Let Forbes Refrigeration & HVAC provide you with the furnace maintenance services you need.
The Importance of Maintaining Your Furnace
The temperatures in Scottsdale, AZ, typically stay on the warmer side throughout the year, but they can drop down into the 30s during the chilly winter months. Ensure your HVAC system is ready to go when it gets cold outside by performing the proper furnace maintenance. Working your way down a furnace maintenance checklist can benefit your heating system in many ways.
Optimal Performance and Efficiency
The average American home collects more than 40 pounds of dust and debris each year. If you aren’t careful, it can end up stuck in your HVAC system. Replacing the air filters in your furnace regularly can stop dust and debris from impacting its performance and efficiency.
During the furnace maintenance process, Forbes Refrigeration & HVAC can help you by:
- Inspecting your air filter and replacing it as necessary.
- Evaluating HVAC components and lubricating them as needed.
- Replacing worn-out parts.
These simple steps can improve the airflow within your Scottsdale, AZ, home’s heating system and make it more efficient. They can also lower your energy bills and allow your furnace to heat your home more consistently.
Prevention of Breakdowns and Costly Repairs
Any number of things can go wrong with your home’s furnace when you rely on it to heat your Scottsdale, AZ, home. Faulty starting mechanisms, broken blower components, and malfunctioning heat exchangers are just a few of the most common furnace problems homeowners face. Scheduling furnace maintenance can reduce the chances of you experiencing these issues.
During furnace maintenance, an HVAC technician from Forbes Refrigeration & HVAC can catch small problems before they spiral out of control. By addressing them early on, you can prevent furnace breakdowns at inopportune times and avoid costly repairs.
Safety Assurance
Carbon monoxide poisoning has become a big problem in the U.S. About 400 people die from CO poisoning each year, and more than 100,000 Americans take trips to emergency rooms every year after CO exposure.
CO poisoning is often the result of faulty furnaces that allow this colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas to leak out into homes. Forbes Refrigeration & HVAC can check your furnace for gas and CO leaks and eliminate the health risks associated with them.
Extended Lifespan of the Furnace
The average furnace lasts for 15 to 20 years. You may find yourself replacing your home’s furnace sooner than that if you don’t prioritize furnace maintenance. Maintaining your heating system can keep everything from its blower motor to its combustion chamber around for a longer time.
Warranty Compliance and Protection
Many new furnaces come with 10-year limited parts warranties and 20-year heat exchanger warranties through furnace manufacturers. To keep these warranties intact, you need to:
- Maintain your furnace routinely with help from a licensed HVAC company.
- Keep the inside of your home’s heating system clean.
- Replace faulty furnace parts quickly to stop them from affecting other components.
Forbes Refrigeration & HVAC can help you adhere to the maintenance requirements established by your furnace manufacturer.

FAQs
How often should I schedule furnace maintenance?
You should schedule furnace maintenance at least once each year. However, some homeowners opt to schedule furnace maintenance twice annually, both at the start of the cold season and once it ends.
How do I know when my furnace needs maintenance?
Your home’s furnace may need maintenance if it’s struggling to heat your home, making strange sounds, or emitting bad odors. It might also need maintenance if it’s making your home dustier than usual, sending your energy bills skyrocketing, or constantly short-cycling.
What’s included in a furnace tune-up?
During a furnace tune-up, an HVAC technician can clean dust and debris out of your home’s heating system, lubricate moving parts, and adjust the tension of your fan belt. They can also tighten electrical connections, clean your burner, and look for any signs of wear and tear during furnace maintenance.
