Furnace cleaning is an important aspect in maintaining the longevity of your investment. Regularly keeping up with cleanings can help your machine last as long as possible, while efficiently heating your space.
It’s recommended to have your furnace cleaned out every 1-2 years, and here’s why:
- Efficiency – A furnace filled with dust and buildup is not going to be able to do its job as efficiently as a clean one. When the system is dirty, it uses more energy to heat your space. Ensuring that your furnace is clean and has no further issues can save you money on electric bills.
- Longevity – Keeping a machine running for years to come requires proper upkeep. Cleaning out dust, dirt, and dander that has accumulated in the system supports a long-lasting furnace. When properly maintained, furnaces can last from 10 years to 15 years without having to be replaced.
- Air quality – Dust and debris in your home’s heating system permeate into the air you’re breathing. Keeping your furnace clean has more to do with the air quality in your home than you imagine. If you or your family suffer from allergies or asthma, it’s important to stay on top of cleaning.
- Safety – While not common, an unkept furnace can potentially cause safety issues. Dangerous gas leaks and excess heat can cause issues. A furnace cleaning service can help catch potential threats.
