Don’t Let Winter Weather Leave You in the Cold
When temperatures start to drop, the last thing any homeowner wants is a malfunctioning heating system. Thompson Plumbing, Heating & AC understands that a reliable furnace isn’t just about comfort—it’s about safety and peace of mind during the coldest months of the year.
Regular maintenance is the cornerstone of a well-functioning heating system, and there are several key steps homeowners should take to ensure optimal performance. Let’s explore some essential maintenance tips that can help prevent unexpected breakdowns and costly repairs.
Preventative Maintenance Checklist:
- Replace or clean air filters monthly during peak heating season
- Check and clean vents and ductwork
- Inspect the thermostat for accurate temperature readings
- Listen for unusual noises that might indicate mechanical issues
