Avoid Breakdowns This Winter with Preventative Heating System Repair in Delaware

While the effective operation of your heating system might not be a top priority right now, the last thing you want to deal with is a breakdown in the middle of the winter season. To avoid this fate, you will need to start planning now, and the very first step is handling any preventative heating system repair in Delaware that might be necessary right away. Here are a few of the preventative steps you will want to take to ensure that you are able to get the most out of your heating system this winter:

  • Stay on schedule: Even if your heating system has been effective over the past few winters, sticking with routine preventative maintenance can still be very beneficial. This inspection will ensure that your system is ready for another season and will provide the opportunity to get ahead of any potential issues that could lead to a breakdown further down the line.
  • Air filters: With all of the debris, dirt and dust that your furnace filters collect on a regular basis, you should aim to change them out at least once a month. Not only will this help to keep the air healthy, but filter changes can also play a key role in maintaining your furnace’s efficiency.
  • Keep your vents open: There is a common myth about heating and cooling going around that closing the vents in unused areas will help to lower energy usage. Unfortunately, this is not the case, and doing so could actually do your system more harm than good. When your system was initially selected, it was chosen based on the size of your commercial space, with the expectation of equally delivering heat to each area. Instead of making your heating more efficient by targeting certain rooms, closed vents could hinder your furnace from working to its full capacity, leading to frequent short cycles. Ultimately, this cycle frequency could shorten the lifespan of your system.
  • Don’t forget to check on your thermostat: There are quite a few instances in which what might seem like a major furnace problem boils down to simple thermostat issues. If your thermostat is programmable, make sure to adjust the temperatures and heating schedule for the upcoming winter season, and be sure to change the batteries if necessary.
  • Strange odors: When running your heat for the first time in several months, it is normal to smell the odor of the dust burning off. However, if you smell anything reminiscent of sulfur, smoke or chemicals, there might be larger problems that you will want to have checked out by a technician right away.
