4 Signs That Your Furnace Needs Serviced
THWART FURNACE BREAKDOWNS FROM HAPPENING
Having to deal with a furnace breakdown during the colder months of winter is a major inconvenience. Ohio winters are brutal and other HVAC contractors get busy when it gets this cold. In any case, having heat is more than a luxury. Having heat is an essential necessity. Because about 85 percent of the repairs we make on furnace breakdowns are things that could have been prevented with maintenance (at a lower cost) we suggest making an appointment with us in the fall. By having maintenance annually prior to the heating season, you’re able to prevent most of the furnace problems you’ll ever have to deal with and not have to risk losing heat when you need it most.
PROLONG EQUIPMENT LIFESPAN
MAINTAIN FACTORY WARRANTIES ON EQUIPMENT
When we at Bridgetown Heating & Cooling install a new heating system, we provide each customer with a warranty from the furnace’s maker. This warranty coverage requires maintenance performed by a NATE-certified HVAC technician annually in order to remain valid. If the customer fails to have maintenance performed, the warranty is no longer good. If a warranty is void and a part fails, the customer has to pay for the repairs out of pocket, with their on own money. We suggest playing smart and playing it safe when it comes to expensive furnace systems: Our furnace maintenance services keep your home heating system protected from any potential manufacturing flaws.
IMPROVED HOME AIR QUALITY
Did you know that the air quality in your home can be up to ten times worse than the air outside? It seems crazy, but it’s true! If you’re an allergy sufferer, this is particularly bad news for you. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution that can reduce your exposure to harmful particles in your home. Yes, a tune-up really does improve air quality! This is because a good chunk of the dust, debris, mold, and pollen that finds its way into your home winds up going through the HVAC system—and then circulating back into your living space until it’s cleaned out.

Furnace Maintenance FAQ
How do I ensure my heating system runs smoothly?
In addition to having heating system tune-ups performed consistently, replacing the air filter in your furnace reduces the risks of furnace breakdowns and ensures proper airflow. Airflow is extremely vital with all types of HVAC units. A clean air filter guarantees the air is able to move through the HVAC system properly and helps the furnace run more efficiently. When an air filter becomes clogged, the furnace is forced to work much harder to push the air out into the home. This adds stress to the system and increases wear and tear. This increases the likelihood of furnace problems.
How do I avoid furnace problems?
Your best defense against furnace problems is preventative maintenance. We cannot emphasize the importance of seasonal maintenance enough. By properly maintaining your heating system, our HVAC technicians are enabled to find minor issues and give you the opportunity to address them before they cause major breakdowns. This helps homeowners reduce the wear and tear on their HVAC unit and even avoid premature failure. The types of cleanings and essential tasks performed as part of furnace maintenance are effective in protecting the heating equipment while improving the furnace’s efficiency and optimizing home comfort.
How much does furnace installation usually cost?
If it’s not maintained the way it needs to be, homeowners and building owners usually need to replace their heating systems much sooner than necessary. A new furnace or heating system can cost anywhere from $1,500 to $7,200 and more. The price depends on the model you pick and the size of your house. Commercial HVAC systems can cost a lot more depending on the size of the commercial space. The average cost of installing a mid-efficiency heating system, nevertheless, is between $1,500 to $2,500. Mid-efficiency furnaces have an annual fuel utilization efficiency (AFUE) rating of 80 to 89 percent.
