to the odorless gas before it’s too late.
Every home should have a carbon monoxide detector on each floor of your home. These detectors should be tested monthly. For more information on carbon monoxide dangers, refer to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
