Experts recommend scheduling heating maintenance in Elk Grove, CA at least once a year, as an unserviced system will drop in as efficiency by as much as 5% a year. It may also have poor performance, be less responsive and also be much louder than normal. A quick tune-up will restore the system back to its original condition or as close as possible. It’ll also last longer without needing repairs or getting replaced.

Most people leave the furnace maintenance until early winter. While you can schedule a service at any time, it’s best to do so before the cold weather approaches. You don’t want to turn on the furnace before it has been serviced. On the other hand, servicing it too soon can also be problematic, as there will be plenty of time for dirt, dust and pollen to settle into the nooks and crannies.
