Winter Tune up's And Peak efficiencies

A "Fine Tune" for the Winter Months Ahead.

Fact: your heating system will last longer and conserve precious energy
with regular system maintenance. Here's how and why.

On average, American families spend hundreds if not thousands of dollars
every year to heat and cool their homes. That's the bad news. The good
news is that it's relatively easy to cut those energy costs, and keeping
your heating system finely tuned is a great place to start.

Before we even get to your heating system, however, a word to the wise:
don't wait for the real cold stuff before you check your window caulking.
Beefing up your insulation and upgrading your windows will help cut energy
costs even more.

During a heating system tune up, these are just a few the measures we take
to ensure added comfort, safety, and energy efficiency to help make winter a
warmer experience:

* Inspect the heater and vent pipe;
* Clean or replace the filter;
* Check for ignition or flame failure;
* Check the motor and fan bearings;
* Check burners and controls
* Check safety controls
* Check thermostat
* Perform Combustion Analysis
* And much more.

While we're at it, we may be able to suggest certain "efficiency
modifications" that help to generate more heat with less energy. These
include:

* Reducing the orifice size;
* Installing a new damper's or zoning system; or,
* Replacing the pilot light with an electronic spark ignition (gas).

Here are few energy-saving measures you can employ during your normal
house-keeping routine:

* Clean or change your filter monthly;
* Seal and insulate your air ducts... heat loss from leaky,
uninsulated ducts-especially those in unheated attics and basements-can
reduce the efficiency of your heating system by as much as 30%.
* Vacuum the cobwebs out of your registers;
* Vacuum the fins on baseboard heaters.
