With
the colder weather here and holiday celebrations like Thanksgiving right around
the corner, you probably want to have your home cozy for all your friends and
family who come over. Here are six heating maintenance tips to ensure that your
home's heating system is performing well:
1.
Heating Tune-Up — Fall is a great time to
schedule a heating tune-up, even more so if you're having
friends and family visit your home for the holidays.
When you schedule a heating tune-up with Estes Services, one
of our expert technicians will ensure that your heating system is working
properly, efficiently, and safely by performing various preventative
maintenance activities, including:
i.
Inspecting the heating system.
ii.
Cleaning the heating system.
iii.
Testing and measuring the system.
If you haven't scheduled your tune-up yet, now is the time,
as you don't want to wait until your unit underperforms or stops working
altogether. Schedule service today.
2.
Change ceiling fan direction
— If
you use your ceiling fan in the winter when your heat is on, you will want to
ensure that the ceiling fan direction is clockwise (if your fan has a reverse switch). This
enables your fan to create an updraft which forces hot air to rise to your
ceiling and throughout the rest of your room.
3.
Change Filters — You will want to make sure
that you change your filters on a regular basis. This is an excellent way to
improve your indoor air quality and keep your unit
functioning well during the winter months. How often you should change your
filters depends on several factors, including the type of filter and level of
usage.
If you think you need air filter replacement, you can schedule a service with us today. Or, you can
also enroll in one of our HVAC Maintenance Membership Plans, which start at just $14.95
a month and include filter changeout so that you can help eliminate your
worries about changing your filters.
4.
Move items away from vents — Ensure that none of your
vents are blocked by furniture or other obstructions, especially in the winter.
This can help each room reach its full warming potential.
5.
Install a smart thermostat — There are a couple of ways to
make your home's heating system smart. The first way is to have a licensed
electrician install a smart thermostat in your home, giving you more control over your home's heating system. There are many different
types of smart thermostats to choose from, and an Estes Services HVAC
technician can help you select the best one for your home.
6.
Upgrade to a smart heating
system — In
addition to installing a smart thermostat, the other way to make your home's
heating system smart is by upgrading to a new system.
Replacing an outdated system can bring you many benefits, including increased comfort, lower energy costs, improved air quality, reduced
repairs, reliability, and more.
We have several heating replacement options, including heat
pumps, ductless mini-splits, and furnaces. Plus, now through November 19, 2022,
we are offering up to $2,350 in rebates or 0% financing on fully qualifying
