Only about 55% of home owners have their heating equipment professionally
serviced at least once a year, according to a recent survey of home owners
across the country.
They're the smart ones, because
an annual heating system "clean & check" tune-up is one of the best home
maintenance investments you can make.
But what about the 45% of home
owners who neglect annual maintenance?
They pay the following
penalties:
Fuel bills will rise as much as
10-15% as a result of inefficient equipment operation. It's like having a
fireplace that burns money.
Accelerated equipment wear.
Annual maintenance extends equipment life by as much as 20 - 30%. This
translates into an additional 5 - 10 years of usage for your furnace or boiler.
Most service contractors will
tell you that about 80% of all repairs they do could have been avoided with
regular maintenance. Heating system and furnace repairs typically run into
the hundreds of dollars more fuel for that money burning fireplace.
Most important, annual heating
inspections can save your life and the lives of your loved ones. Small cracks in
a heat exchanger or problems with the flue system could allow deadly carbon
monoxide gas to seep into your home. A trained service technician knows how to
spot danger signs in the system.
Modern heating equipment is very
sophisticated. The well equipped service technician has an array of electronic
measuring devices and tools to properly service these units; unfortunately many
of today's servicemen still operate with the old "eyeballing" methods, such as
adjusting the flame on a burner merely by looking at its color.
They are simply not up to the
task of keeping a modern heating system operating at peak efficiency.
Always put your trust in a
qualified, properly equipped technician.
