Tips for Fall Preparation on your homes Heating System

With Fall just around the corner
Homeowners may start thinking about turning on their heater for the first time in several months.  However, there are a few things you may want to think about doing to prepare your heater for the Fall and Winter. 

Here’s some Hot Tips On How to Prepare Your Heater for the Fall Season:

Heating Maintenance

It's time to consider getting a professional look at your HVAC for efficiency and effectiveness before the cold weather really arrives. When your HVAC technicians visit your home, they will perform a thorough inspection of your heating system. They will clean out all of the components, lubricate the motors, check the electrical and fuel systems, and they will also alert you to any problems that they might find. Doing this can help you find any small issues early and clear out any problems that could have developed over the summer. There are a few very important benefits to doing this including:
  • Reduced repair bills in the future
  • Increased efficiency now
  • Extended equipment life


Change Air Filter 



Another important thing to do for your heating system is to change the air filter. If you’re like many homeowners, then your air conditioning system likely uses the same air filter to keep dust and dirt from getting into its moving parts. Changing the air filter after all the summer use that your AC got could help keep air flowing freely through the system.

Experts recommend that you have your HVAC system professionally inspected every Fall and Spring.

What to do when it's time to replace a HVAC unit.



No body likes to hear the words, "You're going to have to replace your Air Conditioning unit. 
But, just a little research can help you defer some of the costs of a new unit.  Here are some things to check on when it's time:

1) Check for rebates from manufacturer's on units.
Note: Keep in mind that these offers usually apply to their most expensive models, so you may be able to get a better deal by purchasing a mid-level unit that isn't eligible for a manufacturer's rebate.

3) If you have time, get more than one quote to ensure you are getting the best buy.
Note: Remember to research your contractor through Google, the Better Business Bureau, Yelp or online.  The cheapest quote sometimes means you get cheap work. Choose wisely.

4) Get off season discounts.  Installing a new unit in the Fall or Spring may allow your HVAC contractor to offer you a discount because they don't have a peak workload.

5) Check your Energy Star rating on a new unit.  Although, it may appear to be more costly, these units pay dividends in energy savings for many years.


6) Research HVAC financing options.  No interest offers can mean that you don't have to dive into savings if you pay it back within the promotional period.
You can have some piece of mind when you have to make a big purchase and replace your Air Conditioner if you follow a few of the steps above.
