The leaves are changing, the air is crisp, and pumpkin spice lattes are back in season. You know what that means… winter is coming! And while we love a cozy night by the fire, no one wants to be left shivering in a cold house because their furnace gave out. That’s why Hoosier Indoor Air is here with a handy Indiana winter HVAC checklist to help you get your furnace winter-ready.
Indiana Winter HVAC Checklist
Follow these simple steps to ensure your home stays warm and comfortable all season long:
Schedule a Professional Inspection and Tune-Up:
This is the most important step! Just like a car needs regular maintenance, so does your furnace. Our expert technicians at Hoosier Indoor Air will thoroughly inspect your system, clean components, lubricate moving parts, and identify any potential issues before they become major problems.
Change Your Air Filters:
A dirty air filter restricts airflow and makes your furnace work harder, which can lead to higher energy bills and even system failure. Change your filters every 1-3 months, or more often if you have pets or allergies.
Make sure all your vents are open and free from obstructions like furniture, curtains, or toys. Dust and vacuum your vents regularly to ensure proper airflow.
Test Your Thermostat:
Make sure your thermostat is working correctly and is set to your desired temperature. Consider upgrading to a programmable thermostat to save energy and maximize comfort.
Inspect for Signs of Damage:
Look for any visible signs of damage or wear and tear, such as rust, cracks, or loose connections. If you notice anything unusual, contact Hoosier Indoor Air immediately.
Consider a Furnace Upgrade:
If your furnace is old, inefficient, or constantly needing repairs, it might be time for an upgrade. New high-efficiency furnaces can significantly reduce your energy bills and improve your home comfort. Plus, with our current Election Season Special, you can save up to $4,000 on a new system!
