Top 5 Furnace Maintenance Tips for a Cozy Spring

March 4, 2025

As spring approaches, it’s the perfect time to give your furnace the attention it deserves. While you may not need as much heat during this season, proper furnace maintenance is essential to ensure your heating system runs efficiently when you need it most. At Airsense Mechanical Heating & Cooling Inc., we are committed to helping you achieve a comfortable and energy-efficient home. By following these five key furnace maintenance tips, you can enjoy consistent warmth, lower energy bills, and peace of mind throughout the year.


1. Schedule a Professional Furnace Inspection

Regular inspections are crucial for preventing potential issues and ensuring your furnace operates at peak performance. Our licensed furnace repair technicians recommend scheduling a professional inspection at least once a year. During this check-up, our experts will perform residential furnace diagnostics, examining all essential components such as the ignition parts, thermostats, and airflow mechanisms. By identifying early warning signs, we can provide timely furnace ignition repair solutions, preventing costly breakdowns and enhancing safety.


2. Replace or Clean Furnace Filters

A clean filter is vital for efficient furnace operation. Dirty filters can restrict airflow, causing your furnace to work harder and consume more energy. Depending on your furnace model, filters should be cleaned or replaced every 1 to 3 months. Regular maintenance not only improves heating efficiency but also contributes to better indoor air quality. For homeowners in Vaughan, Etobicoke, and beyond, our comprehensive furnace servicing plans include filter maintenance to reduce energy costs and prolong the life of your heating system.


3. Check Thermostat Calibration

An inaccurate thermostat can lead to inconsistent temperatures and discomfort in your home. Yearly thermostat calibration services ensure your set temperature matches the actual indoor climate. Our technicians can assist with calibration during routine maintenance visits, ensuring optimal performance. In doing so, we help you maintain a comfortable environment while keeping energy usage in check.


4. Inspect and Clean Air Vents and Ducts

Blocked or dirty air vents and ducts can hinder airflow, forcing your furnace to operate inefficiently. Remove any objects blocking vents and vacuum them regularly to prevent dust buildup. For more thorough cleaning, consider professional duct cleaning services. Ensuring proper airflow through clean ducts minimizes strain on your furnace and enhances indoor air quality, making your home a cozy haven.


5. Test the Safety Controls

Your furnace is equipped with safety controls designed to protect your home from potential hazards. Testing these controls regularly ensures they function properly. Our annual heating maintenance packages include testing safety switches, limit controls, and pilot light sensors. By prioritizing safety, we help prevent issues like carbon monoxide leaks and fuel wastage, keeping your family safe and warm.
