Alberta based Advanpro Duct Cleaning Calgary recently issued a public advisory on the importance of regular furnace cleaning and maintenance, especially in light of the current cold snap in Canada.
“When the outside weather is freezing cold, your furnace needs all the help it can get in order to keep your home warm. By ensuring that you have a clean furnace even before the winter season starts, your heating system can effectively do its job without putting too much strain on your equipment,” said Rhys Evans from Advanpro Duct Cleaning Calgary.
Evans explained that there are a number of ways to ensure that a furnace can cope up with extreme cold weather. He advised homeowners to keep their air filter clean in order to prevent the furnace from working harder than it needs to. He also recommended that the thermostat temperature setting not be lowered, even when nobody is at home, because it would be more difficult for the heating equipment to build back warmth inside the house when it is excessively cold outside. “Also, some furnaces might not be able to bring your home temperature all the way up to your desired level, so instead of cranking up your thermostat, you can instead wear warmer clothes and use thicker blankets to keep yourself warm,” he said.
In addition, he stated that it is very important to ensure that all the air vents are free from obstruction, especially those that are located close to ground level, to prevent the system from having any performance or safety issues. “Furthermore, you can always ask a neighbor to check on your house when you are gone. Once a furnace malfunctions during a severely cold weather, your home is more susceptible to having frozen pipes,” he warned.
Meanwhile, the Advanpro furnace cleaning experts also issued a number of useful tips and guidelines on how to properly take care of a household’s heating system. They said that a furnace failure doesn’t happen overnight or abruptly, and it displays definite and unique signs of potential breakdown way before it stops running entirely. Due to this, they advised homeowners to take preventive actions once they noticed their furnace generating any unusual noise while in operation. Evans also explained that some of the other telltale signs of a malfunctioning furnace are frequent overheating, a sharp increase in energy bills, and insufficient water and room heating. Furthermore, he mentioned that periodic furnace maintenance, including change of oil, tightening of screws and bolts, lubrication of parts, checking loose connections, replacement of washers and worn out parts, and soldering of cracks helps to optimize fuel consumption and increase the furnace’s overall lifespan.
