Why Schedule a Tune-Up?
Here are the benefits you and your heating system can gain from scheduling a fall tune-up:
- Increased energy efficiency – your heating system was made to operate at a certain level of energy efficiency. When it is worn and dirty, it is very hard for the system to achieve this.
- Helps prevents repair – your technician conducts a thorough inspection of your system during a maintenance appointment to detect any existing or developing problems. This, coupled with the cleaning, adjusting and lubrication the components receive, helps prevent repair needs.
- Extends life of your system – maintenance keeps your system and its components in good working order; this helps reduce the level of wear and tear on your system, which can help extend the life of your equipment.
It is strongly recommended that you schedule a tune-up for your heating system in Yardley every 12 months.
