Furnace Maintenance

Furnace Maintenance is Crucial for Efficiency—and Lower Bills

Every heating manufacturer, all local utilities, and all reputable heating and air conditioning contractors know that maintenance is key to ensuring safe operation of your equipment. This service also helps the efficiency of the equipment (which means the appliances use less gas, oil, and/or electricity), and helps prevent costly breakdowns and unhappy surprises during extreme temperatures.

While nothing in this world is foolproof, it is recognized by many experts that maintenance will decrease the number of breakdowns that occur in a home comfort system.

We Maintain Them All—Oil Furnaces and Heat Pumps Included

The experts at West Allis Heating & Air Conditioning can maintain all makes and models of oil and gas furnaces. Gas furnaces are well-recognized for their fuel efficiency, comfort, and minimal impact on the environment. The vast majority of homes and businesses in Southeast Wisconsin appreciate the dependability of these units.

At the same time, there are still some folks who rely on oil furnaces. But it can be difficult to find a company that performs maintenance on them. No worries, our techs remain up-to-date through extensive training on a wide variety of units, so we can assist you promptly and professionally.

Heat pumps are interesting pieces of equipment as they supply both warm and cool air when you need it. They also need annual maintenance to ensure they run properly and are there for your family or business during high and low temperatures.

For a one-inch furnace filter, it is recommended that you change it every month. For a high-efficiency furnace filter (four-inch or larger), it is recommended that you change it every six to 12 months. If you have pets, allergies, or smoke indoors, you may want to change your filter more often.

A tune-up and cleaning is a 15-point service check in which the technician examines the entire system, cleans and inspects all of the heating components, makes sure there are no safety hazards or items that require attention, and provides recommendations and pricing for repairs (if needed).
