Maintain your furnace during the winter months so it can stay in the best condition. Maintaining your furnace during the winter months is essential to ensure that it operates efficiently and reliably, and to prevent any unexpected breakdowns. Here are some tips for maintaining your furnace during the winter.
What to Inspect
Change the air filter regularly: A dirty air filter can reduce the airflow and efficiency of your furnace, and can also cause damage to the furnace itself. Check the filter at least once a month and replace it if it is dirty. Keep the area around the furnace clean: Remove any clutter or debris around the furnace to ensure proper airflow and prevent fire hazards. If you hear any odd noises, make sure the area is clean and clear of any clutter.
