Getting your furnace serviced in September is a smart move for a bunch of reasons – the weather is just right, it’s good timing, and we’re heading into fall and then winter. Here at Centerville Heating & Cooling, we want to help you get ready for the chilly months ahead! If you skip the safety and tune-up check, you might miss some issues with your furnace that could cause problems when you need it the most. So, let’s chat about the four reasons why tuning up your furnace in September is such a great idea!
Reason Number One: The Weather Is Actually Perfect for a Fall Tune-up
You might be wondering, “Why now?” Well, it actually makes a lot of sense to get your furnace tune-up done this month. According to industry standards, it’s best to have your furnace checked and tuned up before you fire it up for the season. For most folks, that means scheduling this service at the end of summer or the beginning of fall. Just a heads up, fall officially kicks off on September 22nd this year!
Just a heads up—when we service your furnace, we’ll need to shut it off so our techs can inspect it safely and thoroughly. So, scheduling your HVAC service this month is perfect timing with the weather!
Reason Number Two: It’s the Best Time of the Year to Schedule a Fall Tune-up
Hey there! As we move through the year, HVAC repairs, replacements, and upgrades are super popular. But come fall, the demand for air conditioners drops way down, so September isn’t quite as hectic. What does this mean for you? It means you can snag an appointment without the crazy wait! Don’t wait until the last minute—get your tune-up and safety check scheduled now!
Reason Number Three: Winter is On the Way, So Book Your Fall Tune-up Now
Winter, spring, summer, fall… we all know what comes next! So why not get ready for the chilly season now? It’s a smart move to schedule your annual furnace tune-up and safety check in early fall if you can. After all, you want your heating unit ready to tackle Ohio’s freezing winter ahead!
Think about it. The last thing you need in the dead of winter is for your furnace to start acting up, especially when it could have very much been prevented by simply scheduling your tune-up in the fall.
Reason Number Four: Book a Fall Tune-up for Safety Reasons
Did you know that carbon monoxide poisoning is pretty common in winter? That’s mainly because we tend to use our furnaces, chimneys, and gas lines more during the colder months. According to the National Safety Council, it’s a good idea to have your furnace, water heater, or any coal-burning appliance checked by a licensed technician at least once a year.
By keeping up with your yearly furnace checkups, you not only ensure it runs smoothly during the chilly months but also give your technician a chance to spot and fix any potential issues before they become big problems. Stay safe and warm!
In short, we firmly believe that scheduling your fall HVAC tune-up in September is the best move if you can swing it. But hey, we get it—life can be hectic, and things can get pushed back. If September slips away from you, don’t worry! You can still book your furnace tune-up in October or even early November.
And here’s a final “bonus” reason: staying on top of your annual furnace maintenance checks helps keep your manufacturer’s warranty valid! If that’s not a no-brainer way to get your tune-up scheduled, we don’t know what is!
