Keep your family safe--and warm--with regular furnace maintenance

GOODYEAR, Ariz. - Nov. 23, 2018 - PRLog -- Heating system maintenance in Phoenix is just as important as in any other part of the country. "Having your heating system serviced by our reputable heating specialists before the start of the cold weather can reduce your heating utility bill by as much as 10 percent," says Bryce Heffelfinger, owner of A/C Expertek in Goodyear. "Additionally, a tune-up (HVAC System Maintenance) can save you from the discomfort and expense of a breakdown of your heating system."

There's also the safety of your family to consider when the weather in Arizona starts to dip into the 40's. While residents in the Phoenix area don't have to face the harshest winters in the country, regular heater and furnace maintenance can save you from having to spend a night in a hotel while your home gets back to livable temperatures. "Don't get left out in the cold," Heffelfinger warns.

Dangers of Avoiding Furnace Maintenance

It isn't just chilly winter nights that can be avoided with regular heating system maintenance. Incomplete combustion in gas heating systems can produce dangerous gasses, including tasteless, odorless carbon monoxide. A crack in a heat exchanger can set harmful gasses circulating throughout your home, causing health problems for your family (a worst case scenario includes asphyxiation). A suspected gas leak can be difficult, if not impossible, to detect due to the nature of the gas. "Making sure your heater is kept up by a heating maintenance company is the best way to be on top of any dangerous heating and furnace problems that may come your way," Heffelfinger advises.
